TL;DR: In this paper, a new type of curvature tensor called H-curvature tensors of type (1, 3) was introduced, which is a linear combination of conformal and projective curvatures.
Abstract: In this paper, we introduce a new type of curvature tensor named H-curvature tensor of type (1, 3) which is a linear combination of conformal and projective curvature tensors. First we deduce some basic geometric properties of H-curvature tensor. It is shown that a H-flat Lorentzian manifold is an almost product manifold. Then we study pseudo H-symmetric manifolds (PHS)n (n > 3) which recovers some known structures on Lorentzian manifolds. Also, we provide several interesting results. Among others, we prove that if an Einstein (PHS)n is a pseudosymmetric (PS)n, then the scalar curvature of the manifold vanishes and conversely. Moreover, we deal with pseudo H-symmetric perfect fluid spacetimes and obtain several interesting results. Also, we present some results of the spacetime satisfying divergence free H-curvature tensor. Finally, we construct a non-trivial Lorentzian metric of (PHS)4.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the Ricci soliton of an almost Kenmotsu manifold with conformal Reeb foliation is an Einstein metric and Ricci is expanding with λ = 4n.
Abstract: If the metric of an almost Kenmotsu manifold with conformal Reeb foliation is a gradient Ricci soliton, then it is an Einstein metric and the Ricci soliton is expanding. Moreover, let (M2n+1,Φ,ξ,η,g) be an almost Kenmotsu manifold with ξ belonging to the (k,μ)′-nullity distribution and h h≠0. If the metric g of M2n+1 is a gradient Ricci soliton, then M2n+1 is locally isometric to the Riemannian product of an (n+1)-dimensional manifold of constant sectional curvature -4 and a at n-dimensional manifold, also, the Ricci soliton is expanding with λ = 4n.

TL;DR: The Ricci-flat Ricci solitons with the potential vector fields pointwise collinear with the Reeb vector fields on K-almost coKahler manifolds were studied in this article.
Abstract: Let M be a compact almost coKahler manifold. If the metric g of M is a Ricci soliton and the potential vector field is pointwise collinear with the Reeb vector field, then we prove that M is Ricci-flat and coKahler and the soliton g is steady. This generalizes a Goldberg-like conjecture for coKahler manifolds obtained by Cappelletti-Montano and Pastore, namely any compact Einstein K-almost coKahler manifold is coKahler. Without the assumption of compactness, Ricci solitons with the potential vector fields pointwise collinear with the Reeb vector fields on K-almost coKahler manifolds are also studied. Moreover, we prove that there exist no gradient Ricci solitons on proper \({(\kappa, \mu)}\)-almost coKahler manifolds.
