We prove that the characteristic Jacobi operator on a contact metric three manifold is semiparallel if and only if it vanishes. We determine Lie groups of dimension three admitting left invariant contact metric structures such that the characteristic Jacobi operators are pseudoparallel.

AbstractWe study left-invariant almost paracontact metric structures on arbitrary three-dimensional Lorentzian Lie groups. We obtain a complete classification and description under a natural assumption, which includes relevant classes as normal and almost para-cosymplectic structures, and we investigate geometric properties of these structures.

AbstractIt is known that there are no real hypersurfaces with parallel structure Jacobi operators in a nonflat complex space form. In this paper, we classify real hypersurfaces in a nonflat complex space form whose structure Jacobi operator is cyclic-parallel.

AbstractA pseudo-Riemannian manifold is said to be timelike (spacelike) Osserman if the Jordan form of the Jacobi operator Kx is independent of the particular unit timelike (spacelike) tangent vector X. The first main result is that timelike (spacelike) Osserman manifold (M, g) of signature (2, 2) with the diagonalizable Jacobi operator is either locally rank-one symmetric or flat. In the nondiagonalizable case the characteristic polynomial of Kx has to have a triple zero, which is the other main result. An important step in the proof is based on Walker's study of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds admitting parallel totally isotropic distributions. Also some interesting additional geometric properties of Osserman type manifolds are established. For the nondiagonalizable Jacobi operators some of the examples show a nature of the Osserman condition for Riemannian manifolds different from that of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds.

AbstractLet M be a complete Riemannian manifold and suppose {p\in M}. For each unit vector {v\in T_{p}M}, the Jacobi operator, {\mathcal{J}_{v}:v^{\perp}\rightarrow v^{\perp}} is the symmetric endomorphism, {\mathcal{J}_{v}(w)=R(w,v)v}. Then p is an isotropic point if there exists a constant {\kappa_{p}\in{\mathbb{R}}} such that {\mathcal{J}_{v}=\kappa_{p}\operatorname{Id}_{v^{\perp}}} for each unit vector {v\in T_{p}M}. If all points are isotropic, then M is said to be isotropic; it is a classical result of Schur that isotropic manifolds of dimension at least 3 have constant sectional curvatures. In this paper we consider almost isotropic manifolds, i.e. manifolds having the property that for each {p\in M}, there exists a constant {\kappa_{p}\in\mathbb{R}} such that the Jacobi operators {\mathcal{J}_{v}} satisfy {\operatorname{rank}({\mathcal{J}_{v}-\kappa_{p}\operatorname{Id}_{v^{\perp}}}% )\leq 1} for each unit vector {v\in T_{p}M}. Our main theorem classifies the almost isotropic simply connected Kähler manifolds, proving that those of dimension {d=2n\geqslant 4} are either isometric to complex projective space or complex hyperbolic space or are totally geodesically foliated by leaves isometric to {{\mathbb{C}}^{n-1}}.

Along a transversal geodesic γ whose tangent belongs to the contact distribution D, we define the transversal Jacobi operator Rγ=R(·,γ˙)γ˙ on an almost contact Riemannian manifold M. Then, using the transversal Jacobi operator Rγ, we give a new characterization of the Sasakian sphere. In the second part, we characterize the complete ruled real hypersurfaces in complex hyperbolic space.

In this work, we apply the notion of D-homothetic deformation on an almost paracontact metric manifolds and show that the structure after the deformation is also almost paracontact metric structure. Also, we state the classes of almost paracontact metric structures having parallel characteristic vector field and get some results about D- homothetic deformations on these classes.

AbstractWe study classifying problems for real hypersurfaces in a complex two-plane Grassmannian G2(ℂm+2). In relation to the generalized Tanaka–Webster connection, we consider a new concept of parallel normal Jacobi operator for real hypersurfaces in G2(ℂm+2) and prove that a real hypersurface in G2(ℂm+2) with generalized Tanaka–Webster 𝔇⊥-parallel normal Jacobi operator is locally congruent to an open part of a tube around a totally geodesic quaternionic projective space ℍPn in G2(ℂm+2), where m = 2n.

Abstract Sturm–Liouville oscillation theory is studied for Jacobi operators with block entries given by covariant operators on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space. It is shown that the integrated density of states of the Jacobi operator is approximated by the winding of the Prüfer phase w.r.t. the trace per unit volume. This rotation number can be interpreted as a spectral flow in a von Neumann algebra with finite trace.
