In this paper, we study the pseudo-symmetry of unit tangent sphere bundle. We prove that if the unit tangent sphere bundle $T_1M$ with standard contact metric structure over a locally symmetric $M^n$, $n{\geq}3$ is pseudo-symmetric, then M is of constant curvature.

We developed a method for the solid angle estimation of acetabular coverage of the femoral head in 3D space. The superior half of the femoral head is modeled as part of a sphere. And the tangent lines connecting from a set of points of the acetabular outline to the center of the fitted sphere are obtained. The lines passthrough the unit sphere whose center is the same as that of the femoral head. The interesecting points form a boundary on the unit sphere. With the points on the unit sphere, we calculate the covered area of the femoral headand estimate the solid angle. Solid angle is defined asthe suface area within the boundary on the unit sphere. In this measurements, the solid angle of normal subjects is on an average 4.3(rad) and the corresponding acetabular coverage is 68%. Unlinke the conventional methods, this solid angle estimation shows real 3D acetabular coverage.

We characterize two-point homogeneous spaces M by means of the structural operator $h={\frac{1}{2}}{\mathcal{L}}_{\xi}{\phi}$ or the characteristic Jacobi operator ${\ell}=R({\cdot},{\xi}){\xi}$ on the unit tangent sphere bundles $T_1M$.

We study (n＋3)-dimensional contact three CR submanifolds of a Riemannian manifold with Sasakian three structure and investigate some characterizations of $S^{4r＋3}$(a) $\times$ $S^{4s＋3}$(b) ($a^2$＋ $b^2$=1, 4(r ＋ s) = n - 3) as a contact three CR sub manifold of a (4m＋3)-dimensional unit sphere.

In this paper we derive an integral formula on an (n + 1)-dimensional, compact, minimal contact CR-submanifold M of (n - 1) contact CR-dimension immersed in a unit (2m+1)-sphere $S^{2m+1}$. Using this integral formula, we give a sufficient condition concerning with the scalar curvature of M in order that such a submanifold M is to be a generalized Clifford torus.

We show many examples of curves on the unit 2-sphere $S^2(1)$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and the unit 3-sphere $S^3(1)$ in $\mathbb{R}^4$. We study whether its curves are Bertrand curves or spherical Bertrand curves and provide some examples illustrating the resultant curves.
