-Ricci solitons in -almost paracontact metric manifolds
The object of this paper is to study -Ricci solitons on -almost paracontact metric manifolds. We investigate -Ricci solitons in the case when its potential vector field is exactly the characteristic vector field of the -almost paracontact metric manifold and when the potential vector field is torse-forming. We also study Einstein-like and -para Sasakian manifolds admitting -Ricci solitons. Finally we obtain some results for -Ricci solitons on -almost paracontact metric manifolds with a special view towards parallel symmetric (0,2)-tensor fields.
