Concurrent vector fields lying on lightlike hypersurfaces of a Lorentzian manifold are investigated. Obtained results dealing with concurrent vector fields are discussed for totally umbilical lightlike hypersurfaces and totally geodesic lightlike hypersurfaces. Furthermore, Ricci soliton lightlike hypersurfaces admitting concurrent vector fields are studied and some characterizations for this frame of hypersurfaces are obtained.

AbstractLightlike hypersurfaces in semi-Riemannian manifolds admitting concircular vector fields are investigated. We prove that such hypersurfaces are generally products of lightlike curves and warped product manifolds. In special cases, we show that these hypersurfaces are totally geodesic or totally screen geodesic provided such concircular fields belong to their normal or transversal bundles. A number of examples are furnished, where possible, to illustrate the main concepts.

Fix ξ a unitary vector field on a Riemannian manifold M and γ a non-geodesic Frenet curve on M satisfying the Rytov law of polarization optics. We prove in these conditions that γ is a Legendre curve for ξ if and only if the γ-Fermi–Walker covariant derivative of ξ vanishes. The cases when γ is circle or helix as well as ξ is (conformal) Killing vector filed or potential vector field of a Ricci soliton are analyzed and an example involving a three-dimensional warped metric is provided. We discuss also K-(para)contact, particularly (para)Sasakian, manifolds and hypersurfaces in complex space forms.

We determine and describe all the Ricci solitons within a very large class of Siklos metrics. As an application, the Ricci soliton equation is completely solved for several classes of Siklos metrics admitting additional Killing vector fields (in particular, for several homogeneous ones).

We study the problem of lightlike hypersurface immersed into Robertson-Walker (RW) spacetimes in this paper, where the screen bundle of the hypersurface has constant higher order mean curvature. We consider the following question: under what conditions is the compact lightlike hypersurface totally umbilical? Our approach is based on the relationship between the lightlike hypersurface with its screen bundle and the Minkowski formulae for the screen bundle.

A Ricci soliton (M, g, v, λ) on a Riemannian manifold (M, g) is said to have concurrent potential field if its potential field v is a concurrent vector field. Ricci solitons arisen from concurrent vector fields on Riemannian manifolds were studied recently in [Ricci solitons and concurrent vector fields, preprint (2014), arXiv:1407.2790]. The most important concurrent vector field is the position vector field on Euclidean submanifolds. In this paper we completely classify Ricci solitons on Euclidean hypersurfaces arisen from the position vector field of the hypersurfaces.

We introduce the notion of generalised 3-Sasakian structure on a manifold and show that a totally umbilical, but not totally geodesic, proper QR-submanifold of a quaternion Kaehlerian manifold is an extrinsic sphere and inherits such a structure.
