Cheeger Gromoll type metrics on the tangent bundle

Abstract

In this paper we study a Riemanian metric on the tangent bundle $T(M)$ of a Riemannian manifold $M$ which generalizes the Cheeger Gromoll metric and a compatible almost complex structure which together with the metric confers to $T(M)$ a structure of locally conformal almost K\"ahlerian manifold. We found conditions under which $T(M)$ is almost K\"ahlerian, locally conformal K\"ahlerian or K\"ahlerian or when $T(M)$ has constant sectional curvature or constant scalar curvature.
