An isometry of hyperbolic space can be written as a composition of the reflection in the isometric sphere and two Euclidean isometries on the boundary at infinity. The isometric sphere is also used to construct the Ford fundamental domains for the action of discrete groups of isometries. In this paper, we study the isometric spheres of isometries acting on hyperbolic 4-space. This is a new phenomenon which occurs in hyperbolic 4-space that the two isometric spheres of a parabolic isometry can intersect transversally. We provide one geometric way to classify isometries of hyperbolic 4-space using the isometric spheres.

The present paper deals with Lorentzian ${\alpha}-Sasakian$ manifolds with conformally flat and quasi conform ally flat curvature tensor. It is shown that in both cases, the manifold is locally isometric with a sphere $S^{2^{n}+1}(c)$. Further it is shown that an Lorentzian ${\alpha}-Sasakian$ manifold with R(X, Y).C = 0 is locally isometric with a sphere $S^{2^{n}+1}(c)$, where c = ${\alpha}^2$.

Let $S^{n+p}$(c) be the (n + p)-dimensional Euclidean sphere of constant curva ture c and let M be an n-dimensional compact minimal submanifold isometric ally immersed in $S^{n+p}$(c). Let $A_\xi$ be the second fundamental form of M in the direction of a normal $\xi$ and T the tensor defined by $T(\xi, \eta) = traceA_\xi A_\eta$.

We show that an n-dimensional unit sphere in the 2n-dimensional de Sitter space can be associated to a solution of a partial differential equation on a Lorentzian Grassmannian system coming from the integrable system theory.

Consider a gradient Einstein-type metric in the setting of K-contact manifolds and (κ, µ)-contact manifolds. First, it is proved that, if a complete K-contact manifold admits a gradient Einstein-type metric, then M is compact, Einstein, Sasakian and isometric to the unit sphere 𝕊²ⁿ⁺¹. Next, it is proved that, if a non-Sasakian (κ, µ)-contact manifolds admits a gradient Einstein-type metric, then it is flat in dimension 3, and for higher dimension, M is locally isometric to the product of a Euclidean space 𝔼ⁿ⁺¹ and a sphere 𝕊ⁿ(4) of constant curvature +4.

In this short paper, we investigate the existence of non-trivial almost Ricci solitones on static manifolds. As a result we show any compact nontrivial static manifold is isometric to a Euclidean sphere.

It has been conjectured that, on a compact orient able manifold M, a critical point of the total scalar curvature functional restricted the space of unit volume metrics of constant scalar curvature is Einstein. In this paper we show that if a manifold is a 3-dimensional warped product, then (M, g) cannot be a critical point unless it is isometric to the standard sphere.

In the present paper, we discuss the rigidity phenomenon of closed minimal submanifolds in a locally symmetric Riemannian manifold with pinched sectional curvature. We show that if the sectional curvature of the submanifold is no less than an explicitly given constant, then either the submanifold is totally geodesic, or the ambient space is a sphere and the submanifold is isometric to a product of two spheres or the Veronese surface in $S^4$.

Let ($M,{\mathcal{F}}$) be a closed, oriented Riemannian manifold of a foliation ${\mathcal{F}}$ with a nonisometric transversal conformal field. Then ($M,{\mathcal{F}}$) is transversally isometric to the sphere under some transversal concircular curvature conditions.
