A geodesic γ on the unit tangent sphere bundle T1M of a Riemannian manifold (M, g), equipped with the Sasaki metric gS, can be considered as a curve x on M together with a unit vector field V along it. We study the curves x. In particular, we investigate for which manifolds (M, g) all these curves have constant first curvature κ1 or have vanishing curvature κi for some i = 1, 2 or 3.

Abstract.We show that any Killing vector field on the unit tangent sphere bundle with Sasaki metric of a space of constant curvature k ≠ 1 is fiber preserving by studying some property of geodesies on the bundle. As a consequence, any Killing vector field on the unit tangent sphere bundle of a space of constant curvature k ≠ 1 can be extended to a Killing vector field on the tangent bundle.

AbstractWe study the geometric properties of a base manifold whose unit tangent sphere bundle, equipped with the standard contact metric structure, is H-contact. We prove that a necessary and sufficient condition for the unit tangent sphere bundle of a four-dimensional Riemannian manifold to be H-contact is that the base manifold is 2-stein.

Abstract In this paper, we consider the tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold (M, g) with g-natural metrics and among all of these metrics, we specify those with respect to which the unit tangent sphere bundle with induced g-natural metric is totally geodesic. Also, we equip the unit tangent sphere bundle T1M with g-natural contact (paracontact) metric structures, and we show that such structures are totally geodesic K-contact (K-paracontact) submanifolds of TM, if and only if the base manifold (M, g) has positive (negative) constant sectional curvature. Moreover, we establish a condition for g-natural almost contact B-metric structures on T1Msuch that these structures be totally geodesic submanifolds of TM.
