Popis: Quasi-contact metric manifolds (introduced by Y. Tashiro and then studied by several authors) are a natural extension of contact metric manifolds. Weak almost-contact metric manifolds, i.e., where the linear complex structure on the contact distribution is replaced by a nonsingular skew-symmetric tensor, have been defined by the author and R. Wolak. In this paper, we study a weak analogue of quasi-contact metric manifolds. Our main results generalize some well-known theorems and provide new criterions for K-contact and Sasakian manifolds in terms of conditions on the curvature tensor and other geometric objects associated with the weak quasi-contact metric structure.
