Characterization of Almost \ (\) -Ricci Solitons With Respect to Schouten-van Kampen Connection on Sasakian Manifolds

In this paper, we investigate Sasakian manifolds that admit almost \ (\) -Ricci solitons with respect to the Schouten-van Kampen connection using certain curvature tensors. Concepts of Ricci pseudosymmetry for Sasakian manifolds admitting \ (\) -Ricci solitons are introduced based on the selection of specific curvature tensors such as Riemann, concircular, projective, pseudo-projective, M-projective, and W2 tensors. Subsequently, necessary conditions are established for a Sasakian manifold admitting \ (\) -Ricci soliton with respect to the Schouten-van Kampen connection to be Ricci semisymmetric, based on the choice of curvature tensors. Characterizations are then derived, and classifications are made under certain conditions.
