Özet

We study the Riemann curvature tensor of -contact metric manifolds, which we prove to be completely determined in dimension 3. We also observe how this curvature tensor is affected by -homothetic deformations, which will prompt the definition and study of generalized -space forms and of the necessary and sufficient conditions for them to be conformally flat.
