Abstract


The aim of the present paper is to introduce a special type of connection on a Riemannian manifold. At first we prove the existence of such a connection and then we study some properties of curvature tensor and Weyl projective curvature tensor with respect to special type of semi-symmetric non-metric connection. Finally, a non-trivial example of this connection have been constructed.
