Contact Isotropic Realisations of Jacobi Manifolds via Spencer Operators

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the local and global theory of contact isotropic realisations of Jacobi manifolds, which are those of minimal dimension, and established a relation between the existence of symplectic and contact isotropy realisations for Poisson manifolds.

Generalized globally framed f-space-forms

TL;DR: In this article, generalized globally framed f-space-forms are introduced and the interrelation with generalized Sasakian and generalized complex space-forms is pointed out and suitable differential equations allow to discuss the constancy of the '-sectional curvatures.

A generalization of contact metric manifolds

TL;DR: In this article, the authors give a characterization of a contact metric manifold as a special almost contact manifold, which is a natural generalization of the contact metric manifolds introduced by Y. Tashiro.

Area-stationary and stable surfaces of class $C^1$ in the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group ${\mathbb H}^1$

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider surfaces of class $C^1$ in the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group and show that the regular part of the surface is foliated by horizontal straight lines.

Tight Beltrami fields with symmetry.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided a bound for the volume Vol(M) and the curvature, which implies the universal tightness of the contact structure ξ = ker α.
