Keywords Curvature identity Quasi contact metric manifold Mathematics Subject Classification (010) 53C5 53D15 1 Introduction An odd dimensional smooth manifold M is called an almost contact manifold if it admits a triple (φ, ξ, η) of a (1, 1) tensor field, a vector field ξ and a 1-form η satisfying φ = I + η ξ, φ(ξ) = 0, η φ = 0, (1.1) for any X X(M), X(M) denoting the Lie algebra of all smooth vector fields on M. It is well known that η(ξ) = 1. Further, an almost contact manifold M = (M, φ, ξ, η) equipped with a Riemannian metric g satisfying g(φx, φy ) = g(x, Y ) η(x)η(y ), η(x) = g(ξ, X), (1.) for any X, Y X(M) is called an almost contact metric manifold.

2 Y.D. Chai, J.H. Kim, J.H. Park, K. Sekigawa, W.M. Shin for any X, Y X(M) is called a contact metric manifold. Now, let M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g) be a (n+1)-dimensional almost contact metric manifold and M = M R be the almost Hermitian structure ( J, ḡ) defined by JX = φx η(x) t, J = ξ, (1.4) ( t ḡ(x, Y ) = e t g(x, Y ), ḡ X, ) ( = 0, ḡ t t, ) = e t, t for any X, Y X(M) and t R. Remark 1.1 Let M = M R+ be the product manifold of M and a positive half line R + = {s R s > 0} be equipped with the following almost Hermitian structure ( J, g) defined by JX = φx + sη(x) s, J s = 1 s ξ, g(x, Y ) = s g(x, Y ), g(x, ( s ) = 0, g s, ) = 1, s (1.4 ) for any X, Y X(M) and s R +. Then, it is easily checked that (M, J, ḡ) is holomorphically isometric to ( M, J, g) under the diffeomorphism F : M M defined by F (p, t) = (p, e t ), for any (p, t) M. Taking account of Remark 1.1, we shall call M = (M, J, ḡ) the corresponding almost Hermitian cone to the almost contact metric manifold M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g). It is also checked that M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g) is a Sasakian manifold (resp. a contact metric manifold) if and only if the corresponding almost Hermitian cone M = (M, J, ḡ) is a Kähler manifold (resp. an almost Kähler manifold, see [7]). Gray and Hervella [3] introduced 16 classes of almost Hermitian manifolds. Among their classes, the classes of Kähler manifold K, almost Kähler manifolds AK, nearly Kähler manifolds N K and quasi Kähler manifolds QK have been studied extensively by many authors. The inclusion relations between the classes K, AK, N K and QK are as follows: K = N K AK and AK, N K QK. An almost contact metric manifold M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g) is called a quasi contact metric manifold if the corresponding almost Hermitian cone M = (M, J, ḡ) is a quasi Kähler manifold. Kim, Park and Sekigawa [4] discussed basic properties concerning a quasi contact metric manifold and gave a characterization of a quasi contact metric manifold and further a characterization of a contact metric manifold based on the result. It is well-known that quasi Kähler manifold is necessarily an almost Kähler manifold. Thus, a 3-dimensional quasi contact metric manifold is necessarily a contact metric manifold (see [5]). We refer to [5]. In this paper, we will work on the question Does there exist a (n + 1)(n )-dimensional quasi contact metric manifold which is not a contact metric manifold? which was raised on the previous paper [4]. 350

3 Notes on quasi contact metric manifolds 3 Preliminaries In this section, we prepare some basic terminologies and review the results from the previous paper [4]. Let M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g) be a (n+1)-dimensional almost contact metric manifold and h be the (1, 1) tensor field on M defined by h = 1 ξφ, (.1) here ξ denotes the Lie differentiation with respect to the characteristic vector field ξ. The tensor field h plays an important role in the geometry of almost contact metric manifolds. By the definition (.1), we may easily observe that the tensor field h satisfies the following equalities hξ = 0, trh = 0. (.) We denote by the Levi-Civita connection of g and R the curvature tensor defined by R(X, Y )Z = [ X, Y ]Z [X,Y ] Z, (.3) for any X, Y X(M). We denote by ρ and τ the Ricci tensor and the scalar curvature of M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g), respectively. Further, we denote by ρ and τ the Ricci -tensor and the scalar -curvature of M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g) defined respectively by for any X, Y, Z X(M), and ρ (X, Y ) = 1 tr(z R(X, φy )φz), (.4) where Q is the (1,1) tensor field on M defined by τ = trq, (.5) g(q X, Y ) = ρ (X, Y ), (.6) for any X, Y X(M). Recently, Kim, Park and Sekigawa [4] gave a following characterization of a contact metric manifold. Theorem.1 ([4], Theorem 3.) A contact metric manifold is characterized as an almost contact metric manifold M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g) satisfying the following conditions: h is symmetric, (.7) ( X φ)y + ( φx φ)φy = g(x, Y )ξ η(y )X η(x)η(y )ξ η(y )hx, (.8) for any X, Y X(M). They also proved the following. Theorem. ([4], Theorem 4.) A quasi contact metric manifold is characterized as an almost contact metric manifold M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g) satisfying the condition (.8) in Theorem.1 We here note that the equality (.8) is equivalent to the following on any almost contact metric manifold M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g): ( X φ)y + ( φx φ)φy = g(x, Y )ξ η(y )X + η(y ) φx ξ, (.9) for any X, Y X(M) (see [4], Lemma 4.1). 351

4 4 Y.D. Chai, J.H. Kim, J.H. Park, K. Sekigawa, W.M. Shin Remark.1 For any almost contact metric manifold M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g), the following equalities (.10), (.11) and (.1) are derived from (.8) or (.9): ( X η)y + ( φx η)φy + g(φx, Y )ξ = 0, (.10) for any X, Y X(M) (see [4], Proposition.6). ξ φ = 0, (.11) ξ ξ = 0, (.1) 3 Fundamental formulas In this section, we shall deduce several basic formulas on a quasi contact metric manifold based on the discussions in the previous sections. Let M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g) be a (n+1)-dimensional quasi contact metric manifold. Then, from (.1) and (.5), we see that the tensor field h takes the following form: hx = 1 ( φxξ + φ X ξ), (3.1) for any X X(M). From (3.1), taking account of (.1), we have Setting Y = ξ in (.9), we get hφx = 1 ( φ Xξ + φ φx ξ) = 1 ( Xξ ( φx φ)ξ). (3.) Operating φ to the both sides of (3.3), we have Thus, from (3.) and (3.4), we obtain On one hand, from (3.1) and (3.4), we obtain φ X ξ = η(x)ξ X + φx ξ. (3.3) ( φx φ)ξ = φx X ξ. (3.4) hφx = X ξ + φx. (3.5) φhx = 1 ( φ φxξ + φ X ξ) = 1 (( φxφ)ξ X ξ) = φx X ξ. (3.6) Thus, from (3.5) and (3.6), we have and hφ + φh = 0, (3.7) X ξ = φx φhx, (3.8) for any X X(M). From (3.7), we have η(hφx) = 0 for any X X(M), and hence, also η(hφ X) = η(hx) = 0, for any X X(M). Thus, we have η h = 0. (3.9) 35

5 From (3.8) and (3.9), taking account of (.), we have η =( i η j )( i ξ j ) = (φ ij + φ aj h i a )(φ ij + φ b j h ib ) Notes on quasi contact metric manifolds 5 = φ ij φ ij + φ ij φ b j h ib + φ aj h i a φ ij + φ aj h i a φ b j h ib (3.10) = n + (g ib η i η b )h ib + (δ a i η a ξ i )h i a + (g ab η a η b )h i a h ib = n + h ij h ij = n + h. From (3.10), we see that η 0 everywhere on M, and also that, especially, if M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g) is a contact metric manifold, h = trh holds by virtue of Theorem.1, and hence, in this case, η = n + trh holds (see [8], (3.7)). Now, the equality (.9) is rewritten in terms of local coordinates as i φ j k + φ i a ( a φ b k )φ j b = g ij ξ k η j δ i k + η j φ i a a ξ k. From which, we have i φ j i + φ i a ( a φ b i )φ j b = η j (n + 1)η j + η j φ i a a ξ i Here, taking account of (.1), we get φ i a ( a φ b i )φ j b = φ i a a (φ b i φ j b ) φ i a φ b i a φ j b = 4nη j + η j φ i a a ξ i. (3.11) = φ i a a (ξ i η j ) + a φ j a ξ a η b a φ j b = φ i a ( a ξ i )η j + a φ j a. (3.1) Thus, from (3.11) and (3.1), we have i φ j i = nη j. (3.13) From (3.8), taking account of (3.7), we get div ξ = i ξ i = trφ tr(φh) = tr(φh) = tr(hφ) = tr(φh) = div ξ, and hence From (3.1), taking account of (.11) and (.1), we get ξ k k h j i = 1 ξk ( ( k φ j a ) a ξ i φ j a k a ξ i + ( k φ i a ) j η a + φ a i k j ξ a ) div ξ(= i ξ i ) = 0. (3.14) = 1 ξk φ j a a k ξ i 1 ξk φ j a R kab i ξ b + 1 ξk φ a i j k ξ a (3.15) + 1 ξk φ a i R kjb a ξ b = 1 φ j a ( a ξ k ) k ξ i 1 φ a i ( j ξ k ) k ξ a 1 ξk φ j a R kab i ξ b + 1 ξk φ a i R kjb a ξ b. 353

6 6 Y.D. Chai, J.H. Kim, J.H. Park, K. Sekigawa, W.M. Shin Here, taking account of (3.7) and (3.8), we get 1 φ j a ( a ξ k ) k ξ i = 1 φ j a (φ a k + φ b k h a b )(φ k i + φ c i h k c ) Similarly, we get = 1 φ j a ( δ a i + ξη a φ a k h c i φ k c h a i φ b k h a b h c i φ k c ) (3.16) = 1 φ j i + 1 φ a i h c a h j c. 1 φ a i ( j ξ k ) k ξ a = 1 φ j i 1 φ a i h c a h j c. (3.17) Thus, from (3.5), (3.15) and (3.17), we have ξ k k h j i = 1 ξk φ j a R kab i ξ b + 1 ξk φ a i R kjb a ξ b. (3.18) (3.18) is rewritten in index-free form as follows: ( ξ h)x = 1 R(ξ, φx)ξ + 1 φr(ξ, X)ξ. (3.18 ) On one hand, taking account of (.11), (.1), (3.7) and (3.8), we get and hence R(ξ, X)ξ = ξ ( X ξ) X ( ξ ξ) [ξ,x] ξ = ξ (φx + φhx) [ξ,x] ξ = ξ (φx + φhx) + (φ[ξ, X] + φh[ξ, X]) = φ ξ X φ( ξ h)x φh ξ X + φ ξ X φ X ξ + φh( ξ X X ξ) = φ( ξ h)x + φ(φx + φhx) + φh(φx + φhx) = φ( ξ h)x X + η(x)ξ + φ(φh)x + φ(hφ)x + φhφhx = φ( ξ h)x X + η(x)ξ + h X, ( ξ h)x η(( ξ h)x)ξ φx + φh X = φr(ξ, X)ξ. (3.19) Here, from (.1) and (3.9), we get η i (ξ k k h j i ) = ξ k η i ( k h j i ) = ξ k ( k η i )h j i = 0. (3.0) Thus, from (3.19) and (3.0), we have ( ξ h)x = φx h φx φr(x, ξ)ξ, (3.1) for any X X(M). Thus, from (3.18) and (3.1), we have also φx h φx φr(x, ξ)ξ = 1 R(ξ, φx)ξ + 1 φr(ξ, X)ξ, (3.) 354

7 Notes on quasi contact metric manifolds 7 for any X X(M). From (3.1), taking account of (3.7), we have also φ X φ h X φ R(X, ξ)ξ = 1 φr(ξ, φx)ξ+ 1 φ R(ξ, X)ξ, and hence X+η(X)ξ+h X+R(X, ξ)ξ η(r(x, ξ)ξ)ξ = 1 φr(ξ, φx)ξ 1 R(ξ, X)ξ + 1 η(r(ξ, X)ξ)ξ, we get X + η(x)ξ + h X + R(X, ξ)ξ = 1 φr(ξ, φx)ξ 1 R(ξ, X)ξ, (3.3) for any X X(M). Here, (3.3) is rewritten in terms of local coordinates as (3.3) δ j i + η j ξ i + h a i h j a + R jab i ξ a ξ b = 1 φ b i R ack b φ j c ξ a ξ k 1 R ajb i ξ a ξ b, and hence n + trh + ρ ab ξ a ξ b = 1 ρ akξ a ξ k + 1 ρ abξ a ξ b = 0, namely ρ(ξ, ξ) = n trh. (3.4) Remark 3.1 From (3.18 ), we have the following equality: g(( ξ h)x, Y ) g(( ξ h)y, X) = 1 R(ξ, φx, ξ, Y ) 1 g(r(ξ, X)ξ, φy ) for any X X(M). (3.5) is rewritten in terms of local coordinates as: From (3.5), we have further + 1 R(ξ, φy, ξ, X) + 1 g(r(ξ, Y )ξ, φx) = 0, (3.5) ξ k ( k (h ij h ji )) = 0. (3.5 ) ξ H = 0, (3.6) where H is the skew-symmetric part of H, where H(X, Y ) = g(hx, Y ) for any X X(M). (3.6) is trivial in the case where M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g) is a contact metric manifold. 4 Curvature identities and results In this section, we shall establish several curvature identities on a quasi contact metric manifold based on [4] the formulas obtained and also the ones in the previous sections of the present paper and further provide several results concerning the question introduced in 1. Let M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g) be a (n+1)-dimensional quasi contact metric manifold and M = (M R, J, ḡ) be the corresponding quasi Kähler cone endowed with the quasi Kähler structure ( J, ḡ) defined by (1.4). First, we recall the following curvature identity on a quasi Kähler manifold M = (M, J, ḡ) (see []): R λµνκ + J λ J β µ J γ ν J κ Rβγ J λ J β µ Rβνκ J γ ν J κ Rλµγ + J λ J γ ν Rµγκ + J β µ J κ Rλβν (4.1) + J λ J κ Rµν + J β µ J γ ν Rλβγκ = ḡ κ ( λ J µ ) J ν ḡ ν ( µ J λ ) J κ, 355

8 8 Y.D. Chai, J.H. Kim, J.H. Park, K. Sekigawa, W.M. Shin where we suppose that the Latin indices 1 λ, µ, ν,, β, γ, n + = and a, b, c, i, j, k, l, run over the range 1,,, n+1. Setting λ = i, µ = j, ν = k, κ = l in (4.1), and taking account of the formulas (see [8], (.6)), we have R ijkl +φ i a φ j b φ k c φ l d R abcd +φ i a φ k c R ajcl +φ j b φ l d R ibkd φ i a φ j b R abkl φ k c φ l d R ijcd + φ i a φ l d R ajkd + φ j b φ k c R ibcl + 4φ il φ jk 4φ jl φ ik 4g il g jk + 4g jl g ik + 4g il η j η k + 4g jk η i η l 4g jl η i η k 4g ik η j η l = ( i φ j a ) a φ kl + ( j φ i a ) a φ kl η k ( i φ jl j φ il ) + η l ( i φ jk j φ ik ) η j i φ kl + η i j φ kl. (4.) Similarly, setting λ =, µ = j, ν = k, κ = l in (4.1), we have ξ a φ j b φ k c φ l d R abcd + ξ a φ k c R ajcl ξ a φ j b R abkl + ξ a φ l d R ajkd = ( j ξ a ) a φ kl +η k l η j η l j η k +φ j a a φ kl +4η k φ jl 4η l φ jk. (4.3) Furthermore, setting λ = i, µ =, ν = k, κ = in (4.1), we have φ i a ξ b φ k c ξ d R abcd + ξ b ξ d R ibkd + 4g ik 4η i η k = φ ak i ξ a + φ i a a η k + ( i ξ a ) a η k. (4.4) Transvecting (4.) with g il and taking account of (3.11), we have ρ jk +(g ad ξ a ξ d )φ j b φ k c R abcd +φ la φ k c R ajcl +φ j b φ id R ibkd φ la φ j b R abkl φ k c φ id R ijcd +(g ad ξ a ξ d )R ajkd +ρ bc φ j b φ k c 8(n 1)(g jk η j η k ) (4.5) = ( i φ j a ) a φ ki + ( j φ i a ) a φ k i η k i φ j i ξ i j φ ik η j i φ k i + η i j φ k i. Here, taking account of (3.8), we get ξ i j φ ik + η i j φ k i = ξ i j φ ki + η i j φ k i = 4η i j φ k i = 4( j η i )φ k i = 4( j ξ i )φ ki = 4φ ki (φ j i + φ a i h j a ) = 4g kj 4η k η j + 4(g ka η k η a )h j a. (4.6) Thus, taking account of (3.13), the right-hand side of (4.5) reduces to ( i φ a j ) a φ ki + ( j φ a i ) a φ i k + 4(n 1)η j η k + 4g jk + 4h jk. (4.7) We have also (g ad ξ a ξ d )φ b j φ c k R abcd = ρ bc φ b j φ c k φ b j φ c k R abcd ξ a ξ d, φ la φ k c R ajcl = 1 φla φ k c (R jalc R jlac ) = 1 φla φ k c R jcal = 1 φ k c R jca l φ l a = ρ jk, (4.8) φ j b φ id R ibkd = 1 φ j b φ id (R bidk R bdik ) = 1 φ j b φ id R bkid 356

Thus, from (4.5) (4.8), taking account of (.4), we have ρ jk φ b j φ c k R abcd ξ a ξ d ξ a ξ d R ajkd + ρ bc φ b j φ c k ρ jk ρ kj 8(n 1)(g jk η j η k ) = ( i φ a j ) a φ ki (4.9) + ( j φ a i ) a φ i k + 8nη j η k + 4(g jk η j η k ) + 4h jk. Thus, transvecting (4.9) with g jk, we have τ ρ ab ξ a ξ b + τ ρ bc ξ b ξ c τ τ 16n(n 1) = ( i φ j a ) a φ i j + ( j φ i a ) a φ ji + 8n + 8n, (4.10) and hence, from (4.10) taking account of (3.4), we have 4(τ τ ) 8n + 4trh 16n = ( i φ jk j φ ik ) k φ ij. (4.11) Here, we assume especially that M is a contact metric manifold. Then, dφ = 0 holds, where Φ(X, Y ) = g(x, φy ). Then, in this case, the right hand side of (4.11) reduces to ( i φ ja j φ ia ) a φ ij = ( i φ ja + j φ ai ) a φ ij = ( a φ ij ) a φ ij = φ. Thus, (4.11) reduces to τ τ + 4n trh = 1 ( φ 4n). (4.11 ) This is nothing but the Olszak result [6]. Therefore, we see that (4.11) is a generalization of the Olszak formula. Theorem 4.1 Let M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g) be a (n + 1)-dimensional quasi contact metric manifold with dφ = 0. Then, we have the equality (4.11). Further, the equality τ τ + 4n trh = 0 holds if and only if M is Sasakian. Proof. From direct calculation, we have 0 q( i φ jk g ij η k + η j g ik )( i φ jk g ij ξ k + ξ j g ik ) = φ (g ij i φ jk )ξ k + (g ik i φ jk )ξ j (g ij i φ jk )η k + (n + 1) (g ij ξ j g ik η k ) + (g ik i φ jk )η j (g ij ξ k η j g ik ) + (n + 1) (4.1) = φ + ( i φ k i )ξ k + ( i φ j i )ξ j + ( i φ k i )ξ k + ( k φ j k )ξ j + 4n + = φ + 4( n) + 4n = φ 4n. 357

10 10 Y.D. Chai, J.H. Kim, J.H. Park, K. Sekigawa, W.M. Shin Thus, from (4.11 ) and (4.1), taking account of the result (see [1], Theorem 6.3), we have immediately the required conclusion. Let M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g) be a (n+1)-dimensional quasi contact metric manifold. Then, from (3.10), it follows immediately that the characteristic vector field ξ is never parallel. We here assume that the characteristic vector field ξ of M is a Killing vector field. Then we have i η j + j η i = 0. (4.13) From (4.13), we have easily Thus, transvecting (4.14) with ξ j, we have i i η j + ρ j k η k = 0. (4.14) η + ρ jk ξ i ξ k = 0. (4.15) Thus, from (4.15), taking account of (3.10) and (3.4), we have Thus, we have the following. h + trh = 0. (4.16) Theorem 4. Let M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g) be a (n + 1)-dimensional quasi contact metric manifold with the Killing characteristic vector field ξ. Then, the tensor field h is skewsymmetric. Proof. We set h + = 1 (h + t h), h = 1 (h t h), (4.17) where t h is the transpose of h with respect to the metric g. Then, from (4.17), we immediately get h = h + + h, t h + = h +, t h = h (4.18) Further, we get h = tr(h( t h)) = tr(( t h)h), tr(h + h ) = tr(h h + ) = 0. (4.19) Thus, from (4.17), (4.18) and (4.19), we get and h = tr(h( t h)) = tr((h + + h )(h + h )) = tr(h + ) tr(h ), (4.0) tr(h ) = trh + + trh. (4.1) Thus, from (4.16), taking account of (4.0) and (4.1), we have trh + = 0, (4.) and hence h + = 0 since h + is symmetric with respect to the metric g and therefore, h is skew-symmetric. This complete the proof of Theorem

11 Notes on quasi contact metric manifolds 11 Now it is well-known that a contact metric manifold M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g) is Sasakian if and only if R(X, Y )ξ = η(y )X η(x)y, (4.3) holds for any X, Y X(M) (see [1], Proposition 7.6). We have the following which is a generalization of the fact. Theorem 4.3 A quasi contact metric manifold M = (M, φ, ξ, η, g) is Sasakian if and only if the equality (4.3) holds for any X, Y X(M). Proof. The equality (4.3) is rewritten in terms of local coordinates R ijl k ξ l = η j δ i k η i δ j k. (4.3 ) Transvecting (4.) with ξ l and taking account of (4.3 ), we have η i g jk η j g ik = i φ jk j φ ik + η i g kj η j g ki + η i h jk η j h ik, and hence i φ jk j φ ik + η i h jk η j h ik = 0. (4.4) Thus, transvecting (4.4) with ξ k and taking account of (.), (3.8) and (3.9), we have Here, taking account of (3.8) and (3.9), we get ξ k i φ jk ξ k j φ ik = 0. (4.5) ξ k i φ jk = φ jk i ξ k = φ jk (φ i k + φ a k h i a ) = g ji η j η i + (g ja η j η a )h i a = g ji η j η i + h ij. (4.6) Thus, from (4.5) and (4.6), we have finally g ji η j η i + h ij (g ij η i η j ) h ji = 0, and hence h ij h ji = 0. (4.7) Thus, it follows that M is a contact metric manifold by virtue of Theorem 4.1, and therefore, M is Sasakian.
