Abstract
We consider classes of weakly cosymplectic manifolds whose Riemannian curvature tensors satisfy contact analogs of the Riemannian–Christoffel identities. Additional properties of the Riemannian curvature tensor symmetry are found and a classification of weakly cosymplectic manifolds is obtained.
