Some Characterizations of Semi-Invariant Submanifolds of Golden Riemannian Manifolds

: In this paper, we study some characterizations for any submanifold of a golden Riemannian manifold to be semi-invariant in terms of canonical structures on the submanifold, induced by the golden structure of the ambient manifold. Besides, we determine forms of the distributions involved in the characterizations of a semi-invariant submanifold on both its tangent and normal bundles.


Introduction
The notion of a CR submanifold in Kaehlerian manifolds has been first defined by A. Bejancu [1] as a generalization of both complex and totally real submanifolds. Later, this notion has been considered in Riemannian manifolds endowed with almost contact structures. In this sense, the concept of a semi-invariant submanifold in almost contact metric manifolds has been introduced by A. Bejancu and N. Papaghuic [2] as analogous to that of the CR submanifold, in fact, semi-invariant submanifolds in Riemannian manifolds correspond to CR submanifolds in complex manifolds. Since then, it has become a popular topic in differential geometry. This notion has been extended to other ambient manifolds. Therefore, semi-invariant submanifolds in different kind of ambient manifolds have been defined and studied by many geometers, such as Kenmotsu manifolds [3], locally Riemannian product manifolds [4], Sasakian space forms [5], cosymplectic manifolds [6,7], almost contact manifolds [8,9], nearly Sasakian manifolds [10], Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifolds [11], nearly trans-Sasakian manifolds [12], Lorentzian Sasakian manifolds [13].
A research regarding the differential geometry of golden structures on manifolds has been initiated by M. C. Crâşmȃreanu and C. E. Hreţcanu in [? ]. In [15? ,16], the concepts of a golden Riemannian structure and a golden Riemannian manifold have been introduced, in additon, some properties of golden Riemannian manifolds have been analyzed. After that, various type of submanifolds of golden Riemannian manifolds have been investigated such as, invariant submanifolds, anti-invariant submanifolds, slant submanifolds, semi-slant submanifolds, hemi-slant submanifolds in [15][16][17][18][19]. In [20], the notion of a semi-invariant submanifold in golden Riemannian manifolds has been defined by F. E. Erdogan and C. Yıldırım, then the authors have made an examination of the distributions involved in its definiton.
The main aim of this paper is to investigate some characterizations for any submanifold of a golden Riemannian manifold to be semi-invariant on both its tangent and normal bundles by using canonical structures on the submanifold, induced by the golden structure of the ambient manifold. Moreover, we find forms of the distributions specifying the characterizations of a semi-invariant submanifold on both its tangent and normal bundles. The paper has three sections and is organized as follows: Section 2 includes some basic facts on golden Riemannian manifolds and their submanifolds. Section 3 is concerned with an investigation of characterizations of any semi-invariant submanifold in a golden Riemannian manifold. We obtain some results on its canonical structures induced by the golden structure of the ambient manifold. We find three necessary and sufficient conditions for any submanifold of a golden Riemannian manifold to be semi-invariant. Also, we get equivalent expressions for each of the associated distributions on its tangent and normal bundles. Finally, an example is presented.

Preliminaries
In this section, we briefly review some general properties concerning golden Riemannian manifolds and their submanifolds.
A non-trivial C ∞ -tensor field Φ of type (1, 1) on a C ∞ -differantiable real manifold M is called a golden structure if it satisfies the equation where I is the identity operator on the Lie algebra Γ TM of differentiable vector fields on M [15? ,16]. In fact, the golden structure is a special case of the polynomial structure. The polynomial structure f of degree n is a non-zero C ∞ -tensor field of type (1, 1) on a C ∞ -differantiable manifold M verifying the algebraic equation Q (x) = x n + a n x n−1 + · · · + a 2 x + a 1 I = 0, where f n−1 (p) , f n−2 (p) , . . . , f (p) , I are linearly independent for every point p ∈ M. Also, the monic polynomial Q (x) is named the structure polynomial [21]. That is, the golden structure Φ is a polynomial structure of degree 2 with the structure polynomial Q (x) = x 2 − x − 1. If M, g is a Riemannian manifold endowed with a golden structure Φ such that g and Φ satisfying the relation for any vector fields X, Y ∈ Γ TM , then g, Φ is named a golden Riemannian structure and M, g, Φ is called a golden Riemannian manifold [15? ,16]. Let M be any isometrically immersed submanifold of a golden Riemannian manifold M, g, Φ and we denote by the same symbol g the Riemannian metric induced on M. We define four operators T, N, t and n as follows: and for any vector fields X ∈ Γ (TM) and U ∈ Γ TM ⊥ , where ΦX , ΦU ∈ Γ (TM) and ΦX ⊥ , ΦU ⊥ ∈ Γ TM ⊥ . Then for any vector field X tangent to M, the vector field ΦX is given by Similarly, for any vector field U normal to M, we have Also, it is obvious that the operators T : Γ (TM) → Γ (TM) and n : Γ TM ⊥ → Γ TM ⊥ are an endomorphism, and the operators N : Γ (TM) → Γ TM ⊥ and t : Γ TM ⊥ → Γ (TM) are a bundle-valued 1-form. In addition, the operators T and n are g-symmetric. That is, and for any vector fields X, Y ∈ Γ (TM) and U, V ∈ Γ TM ⊥ [17]. Taking account of the definition of the golden structure in (1), we obtain from (8) and (9) that the following relations: and

Characterizations of Semi-Invariant Submanifolds
The purpose of this section is to give some characterizations of any semi-invariant submanifold of a golden Riemannian manifold and its associated distributions.
At first, we recall that the concept of a semi-invariant submanifold in golden Riemannian manifolds. Any isometrically immersed submanifold M of a golden Riemannian manifold M, g, Φ is called a semi-invariant submanifold if there exist two orthogonal complementary distributions D and D ⊥ on M satisfying the following conditions: for each point p ∈ M, where D and D ⊥ are said to be Φ-invariant distribution and Φ-anti-invariant distribution, respectively [20]. Proposition 1. Let M be any semi-invariant submanifold of a golden Riemannian manifold M, g, Φ . Then we have the following expressions: and Proof. Since the distribution D ⊥ is Φ-anti-invariant, we have Φ D ⊥ ⊆ TM ⊥ , which proves (16). The proof of (17) is obvious from (8) and (16). As the distribution D is Φ-invariant, it follows from (8) that (18) holds. By means of (8) and (10), we obtain for any vector fields X ∈ Γ (D) and Y ∈ Γ D ⊥ . Hence, (20) implies that TD is perpendicular to D ⊥ . At the same time, because of the fact that TD ⊆ TM, we get Let X be in Γ (D). Taking into account (18) in (9), we derive from (12) that Thus, we infer from (21) and (22) that (19) is correct. Consequently, the proof has been shown.
Theorem 1. Let M be any submanifold of a golden Riemannian manifold M, g, Φ . Then a necessary and sufficient condition for the submanifold M to be a semi-invariant is that Proof. We assume that M is a semi-invariant submanifold of the golden Riemannian manifold M, g, Φ . Then the tangent bundle TM has the decomposition We denote by r and s the projection operators of the tangent bundle TM onto the distributions D and D ⊥ , respectively. In this case, we have r + s = I, r 2 = r, s 2 = s and rs = sr = 0.
Hence, for every vector field X ∈ Γ (TM), there exists the decomposition From (24), ΦX can be written in the form for any vector field X ∈ Γ (TM). Then in view of (8), we get for any vector field X ∈ Γ (TM). On the other hand, we infer from (16) and (18) that Thus, comparing the tangential and normal parts of both sides of (25), we obtain T = Tr and N = Ns.
Hence, we deduce from (13) and (18) that Conversely, let us suppose that M is any submanifold of the golden Riemannian manifold M, g, Φ and NT = 0. Applying the endomorphism T from the right hand side to (12), we get We define two operators as follows: Then the operators r and s verify that r + s = I, r 2 = r, s 2 = s and rs = sr = 0.
That is, r and s are orthogonal complementary projection operators. Hence, there are two orthogonal complementary distributions D and D ⊥ corresponding to the projection operators r and s, respectively. Taking into account the assumption that NT = 0, we derive from (27) and Proof. Let X be in Γ (ker N). Then it results from (12) that Conversely, if X belongs to Γ ker T 2 − T − I , then we get from (12) that On the other hand, using (3) and (8), we find Hence, by means of (32) and (33), we obtain NX = 0, from which Therefore, it follows from (31) and (34) that Besides, (12) states that ker T 2 − T − I = ker (tN) .
Consequently, it is seen immediately from (35) and (36) that (29) is true. Let X ∈ Γ (ker T). Then it is trivial that ker T ⊆ ker T 2 − T .
Conversely, if X pertains to Γ ker T 2 − T , then we have Also, (12) shows that tNX = X.
Hence, using (3), (8), (9), (10), (38) and (39), we can easily find Then in view of (23), which is a necessary and sufficient condition for the submanifold M to be semi-invariant, we obtain Thus, by means of (37) and (41), we get On the other hand, it is obvious from (12) that ker T = ker (tN − I) .
As a consequence of (42) and (43), we have (30). Therefore, the proof has been completed.
Proof. The proof is a direct consequence of Proposition 1 and Proposition 2.
Let M be any semi-invariant submanifold of a golden Riemannian manifold M, g, Φ . We put If we denote by D the orthogonal complementary subbundle of D ⊥ in TM ⊥ , then we have On the other hand, we consider a tensor field Ψ of type (1, 1) on the golden Riemannian manifold M, g, Φ defined by the rule In this case, Ψ is a golden structure [? ]. Besides, the Riemannian metric g is Ψ-compatible, that is, g and Ψ verifying the relation g ΨX, Y = g X, ΨY for any vector fields X, Y ∈ Γ TM .

Proposition 4.
Let M be any semi-invariant submanifold of a golden Riemannian manifold M, g, Φ . Then we have the following expressions: Proof. Let U be in Γ (D). Then we infer from (8) and (48) that for any vector field X ∈ Γ (TM). Taking into account (17) and (18), it seems from (49) that Now, we assume that V ∈ Γ D ⊥ . Then from (17), there exists a vector field Y ∈ Γ D ⊥ such that V = ΦY. Thus, we have Using (48) and (51), we find It follows from (50) and (52) that D is a Ψ-invariant distribution. That is, we obtain (a). We recall that D ⊥ = ΦD ⊥ ⊆ TM ⊥ . If U ∈ Γ D ⊥ , then there is a vector field Z in Γ D ⊥ such that U = ΦZ. Thus, we conclude which shows that D ⊥ is a Ψ-anti-invariant distribution. In other words, we get (b).

Proposition 5.
Let M be any semi-invariant submanifold of a golden Riemannian manifold M, g, Φ . Then we have the following relations: and Proof. Since the distribution D is Ψ-invariant, we have ΨD ⊆ TM ⊥ , which implies from (9) that (53) holds. Taking account of that D ⊥ is Ψ-anti-invariant distribution, we obtain from (9) and (48) that for any vector fields U ∈ Γ (D) and V ∈ Γ D ⊥ , which states nD ⊥ D ⊥ .
Also, by reason of the fact that nD ⊆ TM ⊥ , it seems that On the other hand, by means of (15), we derive from (53) and (59) that Hence, we get from (59) and (60) that Similarly, it can be shown that Additionally, as the distribution D is Ψ-invariant, we have As a consequence of (61), (62) and (63), it is obvious that (54) is correct. Using again the distribution D ⊥ is Ψ-anti-invariant, we conclude from (9) that (55) is true. Applying (55) in (9), we find By virtue of (46) and (47), (56) follows from (64). Therefore, the proof has been shown.
Any semi-invariant submanifold of a golden Riemannian manifold is also characterized by the decomposition of its normal bundle. Thus, we have the following theorem: Conversely, we assume that the normal bundle admits T p M ⊥ = D p ⊕D ⊥ p for each point p ∈ M such that D p is the maximal anti-invariant subspace of T p M ⊥ and D ⊥ p is its orthogonal complement in T p M ⊥ , that is, D and D ⊥ are Ψ-invariant and Ψ-anti-invariant distributions, respectively. We set D ⊥ = ΨD ⊥ and denote by D its orthogonal complementary subbundle in TM. Let be X in Γ D ⊥ . Then there exists a vector field U ∈ Γ D ⊥ such that X = ΨU. Thus, we obtain which shows that D ⊥ is Φ-anti-invariant distribution. Now, we suppose that X belongs to Γ (D). Then we get from (3) and (9) that g ΦX, V = g X, ΦV = g (X, trV) + g (X, tsV) for any vector field V in TM ⊥ , where r and s are the projection operators of the normal bundle TM ⊥ onto the distributions D and D ⊥ , respectively. Using (53) and (56) in (65), we obtain g ΦX, V = 0, from which it means that ΦX ∈ Γ (TM) .
Hence, in view of (3), it is easily seen that g ΦX, Y = g X, ΦY = 0 for any vector field Y ∈ Γ D ⊥ . That is, we have Thus, (66) and (67) mean that D is a Φ-invariant distribution. As a result, the distributions D and D ⊥ imply that M is a semi-invariant submanifold. Proof. We suppose that M is a semi-invariant submanifold of the golden Riemannian manifold M, g, Φ . Then its normal bundle has the decomposition TM ⊥ = D ⊕ D ⊥ , where D is Ψ-invariant distribution and D ⊥ is Ψ-anti-invariant distribution. We denote by r and s the projection operators of the normal bundle TM ⊥ onto the distributions D and D ⊥ , respectively. Then we have r + s = I, r 2 = r, s 2 = s and rs = sr = 0.
Thus, any vector field U ∈ Γ TM ⊥ is given by the decomposition From (69), ΨU can be expressed in the form ΨU = ΨrU + ΨsU for any vector field U ∈ Γ TM ⊥ . Then we get from (9), (53) and (55) that for any vector field U ∈ Γ TM ⊥ . Hence, identifying the tangential and normal parts in (70), respectively, it is shown that t = tsU and (I − n) = (I − n) r.
Thus, we obtain from (14) and (53) that Conversely, we assume that M is a submanifold of the golden Riemannian manifold M, g, Φ and t (I − n) = 0. Applying the endomorphism (I − n) from the right hand side to (15), we get Let us consider two operators r and s defined by and respectively. Then the operators r and s verify that r + s = I, r 2 = r, s 2 = s and rs = sr = 0, and ker (I − n) = ker n − n 2 = ker (Nt − I) .
Proof. The proof can be shown in a manner similar to that of Proposition 2.

Proposition 7.
Let M be any semi-invariant submanifold of a golden Riemannian manifold M, g, Φ . Then the following relations are satisfied: and D ⊥ = ker (I − n) = ker n − n 2 = ker (Nt − I) .
Proof. Taking account of Propositions 5 and 6, the proof is easily obtained. Now, we give an example to illustrate our results.

Example 1.
We consider a tensor field Φ of type (1, 1) on 4-dimensional Euclidean space R 4 , , with local coordinates (x 1 , where φ and 1 − φ are the roots of the algebraic equation x 2 = x + 1. Then it is obvious that R 4 , , , Φ is a golden Riemannian manifold. Let M be a submanifold in the ambient manifold R 4 , , , Φ given by By a direct calculation, it can be obtained that If we choose the distributions D and D ⊥ such that D = Span {E 1 } and D ⊥ = Span {E 2 }, then the tangent bundle TM has the decomposition TM = D ⊕ D ⊥ . On the other hand, it seems that from which D and D ⊥ are Φ-invariant and Φ-anti-invariant distributions, respectively. Hence, M is a semi-invariant submanifold. It can be also shown that D =Span {N 2 } and D ⊥ = Span {N 1 } such that TM ⊥ = D ⊕ D ⊥ . Furthermore, for any vector fields X ∈ Γ (TM) and U ∈ Γ TM ⊥ , we get ΦX = αφE 1 + βN 1 , α, β ∈ R and ΦU = λ (E 2 + N 1 ) + µ (1 − φ) N 2 , λ, µ ∈ R.
