Certain class of almost cosymplectic manifolds with Kählerian leaves (Q6042147): Difference between revisions

This paper investigates a certain class of almost cosymplectic manifolds. The authors work on a \((2n+1)\)-dimensional manifold \(M\) that carries an almost contact structure with a tensor field \(\phi\) of type \((1,1)\), a vector field \(\xi\) and a one-form \(\eta\) that satisfy \(\phi^2 = I + \eta \otimes \xi\), where \(\eta(\xi) = 1\). An almost contact metric structure on \(M\) consists of \((\phi, \xi, \eta, g)\), where \(g\) is a Riemannian metric on \(M\) such that \(g(\phi X, \phi Y) = g(X, Y) - \eta(X) \eta(Y)\) for any vector fields \(X\) and \(Y\) on \(M\). The fundamental two-form on \(M\) is defined by \(\Phi (X,Y) = g(X, \phi Y)\). The manifold \(M\) is called almost cosymplectic if the forms \(\eta\) and \(\Phi\) are closed. Two tensor fields are of special interest here: \(h = \frac{1}{2} \mathcal{L}_\xi \phi\) and \(h' = \phi \circ h\) (\(\mathcal{L}\) represents the Lie derivative with respect to \(\xi\)). The authors focus on almost cosymplectic manifolds with Kählerian leaves and \(\eta\)-parallel tensor field \(h'\). They prove that there is a distribution of eigenvalues of \(h'\) with totally umbilical leaves and foliations whose leaves are almost Kählerian manifolds immersed in almost cosymplectic manifolds as hypersurfaces.
