Mixed 3-Sasakian structures and curvature

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the properties of the curvature of mixed 3-Sasakian structures, and proved that any manifold endowed with such a structure is Einstein.

Examples of compact K-contact manifolds with no Sasakian metric

TL;DR: Using the Hard Lefschetz Theorem for Sasakian manifolds, this article found two examples of compact K-contact nilmanifolds with no compatible Sasakians in dimensions five and seven, respectively.

Contact real hypersurfaces in the complex hyperbolic quadric

TL;DR: In this article, the geometry of contact real hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature in the complex hyperbolic quadric was discussed and the individual types (two types of tubes around totally geodesic submanifolds and one type of horosphere) that have been found in that classification were studied.

K-contact metrics as Ricci solitons

TL;DR: Ghosh et al. as mentioned in this paper studied Ricci solitons on a Riemannian manifold whose metric is a Ricci tensor and showed that Ricci is a generalization of the Einstein metric and is defined on the manifold by ( £ V g) + 2 S(X,Y) +2 R ij projected from the space of metrics onto its quotient modulodiffeomorphisms and scalings.

Kähler contact distributions

TL;DR: In this paper, the generalized Tanaka connection on contact metric manifolds was introduced and a linear connection ∇ on the contact metric manifold was defined, which enables us to give a characterization in terms of ∇ of a strongly pseudo-convex C R -structure on M.
