Lifts of a Quarter-Symmetric Metric Connection from a Sasakian Manifold to Its Tangent Bundle

Abstract

The objective of this paper is to explore the complete lifts of a quarter-symmetric metric connection from a Sasakian manifold to its tangent bundle. A relationship between the Riemannian connection and the quarter-symmetric metric connection from a Sasakian manifold to its tangent bundle was established. Some theorems on the curvature tensor and the projective curvature tensor of a Sasakian manifold with respect to the quarter-symmetric metric connection to its tangent bundle were proved. Finally, locally ϕ-symmetric Sasakian manifolds with respect to the quarter-symmetric metric connection to its tangent bundle were studied.
