We study some properties of a half-lightlike submanifoldM, of a semi-Riemannian manifold, whose shape operator is conformal to the shape operator of its screen distribution. We show that any screen distributionS(TM)ofMis integrable and the geometry ofMhas a close relation with the nondegenerate geometry of a leaf ofS(TM). We prove some results on symmetric induced Ricci tensor and null sectional curvature of this class.

In this paper, we introduce and study the geometry of half lightlike submanifold $M$ of a semi-Riemannian manifold $\overline{M}$ satisfying that the shape operator of screen transversal bundle is conformal to the shape operator of lightlike transversal bundle of $M$. Using this geometric condition we obtain some results to characterize the unique existence of screen distribution of $M$, also, we present some sufficient conditions for the induced Ricci curvature tensor of $M$ to be symmetric.

We study lightlike submanifolds of indefinite statistical manifolds. Contrary to the classical theory of submanifolds of statistical manifolds, lightlike submanifolds of indefinite statistical manifolds need not to be statistical submanifold. Therefore, we obtain some conditions for a lightlike submanifold of indefinite statistical manifolds to be a lightlike statistical submanifold. We derive the expression of statistical sectional curvature and finally obtain some conditions for the induced statistical Ricci tensor on a lightlike submanifold of indefinite statistical manifolds to be symmetric.

The present paper deals with the study of minimal lightlike submanifolds. We investigate a class of lightlike submanifolds namely, generic lightlike submanifolds under the minimal condition. We give one nontrivial example for minimal generic lightlike submanifolds and derive some characterization theorems for a generic lightlike submanifold to be a minimal lightlike submanifold. We also establish some conditions for the distributions for generic lightlike submanifolds to be minimal. We further derive the expressions for sectional curvature, null sectional curvature and induced Ricci tensor for a minimal lightlike submanifold. Finally, we prove that for a minimal lightlike submanifold, the null sectional curvature vanishes and the induced Ricci tensor is symmetric.

In this paper, the co-screen conformal 1-lightlike submanifolds of a Lorentzian manifoldare introduced as a generalization of co-screen locally half-lightlike submanifolds in(Wang,  Wang {\&} Liu, 2013; Wang {\&} Liu, 2013) and two examples are given whichone is co-screen locally conformal andthe other is not. Some results are obtained on these submanifolds whichthe co-screen distribution is conformal Killing on the ambient manifold.The induced Ricci tensor of  co-screen conformal 1-lightlike submanifolds isinvestigated.

AbstractWe initially obtain various relations and then establish necessary and sufficient condition for the integrability of screen distribution of a lightlike submanifold. We also establish necessary and sufficient condition for a lightlike submanifold to be totally geodesic.

We introduce the concept of (ε)-almost paracontact manifolds, and in particular, of (ε)-para-Sasakian manifolds. Several examples are presented. Some typical identities for curvature tensor and Ricci tensor of (ε)-para Sasakian manifolds are obtained. We prove that if a semi-Riemannian manifold is one of flat, proper recurrent or proper Ricci-recurrent, then it cannot admit an (ε)-para Sasakian structure. We show that, for an (ε)-para Sasakian manifold, the conditions of being symmetric, semi-symmetric, or of constant sectional curvature are all identical. It is shown that a symmetric spacelike (resp., timelike) (ε)-para Sasakian manifoldMnis locally isometric to a pseudohyperbolic spaceHνn(1)(resp., pseudosphereSνn(1)). At last, it is proved that for an (ε)-para Sasakian manifold the conditions of being Ricci-semi-symmetric, Ricci-symmetric, and Einstein are all identical.

We study radical screen transversal ([Formula: see text])-lightlike submanifolds of an indefinite Kaehler manifold admitting a quarter-symmetric non-metric connection and obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for the screen distribution of a radical [Formula: see text]-lightlike submanifold to be integrable. We also study totally umbilical radical [Formula: see text]-lightlike submanifolds and obtain some characterization theorems for a radical [Formula: see text]-lightlike submanifold to be a lightlike product manifold. Finally, we establish some results regarding the vanishes of null sectional curvature.

SynopsisSuppose that a space form is immersed into another Riemannian manifold as a totally umbilical hypersurface with constant mean curvature. Then, in the ambient manifold, the lengthof the curvature tensor, that of the Ricci tensor and the scalar curvature must satisfy an inequality. In this paper the authors proved the inequality. As applications of the inequality, some immersibility problems are investigated. For example, it is proved that if a space form is immersed in an Einstein manifold as a totally umbilical hypersurface, then the Einstein manifold has constant sectional curvature along the hypersurface. Moreover, it is proved that a space form cannot be immersed into some Kaehlerian manifolds as a totally umbilical hypersurface with constant mean curvature.

We obtain the expressions for sectional curvature, holomorphic sectional curvature, and holomorphic bisectional curvature of aGCR-lightlike submanifold of an indefinite Kaehler manifold. We discuss the boundedness of holomorphic sectional curvature ofGCR-lightlike submanifolds of an indefinite complex space form. We establish a condition for aGCR-lightlike submanifold of an indefinite complex space form to be null holomorphically flat. We also obtain some characterization theorems for holomorphic sectional and holomorphic bisectional curvature.

We study the geometry of half lightlike submanifolds (M,g,S(TM), S(TM?)) of a semi-Riemannian manifold (M~,g~) of quasi-constant curvature subject to the following conditions; (1) the curvature vector field ? of M~ is tangent to M, (2) the screen distribution S(TM) of M is either totally geodesic or totally umbilical in M, and (3) the co-screen distribution S(TM?) of M is a conformal Killing distribution.
