In the present paper, a Riemannian submersion 𝜋 between Riemannian manifolds such that the total space of 𝜋 endowed with a torse-forming vector field 𝜈 is studied. Some remarkable results of such a submersion whose total space is Ricci soliton are given. Moreover, some characterizations about any fiber of 𝜋 or the base manifold B to be an almost quasi-Einstein are obtained.

In this paper, we firstly construct a Hsu-B manifold and give some basic results related to it. Then, we address a semi-symmetric metric F-connection on the Hsu-B manifold and obtain the curvature tensor fields of such connection, and study properties of its curvature tensor and torsion tensor fields.

It was obtained in [5] generalized Lichnerowicz and Obata theorems for Riemannian foliations, which reduce to the results on Riemannian manifolds for the point foliations. Recently in [3], they studied a generalized Obata theorem for Riemannian foliations admitting transversal conformal fields. Each transversal conformal field is a ${\lambda}$-automorphism with ${\lambda}=1-{\frac{2}{q}}$ in the sense of [8]. In the present paper, we extend certain results established in [3] and study Riemannian foliations admitting ${\lambda}$-automorphisms with ${\lambda}{\geq}1-{\frac{2}{q}}$.

We discuss the critical points of the functional $F_{\lambda,\mu}(J,g)=\int_M(\lambda\tau+\mu\tau^*)d\upsilon_g$ on the spaces of all almost Hermitian structures AH(M) with $(\lambda,\mu){\in}R^2-(0,0)$, where $\tau$ and $\tau^*$ being the scalar curvature and the *-scalar curvature of (J, g), respectively. We shall give several characterizations of Kahler structure for some special classes of almost Hermitian manifolds, in terms of the critical points of the functionals $F_{\lambda,\mu}(J,g)$ on AH(M). Further, we provide the almost Hermitian analogy of the Hilbert's result.

In this paper we obtain the condition for the existence of Ricci solitons in nonflat quaternion space form by using Eisenhart problem. Also it is proved that if (g, V, ${\lambda}$) is Ricci soliton then V is solenoidal if and only if it is shrinking, steady and expanding depending upon the sign of scalar curvature. Further it is shown that Ricci soliton in semi-symmetric quaternion space form depends on quaternion sectional curvature c if V is solenoidal.

The object of the present paper is to characterize generalized Ricci recurrent (GR₄) spacetimes. Among others things, it is proved that a conformally flat GR₄ spacetime is a perfect fluid spacetime. We also prove that a GR₄ spacetime with a Codazzi type Ricci tensor is a generalized Robertson Walker spacetime with Einstein fiber. We further show that in a GR₄ spacetime with constant scalar curvature the energy momentum tensor is semisymmetric. Further, we obtain several corollaries. Finally, we cite some examples which are sufficient to demonstrate that the GR₄ spacetime is non-empty and a GR₄ spacetime is not a trivial case.

Let ($M^{2n+1}$, ${\phi}$, ${\xi}$, ${\eta}$, g) be a (k, ${\mu}$)'-almost Kenmotsu manifold with k < -1 which admits a gradient Ricci almost soliton (g, f, ${\lambda}$), where ${\lambda}$ is the soliton function and f is the potential function. In this paper, it is proved that ${\lambda}$ is a constant and this implies that $M^{2n+1}$ is locally isometric to a rigid gradient Ricci soliton ${\mathbb{H}}^{n+1}(-4){\times}{\mathbb{R}}^n$, and the soliton is expanding with ${\lambda}=-4n$. Moreover, if a three dimensional Kenmotsu manifold admits a gradient Ricci almost soliton, then either it is of constant sectional curvature -1 or the potential vector field is pointwise colinear with the Reeb vector field.

The object of the present paper is to study weakly Z symmetric spacetimes $(WZS)_4$. At first we prove that a weakly Z symmetric spacetime is a quasi-Einstein spacetime and hence a perfect fluid spacetime. Next, we consider conformally flat $(WZS)_4$ spacetimes and prove that such a spacetime is infinitesimally spatially isotropic relative to the unit timelike vector field ${\rho}$. We also study $(WZS)_4$ spacetimes with divergence free conformal curvature tensor. Moreover, we characterize dust fluid and viscous fluid $(WZS)_4$ spacetimes. Finally, we construct an example of a $(WZS)_4$ spacetime.

A Kenmotsu manifold $M^n({\phi},\;{\xi},\;{\eta},\;g)$, (n = 2m + 1 > 3) is called a generalized ${\phi}-recurrent$ if its curvature tensor R satisfies $${\phi}^2(({\nabla}_wR)(X,Y)Z)=A(W)R(X,Y)Z+B(W)G(X,Y)Z$$ for all $X,\;Y,\;Z,\;W{\in}{\chi}(M)$, where ${\nabla}$ denotes the operator of covariant differentiation with respect to the metric g, i.e. ${\nabla}$ is the Riemannian connection, A, B are non-vanishing 1-forms and G is given by G(X, Y)Z = g(Y, Z)X - g(X, Z)Y. In particular, if A = 0 = B then the manifold is called a ${\phi}-symmetric$. Now, a Kenmotsu manifold $M^n({\phi},\;{\xi},\;{\eta},\;g)$, (n = 2m + 1 > 3) is said to be generalized ${\phi}-Ricci$ recurrent if it satisfies $${\phi}^2(({\nabla}_wQ)(Y))=A(X)QY+B(X)Y$$ for any vector field $X,\;Y{\in}{\chi}(M)$, where Q is the Ricci operator, i.e., g(QX, Y) = S(X, Y) for all X, Y. In this paper, we study generalized ${\phi}-recurrent$ and generalized ${\phi}-Ricci$ recurrent Kenmotsu manifolds with respect to quarter-symmetric metric connection and obtain a necessary and sufficient condition of a generalized ${\phi}-recurrent$ Kenmotsu manifold with respect to quarter symmetric metric connection to be generalized Ricci recurrent Kenmotsu manifold with respect to quarter symmetric metric connection.

A vector field on a Riemannian manifold (M, g) is called concircular if it satisfies ${\nabla}X^v={\mu}X$ for any vector X tangent to M, where ${\nabla}$ is the Levi-Civita connection and ${\mu}$ is a non-trivial function on M. A smooth vector field ${\xi}$ on a Riemannian manifold (M, g) is said to define a Ricci soliton if it satisfies the following Ricci soliton equation: $$\frac{1}{2}L_{\xi}g+Ric={\lambda}g$$, where $L_{\xi}g$ is the Lie-derivative of the metric tensor g with respect to ${\xi}$, Ric is the Ricci tensor of (M, g) and ${\lambda}$ is a constant. A Ricci soliton (M, g, ${\xi}$, ${\lambda}$) on a Riemannian manifold (M, g) is said to have concircular potential field if its potential field is a concircular vector field. In the first part of this paper we determine Riemannian manifolds which admit a concircular vector field. In the second part we classify Ricci solitons with concircular potential field. In the last part we prove some important properties of Ricci solitons on submanifolds of a Riemannian manifold equipped with a concircular vector field.
