1 Introduction
The Riemannian geometry of complex contact manifolds has been studied since 1970s. In the early 1980s some important developments were presented by Ishihara-Konishi. They obtained the normality conditions and curvature properties [9, 10]. Due to some important features that are different from real contact geometry, in 2000s some researchers have taken their attention to this notion. Blair, Korkmaz and Foreman gave results for the Riemannian geometry of complex contact manifolds [2,4,5,8,12]. Also two of presented authors examined curvature and symmetry notions [15, 16].
In Riemannian geometry the notion of connection gives information about transporting data along a curve or family of curves in a parallel and consistent manner. Affine connections and Levi-Civita connections are commonly used for to understand the geometry of manifolds. Levi-Civita connection is symmetric, i.e, has zero torsion, and also it is metric, i.e, the covariant derivation of metric vanish. In recent years some different connections were defined and worked on manifolds. One of them is semi symmetric metric connection. This type of connection were defined by Hayden and this was developed by Yano [13].
Blair and Molina [4], proved that a normal complex contact metric manifold could not be conformal flat. Also Turgut Vanlı and Unal, prove that, concircular, quasi-conformal, and conharmonic curvature tensors do not vanish on any normal complex contact metric manifold [16].
In this paper, we study on normal complex contact metric manifold with a semi symmetric metric connection. Firstly, we give some basic properties. Our starting point was the non-vanishing of special curvature tensors (conformal, concircular, quasi-conformal etc.) on normal complex contact manifolds with canonic connection. We research the flatness conditions of these special tensors on normal complex contact metric manifold with a semi symmetric metric connection. We proved that a normal complex contact metric manifold admitting the semi symmetric metric connection is not conformal flat, concircular flat and conharmonic flat. Finally we apply our results to complex-Heisenberg group as a well-known example of normal complex contact metric manifolds.
2 Preliminaries
In 1959 Kobyasahi [11] gave the definition of a complex contact manifold. A complex contact manifold is a (2m + 1) – complex dimensional complex manifold with a holomorphic 1 – form ω such that ω ∧ (dω)m ≠ = 0. ω is not globally defined. For an open covering by coordinate neighborhoods 𝒜 ={𝒪,𝒪′,...} of M, there is a non-vanishing λ : 𝒪 ∩ 𝒪′ → ℂ\{0} such that ω′ = λ ω. We have a subbbundle ℋ = kerω which is called the horizontal subbundle.
With these properties M is said to be a complex almost contact metric manifold.
As similar to ϕ – sectional curvature in real contact geometry, in complex contact geometry the definition of 𝒢 ℋ – sectional curvature were given.
[12] Let M be a normal complex contact metric manifold. Z be an unit horizontal vector field on M and a2 + b2 = 1. A 𝒢 ℋ – section is a plane which is spanned by Z and T = aGZ + bHZ and the sectional curvature of this plane is called 𝒢 ℋ – sectional curvature.
3 Normal Complex Contact Metric Manifolds Admitting a Semi Symmetric Metric Connection
In this section the definition of a semi symmetric metric connection are given for normal complex contact metric manifolds. Some basic equalities are computed via this connection.
As we see
For brevity we use a abbreviation “NCCMM” for normal complex contact metric manifold, and (M,

The Riemannian and Ricci curvature properties of (M,
By consider all these equalities we get 6.
These results let us to obtain curvature properties of (M,
An other geometric important object in the complex contact geometry is dσ. In [15] an equality for dσ. By following Proposition we present a new version of dσ on a normal complex contact metric manifold M was obtained.
From this Proposition we get following corollary.
Since R(T,aGT + bHT,aGT + bHT,T) = 𝒢 ℋ (T) and a2 + b2 = 1 we obtain (16).
So we get (17).
Also from the above theorem we get following corollaries:

Therefore we obtain
6 Iwasawa Manifold Admitting a Semi Symmetric Metric Connection
An Iwasawa manifold is an important example of a compact complex manifold which does not admit any Kähler metric [6]. Fernandez and Gray [6] proved that an Iwasawa manifold has indefinite Kähler structure has symplectic forms each of which is Hermitian with respect to a complex structure.
Like real Heisenberg group is an example of contact manifolds (see [3]), complex Heisenberg group has complex almost contact structure. This structure was given by Baikoussis et al. [1] and normality of the structure was obtained by Korkmaz [12]. Also this manifold is the initial point of the work of Korkmaz and it distinguishes Korkmaz's normality from IK-normality.
Blair and Turgut Vanlı [14] worked on corrected energy of Iwasawa manifolds and also Turgut Vanlı and Unal [15] obtained some curvature results. In this section we examine Iwasawa Manifold with a semi symmetric metric connection.
In addition for ei, ej ∈ ℋ we have
We obtain curvatures of Iwasawa manifold admitting
