$\bar{T}-$curvature and $\bar{C}-$Bochner curvature on LP-Sasakian manifolds admitting a general connection
Main Article Content
Abstract
In the present work, it is proved that LP-Sasakian manifolds which are $\bar{T}$-flat, quasi-$\bar{T}$-flat, $\xi$-$\bar{T}$-flat, $\phi$-$\bar{T}$-flat, $\bar{T}$-semi-symmetric, $\phi$-$\bar{T}$-Ricci recurrent, $\bar{C}$-Bochner flat, or satisfy $\bar{T}\cdot\bar{S}=0$, are generalized $\eta$-Einstein manifolds. The $\bar{T}$-curvature and $\bar{C}$-Bochner curvature tensors are defined with respect to a general connection $\bar{\nabla}$ which includes the quarter-symmetric metric, Schouten--van Kampen, Tanaka--Webster, and Zamkovoy connections.
