Pointwise Pseudo-Slant Submanifolds of a Kenmotsu Manifold

In the present article, we have investigated pointwise pseudo-slant submanifolds of Kenmotsu manifolds and have sought conditions under which these submanifolds are warped products. To this end first, it is shown that these submanifolds can not be expressed as non-trivial doubly warped product submanifolds. However, as there exist non-trivial (single) warped product submanifolds of a Kenmotsu manifold, we have worked out characterizations in terms of a canonical structure T and the shape operator under which a pointwise pseudo slant submanifold of a Kenmotsu manifold reduces to a warped product submanifold.
