Characterizations of warped product pointwise semi-slant submanifolds of Sasakian manifold

초록

A warped product submanifold, whose tangent bundle can be decomposed to two orthogonal distributions; invariant and pointwise slant, is called a warped product pointwise semi-slant submanifold. The objective of this paper is to classify warped product pointwise semi-slant submanifolds, isometrically immersed into a Sasakian manifold. Park [25] provided the (non)-existence of a warped product pointwise semi-slant submanifold in a Sasakian manifold such that the structure vector field is tangential to fibers. In contrast, we provide intriguing theorems on warped product pointwise semi-slant submanifolds in a Sasakian manifold in terms of the shape operator and tensor fields such that the structure vector field is tangential to a base manifold and each fiber is a pointwise slant submanifold.
