Ukrainian Mathematical Journal Aims and scope

We study three-dimensional trans-Sasakian manifolds admitting η-Ricci solitons. Actually, we investigate manifolds whose Ricci tensor satisfy some special conditions, such as cyclic parallelity, Ricci semisymmetry, and 𝜙-Ricci semisymmetry, after reviewing the properties of the second-order parallel tensors on these manifolds. We determine the form of the Riemann curvature tensor for trans-Sasakian manifolds of dimension greater than three as Kagan subprojective spaces. We also present some classification results for trans-Sasakian manifolds of dimension greater than three as Kagan subprojective spaces.
