Abstract

Purpose

In 1979, P. Wintgen obtained a basic relationship between the extrinsic normal curvature the intrinsic Gauss curvature, and squared mean curvature of any surface in a Euclidean 4-space with the equality holding if and only if the curvature ellipse is a circle. In 1999, P. J. De Smet, F. Dillen, L. Verstraelen and L. Vrancken gave a conjecture of Wintgen inequality, named as the DDVV-conjecture, for general Riemannian submanifolds in real space forms. Later on, this conjecture was proven to be true by Z. Lu and by Ge and Z. Tang independently. Since then, the study of Wintgen’s inequalities and Wintgen ideal submanifolds has attracted many researchers, and a lot of interesting results have been found during the last 15 years. The main purpose of this paper is to extend this conjecture of Wintgen inequality for bi-slant submanifold in conformal Sasakian space form endowed with a quarter symmetric metric connection.

Design/methodology/approach

The authors used standard technique for obtaining generalized Wintgen inequality for bi-slant submanifold in conformal Sasakian space form endowed with a quarter symmetric metric connection.

Findings

The authors establish the generalized Wintgen inequality for bi-slant submanifold in conformal Sasakian space form endowed with a quarter symmetric metric connection, and also find conditions under which the equality holds. Some particular cases are also stated.

Originality/value

The research may be a challenge for new developments focused on new relationships in terms of various invariants, for different types of submanifolds in that ambient space with several connections.

Abstract

Purpose

The author considers an invariant lightlike submanifold M, whose transversal bundle tr(TM) is flat, in an indefinite Sasakian manifold M¯(c) of constant φ¯-sectional curvature c. Under some geometric conditions, the author demonstrates that c=1, that is, M¯ is a space of constant curvature 1. Moreover, M and any leaf M of its screen distribution S(TM) are, also, spaces of constant curvature 1.

Design/methodology/approach

The author has employed the techniques developed by K. L. Duggal and A. Bejancu of reference number 7.

Findings

The author has discovered that any totally umbilic invariant ligtlike submanifold, whose transversal bundle is flat, in an indefinite Sasakian space form is, in fact, a space of constant curvature 1 (see Theorem 4.4).

Originality/value

To the best of the author’s findings, at the time of submission of this paper, the results reported are new and interesting as far as lightlike geometry is concerned.

Abstract

Purpose

In this paper, we consider the Heisenberg groups which play a crucial role in both geometry and theoretical physics.

Design/methodology/approach

In the first part, we retrieve the geometry of left-invariant Randers metrics on the Heisenberg group H2n+1, of dimension 2n + 1. Considering a left-invariant Randers metric, we give the Levi-Civita connection, curvature tensor, Ricci tensor and scalar curvature and show the Heisenberg groups H2n+1 have constant negative scalar curvature.

Findings

In the second part, we present our main results. We show that the Heisenberg group H2n+1 cannot admit Randers metric of Berwald and Ricci-quadratic Douglas types. Finally, the flag curvature of Z-Randers metrics in some special directions is obtained which shows that there exist flags of strictly negative and strictly positive curvatures.

Originality/value

In this work, we present complete Reimannian geometry of left invarint-metrics on Heisenberg groups. Also, some geometric properties of left-invarainat Randers metrics will be studied.

Abstract

Purpose

The authors set the goal to find the solution of the Eisenhart problem within the framework of three-dimensional trans-Sasakian manifolds. Also, they prove some results of the Ricci solitons, η-Ricci solitons and three-dimensional weakly symmetric trans-Sasakian manifolds. Finally, they give a nontrivial example of three-dimensional proper trans-Sasakian manifold.

Design/methodology/approach

The authors have used the tensorial approach to achieve the goal.

Findings

A second-order parallel symmetric tensor on a three-dimensional trans-Sasakian manifold is a constant multiple of the associated Riemannian metric g.

Originality/value

The authors declare that the manuscript is original and it has not been submitted to any other journal for possible publication.

Abstract

Purpose

Besse first conjectured that the solution of the critical point equation (CPE) must be Einstein. The CPE conjecture on some other types of Riemannian manifolds, for instance, odd-dimensional Riemannian manifolds has considered by many geometers. Hence, it deserves special attention to consider the CPE on a certain class of almost contact metric manifolds. In this direction, the authors considered CPE on almost f-cosymplectic manifolds.

Design/methodology/approach

The paper opted the tensor calculus on manifolds to find the solution of the CPE.

Findings

In this paper, in particular, the authors obtained that a connected f-cosymplectic manifold satisfying CPE with \lambda=\tilde{f} is Einstein. Next, the authors find that a three dimensional almost f-cosymplectic manifold satisfying the CPE is either Einstein or its scalar curvature vanishes identically if its Ricci tensor is pseudo anti‐commuting.

Originality/value

The paper proved that the CPE conjecture is true for almost f-cosymplectic manifolds.

Abstract

In this paper some characterizations for the existence of warped product pointwise semi-slant submanifolds of cosymplectic space forms are obtained. Moreover, a sharp estimate for the squared norm of the second fundamental form is investigated, the equality case is also discussed. By the application of derived inequality, we compute an expression for Dirichlet energy of the involved warping function. Finally, we also proved some classifications for these warped product submanifolds in terms of Ricci solitons and Ricci curvature. A non-trivial example of these warped product submanifolds is provided.

Abstract

Chen (2001) initiated the study of CR-warped product submanifolds in Kaehler manifolds and established a general inequality between an intrinsic invariant (the warping function) and an extrinsic invariant (second fundamental form).

In this paper, we establish a relationship for the squared norm of the second fundamental form (an extrinsic invariant) of warped product bi-slant submanifolds of Kenmotsu manifolds in terms of the warping function (an intrinsic invariant) and bi-slant angles. The equality case is also considered. Some applications of derived inequality are given.

The purpose of the study is to obtain and analyze vibro-acoustic characteristics.

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of the study is to obtain and analyze vibro-acoustic characteristics.

Design/methodology/approach

A unified analysis model for the rotary composite laminated plate and conical–cylindrical double cavities coupled system is established. The related parameters of the unified model are determined by isoparametric transformation. The modified Fourier series are applied to construct the admissible displacement function and the sound pressure tolerance function of the coupled systems. The energy functional of the structure domain and acoustic field domain is established, respectively, and the structure–acoustic coupling potential energy is introduced to obtain the energy functional. Rayleigh–Ritz method was used to solve the energy functional.

Findings

The displacement and sound pressure response of the coupled systems are acquired by introducing the internal point sound source excitation, and the influence of relevant parameters of the coupled systems is researched. Through research, it is found that the impedance wall can reduce the amplitude of the sound pressure response and suppress the resonance of the coupled systems. Besides, the composite laminated plate has a good noise reduction effect.

Originality/value

This study can provide the theoretical guidance for vibration and noise reduction.
