Screen conformal Einstein lightlike hypersurfaces of a Lorentzian space form

Dae Ho Jin

Abstract

In this paper, we study the geometry of lightlike hypersurfaces of a semi-Riemannian manifold. We prove a classification theorem for Einstein lightlike hypersurfaces $M$ of a Lorentzian space form subject such that the second fundamental forms of $M$ and its screen distribution $S(TM)$ are conformally related by some non-vanishing smooth function.

Keywords: Einstein lightlike hypersurfaces, screen conformal, Lorentzian space forms
