Study of Kenmotsu manifolds with semi-symmetric metric connection
Abstract
The present paper deals with the study of Kenmotsu manifolds equipped with a semi-symmetric metric connection. The properties of $\eta-$parallel Ricci tensor, globally symmetric and $\phi-$symmetric Kenmotsu manifolds with the semi-symmetric metric connection are evaluated. In the end, we construct an example of a $3-$dimensional Kenmotsu manifold admitting semi-symmetric metric connection and verify our some results.
