We prove that every contact metric (κ, µ)-space admits a canonical η-Einstein Sasakian or η-Einstein paraSasakian metric. An explicit expression for the curvature tensor fields of those metrics is given and we find the values of κ and µ for which such metrics are Sasaki-Einstein and paraSasakiEinstein. Conversely, we prove that, under some natural assumptions, a K-contact or K-paracontact manifold foliated by two mutually orthogonal, totally geodesic Legendre foliations admits a contact
metric (κ, µ)-structure. Furthermore, we apply the above results to the geometry of tangent sphere bundles and we discuss some geometric properties of (κ, µ)-spaces related to the existence of EisteinWeyl
and Lorentzian Sasaki-Einstein structures.Plan Andaluz de Investigación (Junta de Andalucía)Ministerio de Educación y Cienci
