Biharmonic product maps between doubly warped product manifolds

The biharmonicity of the product map Φ2=φ×ψ and the two generalized projections φ-and ψ-are analyzed. Some results are obtained, that is, Φ2 is a proper biharmonic map if and only if b is a non-constant solution of -1/f2 Jφ（dφ（grad（lnb）））＋n/2 grad｜dφ（grad（lnb））｜2=0 and f is a non-constant solution of -1/b2Jψ（dψ（grad（lnf）））＋m/2grad｜dψ（grad（lnf））｜2=0, and Φ2=φ×ψ is a proper biharmonic map if and only if φ-and ψ-are proper biharmonic maps.

ON DOUBLY WARPED PRODUCT OF COMPLEX FINSLER MANIFOLDS

Let （M1, F1） and （M2, F2） be two strongly pseudoconvex complex Finsler man- ifolds. The doubly wraped product complex Finsler manifold （f2 M1 x h M2, F） of （M1, F1） and （M2, F2） is the product manifold M1 x M2 endowed with the warped product complex 2 2 Finsler metric F2 = f2F1 ＋ fl F2, where fl and f2 are positive smooth functions on M1 and M2, respectively. In this paper, the most often used complex Finsler connections, holomorphic curvature, Ricci scalar curvature, and real geodesics of the DWP-complex Finsler manifold are derived in terms of the corresponding objects of its components. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the DWP-complex Finsler manifold to be K/ihler Finsler （resp., weakly K/ihler Finsler, complex Berwald, weakly complex Berwald, complex Landsberg） manifold are ob- tained, respectively. It is proved that if （M1, F1） and （M2,F2） are projectively flat, then the DWP-complex Finsler manifold is projectively flat if and only if fl and f2 are positive constants.

f-Harmonic maps of doubly warped product manifolds

In this paper,we study f-harmonicity of some special maps from or into a doubly warped product manifold.First we recall some properties of doubly twisted product manifolds.After showing that the inclusion maps from Riemannian manifolds M and N into the doubly warped product manifold M ×（μ,λ） N can not be proper f-harmonic maps,we use projection maps and product maps to construct nontrivial f-harmonic maps.Thus we obtain some similar results given in [21],such as the conditions for f-harmonicity of projection maps and some characterizations for non-trivial f-harmonicity of the special product maps.Furthermore,we investigate non-trivial f-harmonicity of the product of two harmonic maps.

S-curvature of Doubly Warped Product of Finsler Manifolds

Doubly warped product of Finsler manifolds is useful in theoretical physics,particularly in general relativity.In this paper,we study doubly warped product of Finsler manifolds with isotropic mean Berwald curvature or weak isotropic S-curvature.
