In this paper, we obtain some vanishing theorems for p-harmonic 1-forms on locally conformally flat Riemannian manifolds which admit an integral pinching condition on the curvature operators.

We proved that if a fibred Riemannian space $\tilde{M}$ with cosymplectic structure is conformally flat, then $\tilde{M}$ is the locally product manifold of locally Euclidean spaces, that is locally Euclidean. Moreover, we investigated the fibred Riemannian space with cosymplectic structure when the Riemannian metric $\tilde{g}$ on $\tilde{M}$ is Einstein.

We deal with two metrics of Randers type, which are characterized by the solution of certain differential equations respectively. Furthermore, we will give the condition for a Finsler space with such a metric to be a locally Minkowski space or a conformally flat space, respectively.

We show that on a compact locally conformal K$\ddot{a}$hler manifold $M^{2n}$ (dim $M^{2n}\;=\;2n\;{\geq}\;4$), $M^{2n}$ is K$\ddot{a}$hler if and only if its conformal scalar curvature k is not smaller than the scalar curvature s of $M^{2n}$ everywhere. As a consequence, if a compact locally conformal K$\ddot{a}$hler manifold $M^{2n}$ is both conformally flat and scalar flat, then $M^{2n}$ is K$\ddot{a}$hler. In contrast with the compact case, we show that there exists a locally conformal K$\ddot{a}$hler manifold with k equal to s, which is not K$\ddot{a}$hler.

We prove that totally umbilical submanifold M of an extended quasi-recurren manifold is also extended quasi-recurrent. If, moreover, M is conformally flat then, locally, M is isometric to the manifold with known metric. Some curvature properties of such submanifold are investigated. Making use of these results we shall prove the existence of totally umbilical submanifold being pseudosymmetric in the sense of Ryszard Deszcz and satisfying some other curvature conditions.

In this paper, we prove that every weakly Einstein slope metric, which is conformally flat on a manifold M of dimension n ≥ 3, is either a locally Minkowski metric or a Riemannian metric. We also prove the same result for conformally flat weakly Einstein Kropina metrics.

In this paper, we study conformally flat (${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$)-metrics in the form $F={\alpha}(1+{\sum_{j=1}^{m}}\;a_j({\frac{\beta}{\alpha}})^j)$ with $m{\geq}2$, where ${\alpha}$ is a Riemannian metric and ${\beta}$ is a 1-form on a smooth manifold M. We prove that if such conformally flat (${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$)-metric F is of weakly isotropic scalar curvature, then it must has zero scalar curvature. Moreover, if $a_{m-1}a_m{\neq}0$, then such metric is either locally Minkowskian or Riemannian.

In this paper, we show several vanishing type theorems for p-harmonic ${\ell}$-forms on Riemannian manifolds ($p{\geq}2$). First of all, we consider complete non-compact immersed submanifolds $M^n$ of $N^{n+m}$ with flat normal bundle, we prove that any p-harmonic ${\ell}$-form on M is trivial if N has pure curvature tensor and M satisfies some geometric conditions. Then, we obtain a vanishing theorem on Riemannian manifolds with a weighted $Poincar{\acute{e}}$ inequality. Final, we investigate complete simply connected, locally conformally flat Riemannian manifolds M and point out that there is no nontrivial p-harmonic ${\ell}$-form on M provided that the Ricci curvature has suitable bound.

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 = ${\alpha}^2$.

In [3] and [4], Kitahara, Pak and the author obtained the conformally invariant tensor $B_0$, which is an algebraic Hermitian analogue of the Weyl conformal curvature tensor W in the Riemannian geometry, by the decomposition of the curvature tensor H of the Hermitian connection and the notion of semi-curvature-like tensors of Tanno (see[7]). In [5], the author defined a conformally invariant tensor $B_0$ on a Hermitian manifold as a modification of $B_0$. Moreover he introduced the notion of local conformal Hermitian-flatness of Hermitian manifolds and proved that the vanishing of this tensor $B_0$ together with some condition for the scalar curvatures is a necessary and sufficient condition for a Hermitian manifold to be locally conformally Hermitian-flat.
