Abstract

We prove that if the f -sectional curvature at any point of a ( 2 n + s ) -dimensional metric f -contact manifold satisfying the ( κ , μ ) nullity condition with n > 1 is independent of the f -section at the point, then it is constant on the manifold. Moreover, we also prove that a non-normal metric f -contact manifold satisfying the ( κ , μ ) nullity condition is of constant f -sectional curvature if and only if μ = κ + 1 and we give an explicit expression for the curvature tensor field in such a case. Finally, we present some examples.
