On lightlike submanifolds of a GRW space-time

Tae Ho Kang

University of Ulsan

Abstract

This paper provides a study of lightlike submanifolds of a generalized Robertson-Walker (GRW) space-time. In particular, we investigate lightlike submanifolds with curvature invariance, parallel second fundamental forms, totally umbilical second fundamental forms, null sectional curvatures and null Ricci curvatures, respectively.

Keywords: lightlike submanifold, spacelike slice, generalized Robertson-Walker space-time, curvature invariance, totally umbilical second fundamental form, null sectional curvature, null Ricci curvature
