In this article, we study isotropic submanifolds in locally metallic product space forms. Firstly, we establish the Chen–Ricci inequality for such submanifolds and determine the conditions under which the inequality becomes equality. Additionally, we explore the minimality of Lagrangian submanifolds in locally metallic product space forms, and we apply the result to create a classification theorem for isotropic submanifolds whose mean curvature is constant. More specifically, we have demonstrated that the submanifolds are either a product of two Einstein manifolds with Einstein constants, or they are isometric to a totally geodesic submanifold. To support our findings, we provide several examples.

This article explores the Ricci tensor of slant submanifolds within locally metallic product space forms equipped with a semi-symmetric metric connection (SSMC). Our investigation includes the derivation of the Chen–Ricci inequality and an in-depth analysis of its equality case. More precisely, if the mean curvature vector at a point vanishes, then the equality case of this inequality is achieved by a unit tangent vector at the point if and only if the vector belongs to the normal space. Finally, we have shown that when a point is a totally geodesic point or is totally umbilical with $n=2$, the equality case of this inequality holds true for all unit tangent vectors at the point, and conversely.

In this particular article, our focus revolves around the establishment of a geometric inequality, commonly referred to as Chen’s inequality. We specifically apply this inequality to assess the square norm of the mean curvature vector and the warping function of warped product slant submanifolds. Our investigation takes place within the context of locally metallic product space forms with quarter-symmetric metric connections. Additionally, we delve into the condition that determines when equality is achieved within the inequality. Furthermore, we explore a number of implications of our findings.

This work investigates the intricate dynamics of the Carreau hybrid nanofluid’s inclined magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow, exploring both active and passive control modes. The study incorporates critical factors, including Arrhenius activation energy across a stretched sheet, chemical interactions, and nonlinear thermal radiation. The formulation of the boundary conditions and governing equations is inherently influenced by symmetric considerations in the physical geometry and flow assumptions. Such symmetry-inspired modeling facilitates dimensional reduction and numerical tractability. The analysis employs realistic boundary conditions, including convective heat transfer and control of nanoparticle concentration, which are solved numerically using MATLAB’s bvp5c solver. Findings indicate that an increase in activation energy results in a steeper concentration boundary layer under active control, while it flattens in passive scenarios. An increase in the Biot number ($Bi$) and relaxation parameter ($\mathsf{\Gamma }$) enhances heat transfer and thermal response, leading to a rise in temperature distribution in both cases. Additionally, the 3D surface plot illustrates elevation variations from the surface at low inclination angles, narrowing as the angle increases. The Nusselt number demonstrates a contrasting trend, with thermal boundary layer thickness increasing with higher radiation parameters. A graphical illustration of the average values of skin friction, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number for both active and passive scenarios highlights the impact of each case. Under active control, the Brownian motion’s effect diminishes, whereas it intensifies in passive control. Passive techniques, such as zero-flux conditions, offer effective and low-maintenance solutions for systems without external regulation, while active controls, like wall heating and setting a nanoparticle concentration, maximize heat and mass transfer in shear-thinning Carreau fluids.

The flow of a two-dimensional incompressible hybrid nanofluid over a stretching cylinder containing microorganisms with parallel effect of inclined magnetohydrodynamic was examined in the current study in relation to chemical reactions, heat source effect, nonlinear heat radiation, and multiple convective boundaries. The main objective of this research is the optimization of heat transfer with inclined MHD and variation in different physical parameters. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into a set of ordinary differential equations by applying the appropriate similarity transformations. The Runge–Kutta method is recognized for using shooting as a technique. Surface plots, graphs, and tables have been used to illustrate how various parameters affect the local Nusselt number, mass transfer, and heat transmission. It is demonstrated that when the chemical reaction parameter rises, the concentration and motile concentration profiles drop. The least responsive is the rate of heat transfer to changes in the inclined magnetic field and most associated with changes in the Biot number and radiation parameter shown in contour plot. The streamline graph illustrates the way fluid flow is affected simultaneously by the magnetic parameter M and an angled magnetic field. Local Nusselt number and local skin friction are improved by the curvature parameter and mixed convection parameter. The contours highlight the intricate interactions between restricted magnetic field, significant radiation, and substantial convective condition factors by displaying the best heat transfer. The three-dimensional surface, scattered graph, pie chart, and residual plotting demonstrate the statistical analysis of the heat transfer. The results support their use in sophisticated energy, healthcare, and industrial systems and enhance our theoretical knowledge of hybrid nanofluid dynamics.

This study focuses on the analysis of the simultaneous impact of inclined magnetohydrodynamic Carreau hybrid nanofluid flow over a stretching sheet, including microorganisms with the effects of chemical reactions in the presence and absence of slip conditions for dilatant $(n>1.0)$ and quasi-elastic hybrid nanofluid $(n<1.0)$ limitations. Meanwhile, the transfer of energy is strengthened through the employment of heat sources and bioconvection. The analysis incorporates nonlinear thermal radiation, chemical reactions, and Arrhenius activation energy effects on different profiles. Numerical simulations are conducted using the efficient Bvp5c solver. Motile concentration profiles decrease as the density slip parameter of the motile microbe and Lb increase. The Weissenberg number exhibits a distinct nature depending on the hybrid nanofluid; the velocity profile, skin friction, and Nusselt number fall when $(n>1.0)$ and increase when $(n<1.0)$. For small values of inclination, the 3D surface plot is far the surface, while it is close to the surface for higher values of inclination but has the opposite behavior for the 3D plot of the Nusselt number. A detailed numerical investigation on the effects of important parameters on the thermal, concentration, and motile profiles and the Nusselt number reveals a symmetric pattern of boundary layers at various angles $\left(\alpha \right)$. Results are presented through tables, graphs, contour plots, and streamline and surface plots, covering both shear-thinning cases $(n<1.0)$ and shear-thickening cases $(n>1.0)$.
