This note provides a study of lightlike hypersurfaces of a generalized Robertson-Walker(GRW) space-time with a certain screen distribution, which are integrable and have good properties. Focus is to investigate geometric features from the relation of the second fundamental forms between lightlike hypersurfaces and leaves of the integrable screen distribution. Also, we shall apply those results on lightlike hypersurfaces of a GRW space-time to lightlike hypersurfaces of a Robertson-Walker(RW) space-time.

We study a lightlike hypersurface M of an indefinite nearly trans-Sasakian manifold ${\bar{M}}$ with an (ℓ, m)-type connection such that the structure vector field ζ of ${\bar{M}}$ is tangent to M. In particular, we focus on such lightlike hypersurfaces M for which the structure tensor field F is either recurrent or Lie recurrent, or such that M itself is totally umbilical or screen totally umbilical.

In the present paper, screen isotropic leaves on lightlike hypersurfaces of a Lorentzian manifold are introduced and studied which are inspired by the definition of isotropic immersions in the Riemannian context. Some examples of such leaves are mentioned. Furthermore, some relations involving curvature invariants are obtained.

In this paper, we investigate horizontal lightlike hypersurfaces of Robertson-Walker spacetimes. Some results involving the unique existence of the screen distribution and the symmetry of the induced Ricci curvature tensor of horizontal lightlike hypersurfaces are presented. We also obtain some properties concerning the symmetry and the parallelism of the second fundamental forms of such lightlike hypersurfaces.

In this paper, we study three types of lightlike hypersurfaces, which are called recurrent, Lie recurrent and Hopf lightlike hypersurfaces, of an indefinite Kaehler manifold with a semi-symmetric non-metric connection. We provide several new results on such three types of lightlike hypersurfaces of an indefinite Kaehler manifold or an indefinite complex space form, with a semi-symmetric non-metric connection.

In this paper, we study lightlike hypersurfaces M of semi-Riemannian manifolds $\bar{M}$ of quasi-constant curvatures. Our main result is a characterization theorem for screen homothetic Einstein lightlike hypersurfaces of a Lorentzian manifold of quasi-constant curvature subject such that its curvature vector field ${\zeta}$ is tangent to M.

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

In this paper, we study the geometry lightlike hypersurfaces (M, $g$, S(TM)) of a semi-Riemannian manifold ($\tilde{M}$, $\tilde{g}$) of quasi-constant curvature subject to the conditions: (1) The curvature vector field of $\tilde{M}$ is tangent to M, and (2) the screen distribution S(TM) is either totally geodesic in M or totally umbilical in $\tilde{M}$.

We define a new connection on semi-Riemannian manifolds, which is a non-symmetric and non-metric connection. We say that this connection is an (${\ell}$, m)-type connection. Semi-symmetric non-metric connection and non-metric ${\phi}$-symmetric connection are two important examples of this connection such that (${\ell}$, m) = (1, 0) and (${\ell}$, m) = (0, 1), respectively. In this paper, we study lightlike hypersurfaces of an indefinite trans-Sasakian manifold with an (${\ell}$, m)-type connection.

We define a new connection on semi-Riemannian manifolds, which is called a symmetric connection of type (${\ell}$, m). Semi-symmetric connection and quarter-symmetric connection are two examples of this connection such that $({\ell},m)=(1,0)$ and $({\ell},m)=(0,1)$ respectively. In this paper, we study lightlike hypersurfaces of an indefinite Kaehler manifold endowed with a symmetric metric connection of type (${\ell}$, m).
