Metrics of Kaluza–Klein type on the anti‐de Sitter space

We introduce and study a new family of pseudo‐Riemannian metrics on the anti‐de Sitter three‐space . These metrics will be called “of Kaluza‐Klein type” , as they are induced in a natural way by the corresponding metrics defined on the tangent sphere bundle . For any choice of three real parameters , the pseudo‐Riemannian manifold is homogeneous. Moreover, we shall introduce and study some natural almost contact and paracontact structures , compatible with , such that is a homogeneous almost contact (respectively, paracontact) metric structure. These structures will be then used to show the existence of a three‐parameter family of homogeneous metric mixed 3‐structures on the anti‐de Sitter three‐space.
