1. INTRODUCTION

Let (M .g ) be a n -dimensionl n  3 , differentiable manifolds of class C  we denoted by 

its Levi-Civita Connection. We define endomorphism R( X , Y )Z and X  Y by
R( X , Y )Z  [ X , Y ]Z  [ X ,Y ] Z and X  Y  g (Y , Z ) X  g ( X , Z )Y (1.1)
Respectively, where X , Y , Z   (M ),  (M ) being the Lie -algebra of the vector fields on (M , g ) .The
Riemannian Christoffel curvature tensor R is defend as.
R( X , Y )Z  g ( R( X , Y )Z ,W ) ,W   (M )
Let S and r are denote the Ricci tensor and the scalar curvature of (M , g ) respectively then
Weyl Conformal Curvature tensor C is defined as
1
C ( X , Y ) Z  R( X , Y )Z  [S (Y , Z ) X  S ( X , Z )Y  g (Y , Z )QX  g ( X , Z )QY ]
(n  1)
(1.2)
r
 [ g (Y , Z ) X  g ( X , Z )Y ]
(n  1)(n  2)
Where Q is the Ricci Operator defined by g (QX , Y )  S ( X , Y ) [5].

Key words: Kenmostu manifold, Weakly Ricci symmetric manifold, Generalized Ricci recurrent Kenmostu manifold, -
Einstein manifold
L. Mamassy and T.Q. Binh [7] [8], Introduced the notion of Weakly Symmetric and Weakly
Ricci Symmetric Sasakian manifolds and M. Kon [3] introduced the notion of Ricci
 -Parallelity for Sasakian manifolds. A Riemannian manifolds is called Weakly Ricci Symmetric
manifold if there exist 1-form  ,  and  such that the relation.
( X S )(Y , Z )   ( X )S (Y , Z )   (Y )S ( X , Z )  (Z )S ( X , Y ) (1.3)
holds for any vector
fields X , Y and Z , where S is the Ricci tensor of type (0, 2) of the
manifold. A Weakly Ricci- symmetric manifold is said to be proper if        is not the case.

In the present paper we study Kenmostu manifolds with certain conditions. This paper is organized
as follows Section -2, Contain the necessary details about the Kenmostu manifolds and basic results
In Section -3 we study 3-dimensianl Kenmostu manifolds and proved that manifolds is  -Eistein
manifolds and also find the square length of Ricci tensor. Further we shall prove that in
r
3-dimensional Kenmostu manifolds the relation Q  (1  ) always holds
2
In Section -4, 5 We study Weakly Ricci Symmetric, 3-dimensional generalized recurrent
Kenmostu Manifolds and obtained several result.

2. KENMOSTU MANIFOLD

Let (M , g ) be a almost contact manifolds [9] with a almost contact structure ( ,  ,, g ) consisting
a (1,1) –tensor fields  , a vector fields  , a 1-form  and a compatible Riemannian metric
g satisfying.
 2  I    ,  ( )  1,   0,   0 (2.1)
g ( X , Y )  g ( X , Y ) ( X )(Y ), g ( X ,  )  ( X ) (2.2)
g ( X , Y )   g ( X , Y ) (2.3)
for all vector fields X , Y   (M )
An almost contact metric manifolds is called Kenmotsu manifolds if it satisfies [1]
( X  )(Y )  g ( X , Y ) (Y )  X , for all X , Y   (M ) (2.4)
Where  is Live –Civita Connection of Riemannian metric g. of type (0, 2) .From the above
equation follows that.
 X   X   ( X ) (2.5)
( X )(Y )  g ( X , Y ) ( X )(Y ) (2.6)
Moreover the Curvature R , the Ricci tensor S and the Ricci Operator Q satisfy [1]
S ( X ,  )  (1  n)( X ) , S ( X , Y )  S ( X , Y )  (1  n)( X )(Y ) (2.7)
Q   (1  n) and rank ( )  2m (2.8)
R( , X )Y  (Y ) X  g ( X , Y ) (2.9)
Where n  2m 1, Kenmostu manifolds have been studies various authors [11],[10] and [6].
A Kenmostu manifold is normal (that is Nijenhuis tensor of  equals 2d  ) but not Sasakian
manifolds. Moreover it is also not compact, form (2.5) we get div  n 1 .
A Kenmostu manifold is said to be  -Einstein manifolds if its Ricci tensor S is of the form
S ( X , Y )   g ( X , Y )   ( X )(Y ) (2.10)
for any X , Y   (M ) and  ,  are function on (M , g ) [1][5].

3. THREE-DIMENSIONAL KENMOSTU MANIFOLD

A Kenmostu manifolds (M , g ) is called conform ally flat if it is conform ally equivalent to Euclidean
Space. Let (M , g ) be a 3-dimensional manifolds it is well-known [2] the Conformal curvature of
Weyl vanishes identically that for 3-dimensional manifolds (M , g ) curvature tensor R is satisfies.
R( X , Y ) Z  g (Y , Z )QX  g ( X , Z )QY  S (Y , Z ) X  S ( X , Z )Y
r (3.1)
 [ g ( X , Z )Y  g (Y , Z ) X ]

Where Q is the Ricci Operator ,that is g (QX , Y )  S ( X , Y ) and r is the scalar curvature of (M , g ) ,
Putting Z   in (3.1) and using (2.7) and (2.8) we have.
r
 (Y )QX  [{  n}( (Y ) X   ( X )Y ]   ( X )QY (3.2)
2
Putting Y   in (3.2) and using (2.1) , (2.8) we have

Which is  -Einstein manifolds with   [  n] ,   [1   2n]

We state the result.
Theorem (3.1) A Conform ally flat 3-dimensional Kenmostu manifolds is an  - Einstein
manifolds.

For Conform ally flat Kenmostu manifolds, we have
  r r r r
r  [  n]n  [1  2n  ] and S ( ,  )  [  n]  [1   2n] (3.4)


Where r is the scalar curvature of Conform ally flat Kenmostu manifolds

Let L be the Symmetric endomorphism of the tangent space at a point corresponding to the Ricci
tensor S , then
g ( LX , Y )  S ( X , Y ) for all X , Y (3.5)
Let l 2 be the square length of the Ricci tensor which is defined as
l  S ( Lei , ei )

(3.6)
Where {ei }, i  1 2 3.....n is an orthogonal basis of the tangent space at a point of the manifold..
From (3.3) we have.

Using (3.4), (3.5) and (3.6) in (3.7) we have
r r r
l 2  [  n]2 n  [1  2n  ][1  ] (3.8)

We state the results.

4. WEAKLY RICCI SYMMETRIC KENMOSTU MANIFOLD WITH  -PARALLEL

RITENSOR
Definition:- The Ricci tensor S of a Weakly Ricci Symmetric 3-dimensional Kenmostu manifolds is
said to  -Parallel if it satisfies the condition.
( X S )(Y ,  Z )  0
for all X , Y and Z (4.1)
Let (M , g ) be a Weakly Ricci Symmetric Kenmostu manifolds then from (1.3) we have
( X S )(Y ,  Z )   ( X )S (Y ,  Z )   (Y )S ( X ,  Z )  ( Z )S ( X , Y ) (4.2)
Using (2.7) (4.1) in (4.2 ) we have
 ( X )[S (Y , Z )  (1  n)(Y )(Z )]   (Y )[(1  n) g ( X ,  Z )]  ( Z )[(1  n) g ( X , Y )]  0
Putting X   in above and using (2.1) we have.
 ( )[S (Y , Z )  (1  n)(Y )(Z )]  0 (4.3)
This implies that  ( )  0 and S (Y , Z )  (1  n)(Y )(Z )
Which is Einstein manifolds, we state the results.
Theorem (4.3) If Weakly Ricci Symmetric 3-dimensional Kenmostu manifolds satisfies
 -parallel Ricci tensor then the manifolds is an Einstein manifolds with scalar curvature   (n  1) .
Definition. A Kenmostu manifolds is a said to be Ricci Symmetric if its Ricci tensor S satisfies
the condition.
( X S )(Y , Z )  0 for all. X , Y and Z (4.5)
from equation (3.3) we have
r
( X S )(Y , Z )  {1  2n  }[( X  )(Y ) ( Z )  ( X  )( Z ) (Y )] (4.6)
2
Using (2.6) and (4.5) in (4.6) we have
r
{1  2n  }[ g ( X , Y ) ( Z )  g ( X , Z ) (Y )  2 ( X ) (Y ) ( Z )]  0 (4.7)
2
This implies that
r  2(1  2n) and g ( X ,Y )  ( X)(Y ) =0 (4.8)
We state the result

Theorem (4.2) If a 3-dimensional Kenmostu manifolds satisfies the Ricci Symmetric Condition
then, the relation holds.

(a) r  2(1  2n)

(b) g ( X ,Y )  ( X)(Y ) =0

Further from (3.3) we have

r
( X S )(Y , Z )  {1  2n  }[( X  )( X ) (Y )  ( X  )(Y ) ( X )] And
2
r
(Y S )( X , Z )  {1  2n  }[(Y  )( X ) ( Z )  (Y  )( Z ) ( X )]
2
From above these two results and using the relation (4.8) we have.
( X S )(Y , Z )  (Y S )( X , Z ) (4.9)
Which is Ricci tensor of Codazzi type [4]., We state the results

Theorem (4.3) If in a 3-dimensional Kenmostu manifolds the relation (4.8) holds then the
manifolds has the Ricci tensor of Coddagi type.
5. THREE -DIMENSIONAL GENERALIZED RECURRENT KENMOSTU MANIFOLD

A Riemannian manifolds (M , g ) is called is called Generalized recurrent if it Curvature tensor R

Satisfies the condition[13].
( X R)(Y , Z )W   ( X ) R(Y , Z )W   ( X )[ g (Z ,W )Y  g (Y ,W )Z ] (5.1)
Where  ,  are two 1- form,  is non zero and the and are defined as
 ( X )  g ( X , A),  ( X )  g ( X , B) and A, B are vector fields associate with 1- form  ,  respectively.
A Riemannian manifolds (M , g ) is called is called Generalized rcurrent [13]. If its Ricci tensor S
satisfies .the condition.
( X S )(Y , Z )   ( X )S (Y , Z )  (1  n)  ( X ) g (Y , Z ) (5.2)
Where  ,  are defined as above.
Further from (3.3) we have
r
( X S )(Y , Z )  {1  2n  }[( X  )(Y ) ( Z )  ( X  )( Z ) (Y ) ] (5.3)
2
Let (M , g ) be generalized Ricci recurrent manifolds, using (5.2) in (5.3)
r
 ( X ) S (Y , Z )  (1  n)  ( X ) g (Y , Z )  {1  2n  }[ g ( X , Y )( Z )   ( X ) (Y ) ( Z )
2 (5.4)
 g ( X , Z )(Y )   ( X ) (Y ) ( Z )]
Putting Y  Z   in (5.4) and using (2.1) and (4.8) we get.
(1  n)[ ( X )   ( X )]  0 (5.5)
This implies that (1  n)  0 and  ( X )   ( X ) for any vector fields X
Theorem(5.1) If a 3-dimensional generalized Ricci recurrent Kenmostu manifolds satisfies the
relation (4.8) then    .
