Abstract
In this paper, we study the Einstein multiply warped products with a semi-
symmetric non-metric connection and the multiply warped products with a semi-
symmetric non-metric connection with constant scalar curvature, we apply our
results to generalized Robertson-Walker spacetimes with a semi-symmetric non-
metric connection and generalized Kasner spacetimes with a semi-symmetric non-
metric connection and nd some new examples of Einstein ane manifolds and
ane manifolds with constant scalar curvature. We also consider the multiply
warped products with an ane connection with a zero torsion.
Keywords: Multiply warped products; semi-symmetric non-metric connec-
tion; Ricci tensor; scalar curvature; Einstein manifolds
1 Introduction
The (singly) warped product B
b
F of two pseudo-Riemannian manifolds (B, g
B
)
and (F, g
F
) with a smooth function b : B (0, ) is the product manifold B F
with the metric tensor g = g
B
b
2
g
F
. Here, (B, g
B
) is called the base manifold
and (F, g
F
) is called as the ber manifold and b is called as the warping function.
Generalized Robertson-Walker space-times and standard static space-times are two
well-known warped product spaces.The concept of warped products was rst intro-
duced by Bishop and ONeil (see [BO]) to construct examples of Riemannian mani-
folds with negative curvature. In Riemannian geometry, warped product manifolds
and their generic forms have been used to construct new examples with interesting
curvature properties since then. In [DD], F. Dobarro and E. Dozo had studied from
the viewpoint of partial dierential equations and variational methods, the problem
of showing when a Riemannian metric of constant scalar curvature can be produced
on a product manifolds by a warped product construction. In [EJK], Ehrlich, Jung
and Kim got explicit solutions to warping function to have a constant scalar curvature
for generalized Robertson-Walker space-times. In [ARS], explicit solutions were also
obtained for the warping function to make the space-time as Einstein when the ber
is also Einstein.

B
= dt
2
and
(F
i
, g
F
i
) is a Riemannian manifold, we call M as the multiply generalized Robertson-
Walker space-time. In [DU], Dobarro and

Unal studied Ricci-at and Einstein-
Lorentzian multiply warped products and considered the case of having constant
scalar curvature for multiply warped products and applied their results to general-
ized Kasner space-times.
Singly warped products have a natural generalization. A twisted product (M, g) is
a product manifold of form M = B
b
F, with a smooth function b : BF (0, ),
and the metric tensor g = g

F
. In [FGKU], they showed that mixed Ricci-
at twisted products could be expressed as warped products. As a consequence,
any Einstein twisted products are warped products. In [Wa], we dene the mul-
tiply twisted products as generalizations of multiply warped products and twisted
products. A multiply twisted product (M, g) is a product manifold of form M =

The denition of a semi-symmetric metric connection was given by H. Hayden
in [Ha]. In 1970, K. Yano [Ya] considered a semi-symmetric metric connection and
studied some of its properties. He proved that a Riemannian manifold admitting the
semi-symmetric metric connection has vanishing curvature tensor if and only if it is
conformally at. Motivated by the Yano result, in [SO1], Sular and

Ozgur studied
warped product manifolds with a semi-symmetric metric connection, they computed
curvature of semi-symmetric metric connection and considered Einstein warped prod-
uct manifolds with a semi-symmetric metric connection. In [Wa], we considered mul-
tiply twisted products with a semi-symmetric metric connection and computed the
curvature of a semi-symmetric metric connection. We showed that mixed Ricci-at
multiply twisted products with a semi-symmetric metric connection can be expressed
as multiply warped products which generalizes the result in [FGKU]. We also studied
the Einstein multiply warped products with a semi-symmetric metric connection and
multiply warped products with a semi-symmetric metric connection with constant
scalar curvature, we applied our results to generalized Robertson-Walker spacetimes
with a semi-symmetric metric connection and generalized Kasner spacetimes with
a semi-symmetric metric connection and we found some new examples of Einstein
ane manifolds and ane manifolds with constant scalar curvature. We also classi-
ed generalized Einstein Robertson-Walker spacetimes with a semi-symmetric metric
connection and generalized Einstein Kasner spacetimes with a semi-symmetric met-
ric connection. In [AC1,2], Agashe and Chae introduced the notation of a semi-
symmetric metric connection and studied some of its properties and submanifolds
of a Riemannian manifold with semi-symmetric non-metric connections. In [SO2],
they studied warped product manifolds with a semi-symmetric non-metric connec-
tion. The purpose of this paper is to study the Einstein multiply warped products
2
with a semi-symmetric non-metric connection and multiply warped products with a
semi-symmetric non-metric connection with constant scalar curvature.
This paper is arranged as follows: In Section 2, we compute curvature of multi-
ply twisted products with a semi-symmetric non-metric connection. In Section 3, we
study the special multiply warped products with a semi-symmetric non-metric con-
nection. In Section 4, we study the generalized Robertson-Walker spacetimes with
a semi-symmetric non-metric connection. In Section 5, we consider the generalized
Kasner spacetimes with a semi-symmetric non-metric connection. In Section 6, we
compute curvature of multiply twisted products with an ane connection with a zero
torsion.

Here, (B, g

) is called the base manifold and (F

) is called as the ber manifold
and b

is called as the twisted function. Obviously, twisted products and multiply
warped products are the special cases of multiply twisted products.
Let M be a Riemannian manifold with Riemannian metric g. A linear connection
on a Riemannian manifold M is called a semi-symmetric connection if the torsion
tensor T of the connection
T(X, Y ) =
X
Y
Y
X [X, Y ] (2.1)
satises
T(X, Y ) = (Y )X (X)Y, (2.2)
where is a 1-form associated with the vector eld P on M dened by (X) =
g(X.P). is called a semi-symmetric metric connection if it satises g = 0. is
called a semi-symmetric non-metric connection if it satises g = 0.
If is the Levi-Civita connection of M, the semi-symmetric non-metric connec-
tion is given by

X
Y =
X
Y +(Y )X, (2.3)
(see [AC1]). Let R and R be the curvature tensors of and respectively. Then R
and R are related by

Then (M, ) is Einstein with the Einstein constant if and only if the following

When c
