On para-Kenmotsu manifolds

Abstract

In this paper we study para-Kenmotsu manifolds. We characterize this manifolds by tensor equations and study their properties. We are devoted to a study of $\eta -$Einstein manifolds. We show that a conformally flat para-Kenmotsu manifold is a space of constant negative curvature $-1$ and we prove that if a para-Kenmotsu manifold is a space of constant $\phi -$para-holomorphic sectional curvature $H$, then it is a space of constant curvature and $H=-1$. Finally the object of the present paper is to study a 3-dimensional para-Kenmotsu manifold, satisfying certain curvature conditions. Among other, it is proved that any 3-dimensional para-Kenmotsu manifold with $\eta -$parallel Ricci tensor is of constant scalar curvature and any 3-dimensional para-Kenmotsu manifold satisfying cyclic Ricci tensor is a manifold of constant negative curvature $-1$.
