“…According to (14), a direction field w α defines an isotropic direction in W 2n+1 if αβ w α w β = 0. Then, by (12) and (19) it is easy to prove that the direction fields . Then, T α = grad, and according to [7](p. 157), the spaces W 2n+1 and W 2n+1 are Riemannian and pseudo-Riemannian, respectively, which we denote by V 2n+1 and V 2n+1 .…”

“…Riemannian spaces with almost contact and almost paracontact structures have been studied in [1,3,5,6,[13][14][15]. In [11,12,16,17] Weyl spaces are studied, and in [19] nilpotent structures have been considered.…”
Odd-dimensional Weyl and pseudo-Weyl spaces admitting almost contact, almost paracontact and nilpotent structures are considered in this work. The results are obtained by means of the apparatus of the prolonged covariant differentiation. A linear connection with torsion is constructed. With respect to this connection the prolonged covariant derivatives of the fundamental tensors of the Weyl and pseudo-Weyl spaces are found to be zero. The curvature tensor with respect to this connection is considered.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
