PurposeThe author considers an invariant lightlike submanifold M, whose transversal bundle tr(TM) is flat, in an indefinite Sasakian manifold M¯(c) of constant φ¯-sectional curvature c. Under some geometric conditions, the author demonstrates that c=1, that is, M¯ is a space of constant curvature 1. Moreover, M and any leaf M′ of its screen distribution S(TM) are, also, spaces of constant curvature 1.Design/methodology/approachThe author has employed the techniques developed by K. L. Duggal and A. Bejancu of reference number 7.FindingsThe author has discovered that any totally umbilic invariant ligtlike submanifold, whose transversal bundle is flat, in an indefinite Sasakian space form is, in fact, a space of constant curvature 1 (see Theorem 4.4).Originality/valueTo the best of the author’s findings, at the time of submission of this paper, the results reported are new and interesting as far as lightlike geometry is concerned.

SynopsisThis paper is a continuation of [2], where we introduced the notion of global k-spreads on manifolds. Here we show that the space of all k-spreads on a manifold has the structure of an affine space, modelled on the vector space of sections of a certain vector bundle. We give some sufficient conditions for a manifold admitting an integrable k-spread to be a space of constant curvature and answer one of the questions raised in [2].

We obtain the expressions for sectional curvature, holomorphic sectional curvature and holomorphic bisectional curvature of a GCR-lightlike submanifold of an indefinite Sasakian manifold and obtain some characterization theorems on holomorphic sectional and holomorphic bisectional curvature.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to study the geometry of screen real lightlike submanifolds of metallic semi-Riemannian manifolds. Also, the authors investigate whether these submanifolds are warped product lightlike submanifolds or not.Design/methodology/approachThe paper is design as follows: In Section 3, the authors introduce screen-real lightlike submanifold of metallic semi Riemannian manifold. In Section 4, the sufficient conditions for the radical and screen distribution of screen-real lightlike submanifolds, to be integrable and to be have totally geodesic foliation, have been established. Furthermore, the authors investigate whether these submanifolds can be written in the form of warped product lightlike submanifolds or not.FindingsThe geometry of the screen-real lightlike submanifolds has been studied. Also various results have been established. It has been proved that there does not exist any class of irrotational screen-real r-lightlike submanifold such that it can be written in the form of warped product lightlike submanifolds.Originality/valueAll results are novel and contribute to further study on lightlike submanifolds of metallic semi-Riemannian manifolds.

AbstractAfter brief introduction, we prove that a totally contact umbilical CR- lightlike submanifold is totally contact geodesic. We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for a CR-lightlike submanifold to be an anti-invariant submanifold. Finally, we characterize a contact CR-lightlike submanifold of indefinite Sasakian manifold to be a contact CR-lightlike product

In this paper, we define and study both slant lightlike submanifolds and screen slant lightlike submanifolds of an indefinite Sasakian manifold. We provide non-trivial examples and obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a slant lightlike submanifold.

We prove that the classical Lambert theorem about the elapsed time on an arc of Keplerian orbit extends without change to the Kepler problem on a space of constant curvature. We prove that the Hooke problem has a property similar to Lambert's theorem, which also extends to the spaces of constant curvature. This article is part of the theme issue ‘Topological and geometrical aspects of mass and vortex dynamics’.

The concept of quasi-generalized CR-lightlike was first introduced by the authors in [Quasi generalized CR-lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Sasakian manifolds, Arab. J. Math. 5 (2016) 87–101]. In this paper, we focus on ascreen and co-screen quasi-generalized CR-lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly [Formula: see text]-Sasakian manifold. We prove an existence theorem for minimal ascreen quasi-generalized CR-lightlike submanifolds admitting a metric connection. Classification theorems on nearly parallel and auto-parallel distributions on a co-screen quasi-generalized CR-lightlike submanifold are also given. Several examples are also constructed, where necessary, to illustrate the main ideas.

The immobility of the center of mass in spaces of constant curvature is postulated based on its definition obtained in [1]. The system of two particles which interact through a potential depending only on the distance between particles on a three-dimensional sphere is considered. The Hamilton-Jacobi equation is formulated and its solutions and trajectory equations are found. It was established that the reduced mass of the system depends on the relative distance.
