For a Legendrian submanifold $M$ of a Sasaki manifold $N$, we study harmonicity and biharmonicity of the corresponding Lagrangian cone submanifold C(M) of a Kaehler manifold C(N). We show that, if $C(M)$ is biharmonic in C(N), then it is harmonic; and $M$ is proper biharmonic in $N$ if and only if C(M) has a non-zero eigen-section of the Jacobi operator with the eigenvalue $m=dim M$.
In this article we consider the concept of biharmonicity about the hypersurfaces in the Sasakian space form which is equipped with the Tanaka-Webster connection.
In [5], D. Fetcu and C. Oniciuc presented the classification result for biharmonic $\mathcal{C}$-parallel Legendrian submanifolds in $7$-dimensional Sasakian space forms. However, it is incomplete. In this paper, all such submanifolds are explicitly determined.
In this paper we provide a local construction of a Sasakian manifold given a Kähler manifold. Obatined in this way manifold we call Sasakian lift of Kähler base. Almost contact metric structure is determined by the operation of the lift of vector fields - idea similar to lifts in Ehresmann connections. We show that Sasakian lift inherits geometry very close to its Kähler base. In some sense geometry of the lift is in analogy with geometry of hypersurface in Kähler manifold. There are obtained structure equations between corresponding Levi-Civita connections, curvatures and Ricci tensors of the…
In this paper, we show that, for every Hermitian vector bundle over a compact Kaehler Einstein manifold, if the projection is biharmonic, then it is harmonic.
A Vaisman manifold is a special kind of locally conformally Kaehler manifold, which is closely related to a Sasaki manifold. In this paper we show a basic structure theorem of simply connected homogeneous Sasaki and Vaisman manifods of unimodular Lie groups, up to holomorphic isometry. For the case of unimodular Lie groups, we obtain a complete classification of simply connected Sasaki and Vaisman unimodular Lie groups, up to modification.
In this paper, we show that the uniform L^4-bound of the transverse Ricci curvature along the Sasaki-Ricci flow on a compact quasi-regular transverse Fano Sasakian (2n+1)-manifold M. When M is dimension up to seven and the space of leaves of the characteristic foliation is well-formed, we first show that any solution of the Sasaki-Ricci flow converges in the Cheeger-Gromov sense to the unique singular orbifold Sasaki-Ricci soliton on the limit space which is a S^1-orbibundle over the unique singular Kaehler-Ricci soliton on a normal projective variety with codimension two orbifold singularitie…
Let $(M,g)$ be a compact Riemannian manifold. Equipping its tangent bundle $TM$ (resp. unit tangent bundle $T_1M$) by a pseudo-Riemannian $g$-natural metric $G$ (resp. $\tilde{G}$), we study the biharmonicty of vector fields (resp. unit vector fields) as maps $(M,g) \rightarrow (TM,G)$ (resp. $(M,g) \rightarrow (T_1M,\tilde{G})$) as well as critical points of the bienergy functional restricted to the set $\mathfrak{X}(M)$ (resp. $\mathfrak{X}^1(M)$) of vector fields (resp. unit tangent bundles) on $M$. Contrary to the Sasaki metric on $TM$, where the two notions are equivalent to the harmonici…
A locally conformally Kaehler (l.c.K.) manifold is a complex manifold admitting a Kaehler covering $\tilde M$, with each deck transformation acting by Kaehler homotheties. A compact l.c.K. manifold is Vaisman if it admits a holomorphic flow acting by non-trivial homotheties on $\tilde M$. We prove a structure theorem for compact Vaisman manifolds. Every compact Vaisman manifold M is fibered over a circle, the fibers are Sasakian, the fibration is locally trivial, and M is reconstructed as a Riemannian suspension from the Sasakian structure on the fibers and the monodromy automorphism induced b…
