1. Introduction
A Codazzi tensor is a symmetric 2-tensor whose covariant derivative is also symmetric in differential geometry. It is a powerful tool to study geometric properties of Riemannian manifolds with harmonic Weyl tensors or harmonic curvature. A natural example of Codazzi tensor is the second fundamental form of an immersed hypersurface in a space form. There are some typical works on Codazzi tensors. For example, in [1], Andrzej and Shen studied some geometric and topological consequences of the existence of a non-trivial Codazzi tensor on a Riemannian manifold. In [2], the detailed structure of certain Riemannian manifolds admitting Codazzi tensors was described. In [3], Liu, Simon and Wang introduced the notion of -Codazzi tensors relative to an affine connection which then was used to study the topology of surfaces. In [4], the authors revealed the correspondence between Codazzi tensors that commute with its second fundamental form of a submanifold and Ribaucour transforms. In [5], Gabe constructed some examples of Codazzi tensors with two eigenvalue functions and classified this kind of Codazzi tensors on a Riemannian manifold. In [6], the authors proved structure theorem for Riemannian manifolds admitting a Codazzi tensors with exactly two distinct eigenvalues and then they classified three-dimensional gradient Ricci solitons. There are also some works on Codazzi tensors and complete Riemannian manifold, see [7,8].
In 2016, Etayo and Santamaria introduced the Yano connection on manifolds with a product structure or a complex structure based on Yano’s work on the Levi Civita connection in [9]. The Yanno connection can be used to study some new properties of manifolds and Lie groups, which make the research for Yano connection significant geometrically as well. As we known that the authors classified three-dimensional Lorentzian Lie groups in [10,11]. Inspired by the above works, Wang defined a new kind of algebraic Ricci soliton associated with canonical connections on three-dimensional Lorentzian Lie groups with a product structure and classified the new algebraic Ricci soliton in [12]. In 2021, Wu and Wang studied affine Ricci solitons associated with the Bott connection on three-dimensional Lorentzian Lie groups in [13]. In 2021, Wu and Wang studied Codazzi tensors and the quasi-statistical structure associated with canonical connections on three-dimensional Lorentzian Lie groups in [14]. There are also some works on Gauss Bonnet theorems on Lie groups, see [15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23]. However, very little is known about Codazzi tensors associated with Yano connections on Lorentzian Lie groups. This paper attempts to classify three-dimensional Lorentzian Lie groups on which Ricci tensors associated with Yano connections are Codazzi tensors.
To allow a useful study of Codazzi tensors associated with Yano connections in Lorentzian Lie groups, we derived the expressions of Yano connections in seven Lorentzian Lie groups. Then, we calculated the expressions of curvatures of the Yano connections. These expressions would be used to define the notions of Codazzi tensors associated with Yano connections. Furthermore, we derived the expressions of those Codazzi tensors in order to complete the classification of three-dimensional Lorentzian Lie groups on which Ricci tensors associated with Yano connections are Codazzi tensors. The main results of this paper are listed in Table 1 which shows the conditions that Ricci tensors associated with Yano connections is Codazzi tensors associated with Yano connections on .

The paper is organized in the following way. In Section 2, basic notions on three-dimensional Lorentzian Lie groups such as Yano connection, Riemannian curvature and Codazzi tensor are given. In Section 3, we derive the expressions of Yano connections and the associated curvatures in seven Lorentzian Lie groups and completed the classification of three-dimensional Lorentzian Lie groups on which Ricci tensors associated with Yano connections are Codazzi tensors. In Section 4, we summarize the main results and discuss further work for the future.
