Let (M,g) be a surface and let (U(TM),G) be the unit tangent bundle of M endowed with the Sasaki metric. We know that any curve Γ(s) in U(TM) consist of a curve γ(s) in M and as unit vector field X(s) along γ(s). In this paper we study the geometric properties γ(s) and X(s) satisfying when Γ(s) is a slant geodesic.

Abstract We define a class of metrics that extend the Sasaki metric of the tangent manifold of a Riemannian manifold. The new metrics are obtained by the transfer of the generalized (pseudo-)Riemannian metrics of the pullback bundle π−1(TM⊕T*M), where π : T M → M is the natural projection. We obtain the expression of the transferred metric and define a canonical metric connection with torsion. We calculate the torsion, curvature and Ricci curvature of this connection and give a few applications of the results. We also discuss the transfer of generalized complex and generalized Kähler structures from the pullback bundle to the tangent manifold.
