We study the geometry of half lightlike submanifolds (M,g,S(TM), S(TM?)) of a semi-Riemannian manifold (M~,g~) of quasi-constant curvature subject to the following conditions; (1) the curvature vector field ? of M~ is tangent to M, (2) the screen distribution S(TM) of M is either totally geodesic or totally umbilical in M, and (3) the co-screen distribution S(TM?) of M is a conformal Killing distribution.

SynopsisClassically the tangent sphere bundles have formed a large class of contact manifolds; their contact structures are not in general regular, however. Specifically we prove that the natural contact structure on the tangent sphere bundle of a compact Riemannian manifold of non-positive constant curvature is not regular.

Let △p1p2p3 be a geodesic triangle on M, a complete 2-dimensional Riemannian manifold of curvature ≥ k, and let [Formula: see text] be its comparison triangle on [Formula: see text] (a complete and simply connected 2-dimensional manifold of constant curvature k). Our main result is that if △p1p2p3 is areable, then its area is not less than that of [Formula: see text].

AbstractA sufficient condition, for a complete submanifold of a Riemannian manifold of positive constant curvature to be umbilical, is given. The condition will be given by an inequality which is established between the length of the second fundamental tensor and the mean curvature.

In this paper, we introduce a Riemannian metric [Formula: see text] and a family of framed f-structures on the slit tangent bundle [Formula: see text] of a Finsler manifold Fn = (M, F). Then we prove that there exists an almost contact structure on the tangent bundle, when this structure is restricted to the Finslerian indicatrix. We show that this structure is Sasakian if and only if Fn is of positive constant curvature 1. Finally, we prove that (i) Fn is a locally flat Riemannian manifold if and only if [Formula: see text], (ii) the Jacobi operator [Formula: see text] is zero or commuting if and only if (M, F) have the zero flag curvature.
