Starting from g-natural pseudo-Riemannian metrics of suitable signature on the unit tangent sphere bundle T1M of a Riemannian manifold (M,g), we construct a family of paracontact metric structures. We prove that this class of paracontact metric structures is invariant under D-homothetic deformations, and classify paraSasakian and paracontact (κ,μ)-spaces inside this class. We also present a way to build paracontact (κ,μ)-spaces from corresponding contact metric structures on T1M.

Abstract

Starting from g-natural pseudo-Riemannian metrics of suitable signature on the unit tangent sphere bundle T1M of a Riemannian manifold (M,g), we construct a family of paracontact metric structures. We prove that this class of paracontact metric structures is invariant under D-homothetic deformations, and classify paraSasakian and paracontact (κ,μ)-spaces inside this class. We also present a way to build paracontact (κ,μ)-spaces from corresponding contact metric structures on T1M.
