Abstract


Abstract. In the present paper, biharmonic almost contact curves with respect to generalized Tanaka Webster
Okumura connections have been studied on three-dimensional trans-Sasakian manifolds. Locally phi-symmetric almost
contact curves on three-dimensional trans-Sasakian manifolds with respect to generalized Tanaka Webster Okumura
connections have been introduced. Hyperbolic space as a particular case of trans-Sasakian manifolds has been studied.
Examples of almost contact curves are given.


Keywords


Almost contact curve, trans-Sasakian manifold, hyperbolic space, generalized Tanaka Webster Okumura Connections.
