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.

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.

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.

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.

This is a review paper of up-to-date research done on the existence of unique null curves, screen distributions, Levi-Civita connection, symmetric Ricci tensor, and scalar curvature for a large variety of lightlike submanifolds of semi-Riemannian (in particular, Lorentzian) manifolds, supported by examples and an extensive bibliography. We also propose some open problems.

Our aim in this paper is to obtain concircular vector fields (CVFs) on the Lorentzian manifold of Bianchi type-I spacetimes. For this purpose, two different sets of coupled partial differential equations comprising ten equations each are obtained. The first ten equations, known as conformal Killing equations are solved completely and components of conformal Killing vector fields (CKVFs) are obtained in different possible cases. These CKVFs are then substituted into second set of ten differential equations to obtain CVFs. It comes out that Bianchi type-I spacetimes admit four-, five-, six-, seven- or 15-dimensional CVFs for particular choices of the metric functions. In many cases, the CKVFs of a particular metric are same as CVFs while there exists few cases where proper CKVFs are not CVFs.

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.

Conformal Killing forms are a natural generalization of conformal Killing vector fields. These forms have applications in physics related to hidden symmetries, conserved quantities, symmetry operators, or separation of variables. In this paper, we prove two vanishing theorems of conformal Killing forms on a space-like totally umbilical submanifold of a Lorentzian manifold. Finally, we show an application of these results to electrodynamics in the General Relativity Theory.

In the present paper, we study nontotally geodesic minimal ascreen null hypersurface, $M$, of a Lorentzian concircular structure $(LCS)$-space form of constant curvature $0$ or $1$. We prove that; if the Ricci tensor of $M$ is parallel with respect to any leaf of its screen distribution, then $M$ is isometric to a product of a null curve and spheres.
