Abstract

Let (M,g) be a pseudo-Riemannian manifold and $T^2M$ be its the second-order tangent bundle equipped with the deformed 2-nd lift metric g which obtained from the 2-nd lift metric by deforming the horizontal part with a symmetric (0,2)-tensor field c. In the present paper, we first compute the Levi-Civita connection and its Riemannian curvature tensor field of $(T^2M,g)$. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for $(T^2M,g)$ to be semi-symmetric. Secondly, we show that $(T^2M,g)$ is a plural-holomorphic B-manifold with the natural integrable nilpotent structure. Finally, we get the conditions under which $(T^2M,g)$ with the 2-nd lift of an almost complex structure is an anti-K\"ahler manifold
