  • The aim of this paper is two-fold. First, we study the Chinea-Gonzalez class C12 of almost contact metric manifolds and we discuss some fundamental properties. We show there is a one-to-one correspondence between C12 and Kählerian structures. Secondly, we give some basic results for Riemannian curvature tensor of C12-manifolds and then establish equivalent relations among 𝜑-sectional curvature. Concrete examples are given.

  • Arrivals of Hilbert and Minkowski at $G\ddot{o}ttingen$ put mathematical science there in full flourish. They further extended its strong mathematical tradition of Gauss and Riemann. Though Riemann envisioned Finsler metric and gave an example of it in his inaugural lecture of 1854, Finsler geometry was officially named after Minkowski's academic grandson Finsler. His tool to generalize Riemannian geometry was the calculus of variations of which his advisor $Carath\acute{e}odory$ was a master. Another $G\ddot{o}ttingen$ graduate Busemann regraded Finsler geometry as a special case of geometry of metric spaces. He was a student of Courant who was a student of Hilbert. These figures all at $G\ddot{o}ttingen$ created and developed Finsler geometry in its early stages. In this paper, we investigate history of works on Finsler geometry contributed by these frontiers.

  • The object of the present paper is to study a semi-symmetric metric connection in an (${\varepsilon}$)-Kenmotsu manifold. In this paper, we study a semi-symmetric metric connection in an (${\varepsilon}$)-Kenmotsu manifold whose projective curvature tensor satisfies certain curvature conditions.

  • Let M be a real hypersurface with almost contact metric structure $(\phi,\;\xi,\;\eta,\;g)$ in a nonflat complex space form $M_n(c)$. In this paper, we prove that if the structure Jacobi operator $R_\xi$ commutes with both the structure tensor $\phi$ and the Ricc tensor S, then M is a Hopf hypersurface in $M_n(c)$ provided that the mean curvature of M is constant or $g(S\xi,\;\xi)$ is constant.

  • Let M be a real hypersurface with almost contact metric structure (${\phi}$, ${\xi}$, ${\eta}$, g) in a nonflat complex space form $M_n(c)$. We denote by A and S be the shape operator and the Ricci tensor of M respectively. In the present paper we investigate real hypersurfaces with $g(SA{\xi},\;A{\xi})=const$. of $M_n(c)$ whose structure Jacobi operator $R_{\xi}$ commute with both ${\phi}$ and S. We give a characterization of Hopf hypersurfaces of $M_n(c)$.

  • Let M be a real hypersurface of a complex space form with almost contact metric structure (${\phi}$, ${\xi}$, ${\eta}$, g). In this paper, we prove that if the structure Jacobi operator $R_{\xi}= R({\cdot},{\xi}){\xi}$ is ${\phi}{\nabla}_{\xi}{\xi}$-parallel and $R_{\xi}$ commute with the structure tensor ${\phi}$, then M is a homogeneous real hypersurface of Type A provided that $TrR_{\xi}$ is constant.

  • Let $x : M^n \longrightarrow E^m$ be an isometric immersion of an n-dimensional connected Riemannian manifold into the m-dimensional Euclidean space. Then the metric tensor on $M^n$ is naturally induced from that of $E^m$.

  • Recently, many mathematicians([NT], [Ka], [TV], [CW], etc.) studied foliated structures on a smooth manifold with the viewpoint of transversal differential geometry. In this paper, we shall discuss certain hermitian foliations F on a riemannian manifold with a bundle-like metric, that is, their transversal bundles to F have hermitian structures.
