Some results on almost Kenmotsu manifolds
Abstract
First we consider almost Kenmotsu manifolds which satisfy Codazzi condition for 
 and 
, and we prove that in such cases the tensor 
 vanishes. Next, we prove that an almost Kenmotsu manifold having constant 
-sectional curvature 
 which is locally symmetric is a Kenmotsu manifold of constant curvature 
. We also prove that, for a 
-almost Kenmotsu manifold of 
 with 
, every conformal vector field is Killing. Finally, we prove that if 
 is a 
-almost Kenmotsu manifold with 
 and 
, then the vector field 
 which leaves the curvature tensor invariant is Killing.
