Abstract:

In this paper, we would like to establish some of the properties of slant and hemislant submanifolds of an indefinite trans-Sasakian manifold. We have four sections in this paper. The first section is introductory. In Section 2, we recall some necessary details of an indefinite trans-Sasakian manifold. In Section 3, we have obtained some interesting properties on a totally umbilical slant submanifolds of an indefinite trans-Sasakian manifold. Finally, in Section 4, some results on integrability conditions of the distributions of hemislant submanifolds of an indefinite trans-Sasakian manifold have been obtained.

Abstract:

We address the question of identifying the configuration space singularities of linkages, i.e., points where the configuration space is not locally a submanifold of Euclidean space. Because the configuration space cannot be smoothly parameterized at such points, these singularity types have a significantly negative impact on the kinematics of the linkage. It is known that Jacobian methods do not provide sufficient conditions for the existence of CS-singularities. Herein, we present several additional algebraic criteria that provide the sufficient conditions. Further, we use those criteria to analyze certain classes of planar linkages. These examples will also show how the presented criteria can be checked using algorithmic methods.
