The present paper deals with Lorentzian ${\alpha}-Sasakian$ manifolds with conformally flat and quasi conform ally flat curvature tensor. It is shown that in both cases, the manifold is locally isometric with a sphere $S^{2^{n}+1}(c)$. Further it is shown that an Lorentzian ${\alpha}-Sasakian$ manifold with R(X, Y).C = 0 is locally isometric with a sphere $S^{2^{n}+1}(c)$, where c = ${\alpha}^2$.

Generalized Ricci-recurrent trans-Sasakian manifolds are studied. Among others, it is proved that a generalized Ricci-recurrent cosymplectic manifold is always recurrent Generalized Ricci-recurrent trans-Sasakian manifolds of dimension $\geq$ 5 are locally classified. It is also proved that if M is one of Sasakian, $\alpha$-Sasakian, Kenmotsu or $\beta$-Kenmotsu manifolds, which is gener-alized Ricci-recurrent with cyclic Ricci tensor and non-zero A (ξ) everywhere; then M is an Einstein manifold.

In this study we consider ${\varphi}$-conformally flat, ${\varphi}$-conharmonically flat, ${\varphi}$-projectively at and ${\varphi}$-concircularly flat Lorentzian ${\alpha}$-Sasakian manifolds. In all cases, we get the manifold will be an ${\eta}$-Einstein manifold.

We introduce invariant rigged null hypersurfaces of indefinite almost contact manifolds, by paying attention to those of indefinite nearly α-Sasakian manifolds. We prove that, under some conditions, there exist leaves of the integrable screen distribution of the ambient manifolds admitting nearly α-Sasakian structures.

In this study, we use the generalized Tanaka-Webster connection on a trans-Sasakian manifold of type (${\alpha},{\beta}$) and obtain the curvature tensors of a trans-Sasakian manifold with respect to this connection. Also, we investigate some special curvature conditions of a trans-Sasakian manifold with respect to generalized Tanaka-Webster connection and finally, give an example for trans-Sasakian manifolds.

The aim of present paper is to investigate 3-dimensional ${\xi}$-projectively flt and $\tilde{\varphi}$-projectively flt normal almost paracontact metric manifolds. As a first step, we proved that if the 3-dimensional normal almost paracontact metric manifold is ${\xi}$-projectively flt then ${\Delta}{\beta}=0$. If additionally ${\beta}$ is constant then the manifold is ${\beta}$-para-Sasakian. Later, we proved that a 3-dimensional normal almost paracontact metric manifold is $\tilde{\varphi}$-projectively flt if and only if it is an Einstein manifold for ${\alpha},{\beta}=const$. Finally, we constructed an example to illustrate the results obtained in previous sections.
