Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue is a continuation of our previous Special Issue on "Differential Geometry and Its Application". Our intention is to launch a Special Edition of Axioms in which the central theme would be the generalization of Riemann spaces and their mappings.

We wish to provide an opportunity to present the latest achievements in many branches of theoretical and practical studies of mathematics, which are related to the theory of Riemann and generalized Riemann spaces and their mappings.

Among the topics that will be included in this Special Issue, we can consider the following non-exhaustive list: Riemannian Spaces and generalizations, Kenmotsu manifolds, Kaehler manifolds, manifolds with non-symmetric linear connections, cosymplectic manifolds, contact manifolds, statistical manifolds, Minkowski spaces, geodesic mappings, almost geodesic mappings, holomorphically projective mappings, warped product of manifolds, complex space forms, quaternionic space forms, golden manifolds, inequalities, invariants, immersions, etc.

In addition to the above topics, new ideas are also welcome.

In the hope that this initiative will be of interest, we encourage you to submit your current research for inclusion in the Special Issue.

Prof. Dr. Mića Stanković

In this article, we study isotropic submanifolds in locally metallic product space forms. Firstly, we establish the Chen–Ricci inequality for such submanifolds and determine the conditions under which the inequality becomes equality. Additionally, we explore the minimality of Lagrangian submanifolds in locally metallic product space forms, and we apply the result to create a classification theorem for isotropic submanifolds whose mean curvature is constant. More specifically, we have demonstrated that the submanifolds are either a product of two Einstein manifolds with Einstein constants, or they are isometric to a totally geodesic submanifold. To support our findings, we provide several examples. Full article

Differential cohomology is a topic that has been attracting considerable interest. Many interesting applications in mathematics and physics have been known, including the description of WZW terms, string structures, the study of conformal immersions, and classifications of Ramond–Ramond fields, to list a few. Additionally, it is an interesting application of the theory of infinity categories. In this paper, we give an expository account of differential cohomology and the classification of higher line bundles (also known as S1-banded gerbes) with a connection.We begin with how Čech cohomology is used to classify principal bundles and define their characteristic classes, introduce differential cohomology à la Cheeger and Simons, and introduce S1-banded gerbes with a connection.

The behavior of the simplest realistic Oregonator model of the BZ-reaction from the perspective of KCC theory has been investigated. In order to reduce the complexity of the model, we initially transformed the first-order differential equation of the Oregonator model into a system of second-order differential equations. In this approach, we describe the evolution of the Oregonator model in geometric terms, by considering it as a geodesic in a Finsler space. We have found five KCC invariants using the general expression of the nonlinear and Berwald connections. To understand the chaotic behavior of the Oregonator model, the deviation vector and its curvature around equilibrium points are studied. We have obtained the necessary and sufficient conditions for the parameters of the system in order to have the Jacobi stability near the equilibrium points. Further, a comprehensive examination was conducted to compare the linear stability and Jacobi stability of the Oregonator model at its equilibrium points, and We highlight these instances with a few illustrative examples.

A principal curve on a surface plays a paramount role in reasonable implementations. A curve on a surface is a principal curve if its tangents are principal directions. Using the Serret–Frenet frame, the surface pencil couple can be expressed as linear combinations of the components of the local frames in Galilean 3-space G3. With these parametric representations, a family of surfaces using principal curves (curvature lines) are constructed, and the necessary and sufficient condition for the given Bertrand couple to be the principal curves on these surfaces are derived in our approach. Moreover, the necessary and sufficient condition for the given Bertrand couple to satisfy the principal curves and the geodesic requirements are also analyzed. As implementations of our main consequences, we expound upon some models to confirm the method. Full article

This study utilizes the axodes invariants to derive novel hyperbolic proofs of the Euler–Savary and Disteli formulae. The inflection circle, which is widely recognized, is situated on the hyperbolic dual unit sphere, in accordance with the principles of the kinematic theory of spherical locomotions. Subsequently, a timelike line congruence is defined and its spatial equivalence is thoroughly studied. The formulated assertions degenerate into a quadratic form, which facilitates a comprehensive understanding of the geometric features of the inflection line congruence. Full article

The aim of this paper is to characterize a Riemannian 3-manifold M3 equipped with a semi-symmetric metric ξ-connection ˜ with ρ-Einstein and gradient ρ-Einstein solitons. The existence of a gradient ρ-Einstein soliton in an M3 admitting ˜ is ensured by constructing a non-trivial example, and hence some of our results are verified. By using standard tensorial technique, we prove that the scalar curvature of (M3,˜) satisfies the Poisson equation ΔR=4(2σ6ρ)ρ. Full article

In this paper, we investigate the geometrical axioms of Riemannian submersions in the context of the η-Ricci–Yamabe soliton (η-RY soliton) with a potential field. We give the categorization of each fiber of Riemannian submersion as an η-RY soliton, an η-Ricci soliton, and an η-Yamabe soliton. Additionally, we consider the many circumstances under which a target manifold of Riemannian submersion is an η-RY soliton, an η-Ricci soliton, an η-Yamabe soliton, or a quasi-Yamabe soliton. We deduce a Poisson equation on a Riemannian submersion in a specific scenario if the potential vector field ω of the soliton is of gradient type =:grad(γ) and provide some examples of an η-RY soliton, which illustrates our finding. Finally, we explore a number theoretic approach to Riemannian submersion with totally geodesic fibers. Full article

The class of warped product metrics can often be interpreted as key space models for the general theory of relativity and theory of space–time. In this paper, we study several non-Riemannian quantities in Finsler geometry. These non-Riemannian quantities play an important role in understanding the geometric properties of Finsler metrics. In particular, we find differential equations of Finsler warped product metrics with vanishing χ-curvature or vanishing H-curvature. Furthermore, we show that, for Finsler warped product metrics, the χ-curvature vanishes if and only if the H-curvature vanishes. Full article

The purpose of this paper is to find some conditions under which the tangent bundle TM has a dualistic structure. Then, we introduce infinitesimal affine transformations on statistical manifolds and investigate these structures on a special statistical distribution and the tangent bundle of a statistical manifold too. Moreover, we also study the mutual curvatures of a statistical manifold M and its tangent bundle TM and we investigate their relations. More precisely, we obtain the mutual curvatures of well-known connections on the tangent bundle TM (the complete, horizontal, and Sasaki connections) and we study the vanishing of them. Full article
