Generalized Sasakian-space-forms and Ricci almost solitons with a conformal killing vector field

Abstract

The present paper deals with the study of generalized Sasakian-space-forms whose metric is Ricci almost soliton with a conformal killing vector field. We obtain sufficient conditions of such type of Ricci almost solitons to be expanding, steady and shrinking respectively.
