On normality of f.pk-structures on g-manifolds

Abstract

We consider higher dimensional generalisations of normal almost contact structures, the so called f.pk-structures where parallelism spans a Lie algebra g (f.pk-g-structures). Two types of these structures are discussed. In the first case, we construct an almost complex structure on a product manifold mirroring K-structures. We show that the natural normality condition can be satisfied only when g is abelian. The second case we consider is when the Lie algebra in question is 3-dimensional, but the almost complex structure on a product is constructed in a different manner. In both cases the normality conditions are expressed in terms of the structure tensors.
