Abstract

Almost contact metric (аст-)structures induced on oriented hypersurfaces of a Kählerian manifold are considered in the case when these аст- structures are of cosymplectic type, i. e. the contact form of these structures is closed. As it is known, the Kenmotsu structure is the most important non-trivial example of an almost contact metric structure of cosymplectic type. The Cartan structural equations of the almost contact metric structure of cosymplectic type on a hypersurface of a Kählerian manifold are obtained. It is proved that an almost contact metric structure of cosymplectic type on a hypersurface of a Kählerian manifold of dimension at least six cannot be a Kenmotsu structure. Moreover, it follows that oriented hypersurfaces of a Kählerian manifold of dimension at least six do not admit non-trivial almost contact metric structures of cosymplectic type that belong to any well studied class of аст-structures. The present results generalize some results on almost contact metric structures on hypersurfaces of an almost Hermitian manifold obtained earlier by V. F. Kirichenko, L. V. Stepanova, A. Abu-Saleem, M. B. Banaru and others.
