In this paper we introduce new notions of Ricci-like tensor and many kind of curvature-like tensors such that concircular, projective, or conformal curvature-like tensors defined on semi-Riemannian manifolds. Moreover, we give some geometric conditions which are equivalent to the Codazzi tensor, the Weyl tensor, or the second Bianchi identity concerned with such kind of curvature-like tensors respectively and also give a generalization of Weyl's Theorem given in [18] and [19].

In this paper we consider gradient almost Ricci solitons with weak conditions on Weyl and Bach tensors. We show that a gradient almost Ricci soliton has harmonic Weyl curvature if it has fourth order divergence-free Weyl tensor, or it has divergence-free Bach tensor. Furthermore, if its Weyl tensor is radially flat, we prove such a gradient almost Ricci soliton is locally a warped product with Einstein fibers. Finally, we prove a rigidity result on compact gradient almost Ricci solitons satisfying an integral condition.

In this paper, we study Einstein-type manifolds generalizing static spaces and V-static spaces. We prove that if an Einstein-type manifold has non-positive complete divergence of its Weyl tensor and non-negative complete divergence of Bach tensor, then M has harmonic Weyl curvature. Also similar results on an Einstein-type manifold with complete divergence of Riemann tensor are proved.

In this paper, we decompose the curvature tensor (field) on the homogeneous Riemannian manifold SU(3)=T (k, l) with an arbitrarily given SU(3)-invariant Riemannian metric into three curvature-like tensor fields, and investigate geometric properties.

For complete Riemannian manifolds with vanishing Bach tensor and positive constant scalar curvature, we provide a rigidity theorem characterized by some pointwise inequalities. Furthermore, we prove some rigidity results under an inequality involving $L^{\frac{n}{2}}$-norm of the Weyl curvature, the traceless Ricci curvature and the Sobolev constant.

In this paper, we introduce the notion of stress-energy tensor Q of the traceless Ricci tensor for Riemannian manifolds (Mⁿ, g), and investigate harmonicity of Riemannian curvature tensor and Weyl curvature tensor when (M, g) satisfies some geometric structure such as critical point equation or vacuum static equation for smooth functions.

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.

In this paper, we firstly define the Ricci mean value along the gradient vector field of the Ricci potential function and show that it is non-negative on a compact Ricci soliton. Furthermore a Ricci soliton is Einstein if and only if its Ricci mean value is vanishing. Finally, we obtain a compact Ricci soliton $(M^n,g)(n{\geq}3)$ is Einstein if its Weyl curvature tensor and the Kulkarni-Nomizu product of Ricci curvature are orthogonal.

We classify complete, locally homogeneous metrics with finite volume on four-dimensional manifolds which are critical points for the squared $L^2-norm$ functionals of either the full Riemannian curvature tensor or the Weyl curvature tensor defined on the space of Riemannian metrics.
