Certain types of metrics on almost coKähler manifolds

TLDR
In this article, it was shown that Bach flat almost coKahler manifold admits Ricci solitons, satisfying the critical point equation (CPE) or Bach flat.
Abstract
In this paper, we study an almost coKahler manifold admitting certain metrics such as $$*$$ -Ricci solitons, satisfying the critical point equation (CPE) or Bach flat. First, we consider a coKahler 3-manifold (M, g) admitting a $$*$$ -Ricci soliton (g, X) and we show in this case that either M is locally flat or X is an infinitesimal contact transformation. Next, we study non-coKahler $$(\kappa ,\mu )$$ -almost coKahler metrics as CPE metrics and prove that such a g cannot be a solution of CPE with non-trivial function f. Finally, we prove that a $$(\kappa , \mu )$$ -almost coKahler manifold (M, g) is coKahler if either M admits a divergence free Cotton tensor or the metric g is Bach flat. In contrast to this, we show by a suitable example that there are Bach flat almost coKahler manifolds which are non-coKahler.
