Geometry of conformal η-Ricci solitons and conformal η-Ricci almost solitons on paracontact geometry

Abstract

Abstract We prove that if an η \eta -Einstein para-Kenmotsu manifold admits a conformal η \eta -Ricci soliton then it is Einstein. Next, we proved that a para-Kenmotsu metric as a conformal η \eta -Ricci soliton is Einstein if its potential vector field V V is infinitesimal paracontact transformation or collinear with the Reeb vector field. Furthermore, we prove that if a para-Kenmotsu manifold admits a gradient conformal η \eta -Ricci almost soliton and the Reeb vector field leaves the scalar curvature invariant then it is Einstein. We also construct an example of para-Kenmotsu manifold that admits conformal η \eta -Ricci soliton and satisfy our results. We also have studied conformal η \eta -Ricci soliton in three-dimensional para-cosymplectic manifolds.
