In this paper, we prove a classification theorem for Einstein lightlike hypersurfaces M of a Lorentzian space form ($\bar{M}$(c), $\bar{g}$) with a semi-symmetric metric connection subject such that the second fundamental forms of M and its screen distribution S(TM) are conformally related by some non-zero constant.

For each connected and simply connected three-dimensional non-unimodular Lie group, we classify the left invariant Lorentzian metrics up to automorphism, and study the extent to which curvature can be altered by a change of metric. Thereby we obtain the Ricci operator, the scalar curvature, and the sectional curvatures as functions of left invariant Lorentzian metrics on each of these groups. Our study is a continuation and extension of the previous studies done in [3] for Riemannian metrics and in [1] for Lorentzian metrics on unimodular Lie groups.

The aim of the present work is to study the properties of three-dimensional Lorentzian para-Kenmotsu manifolds equipped with a Yamabe soliton. It is proved that every three-dimensional Lorentzian para-Kenmotsu manifold is Ricci semi-symmetric if and only if it is Einstein. Also, if the metric of a three-dimensional semi-symmetric Lorentzian para-Kenmotsu manifold is a Yamabe soliton, then the soliton is shrinking and the flow vector field is Killing. We also study the properties of three-dimensional Ricci symmetric and 𝜂-parallel Lorentzian para-Kenmotsu manifolds with Yamabe solitons. Finally, we give a non-trivial example of three-dimensional Lorentzian para-Kenmotsu manifold.

The present study initially identify the generalized symmetric connections of type (α, β), which can be regarded as more generalized forms of quarter and semi-symmetric connections. The quarter and semi-symmetric connections are obtained respectively when (α, β) = (1, 0) and (α, β) = (0, 1). Taking that into account, a new generalized symmetric metric connection is attained on Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifolds. In compliance with this connection, some results are obtained through calculation of tensors belonging to Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold involving curvature tensor, Ricci tensor and Ricci semi-symmetric manifolds. Finally, we consider CR-submanifolds admitting a generalized symmetric metric connection and prove many interesting results.

The Bishop and Bishop-Gromov volume comparisons with the Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor in a metric measure space are studied by the comparisons of the Jacobi differential equations in a Riemannian and Lorentzian manifold.

Special examples of harmonic manifolds that are not symmetric, proving that the conjecture posed by Lichnerowicz fails in the non-compact case have been intensively studied. We completely classify homogeneous structures on Damek-Ricci spaces equipped with the left invariant metric.

In this paper, we study screen quasi-conformal irrotational half lightlike submanifolds M of a semi-Riemannian space form $\tilde{M}(c)$ admitting a semi-symmetric non-metric connection, whose structure vector field ${\zeta}$ is tangent to M. The main result is a classification theorem for such Einstein half lightlike submanifolds of a Lorentzian space form admitting a semi-symmetric non-metric connection.

We study Einstein lightlike hypersurfaces M of a Lorentzian space form $\tilde{M}(c)$ admitting a semi-symmetric non-metric connection subject to the conditions; (1) M is screen conformal and (2) the structure vector field ${\zeta}$ of $\tilde{M}$ belongs to the screen distribution S(TM). The main result is a characterization theorem for such a lightlike hypersurface.

In this work we consider the Sol₃ Lie group, equipped with the left-invariant metric, Lorentzian or Riemannian. We determine Killing vector fields and affine vectors fields. Also we obtain a full classification of Ricci, curvature and matter collineations.

In this article, we deal with the biharmonicity of a vector field X viewed as a map from a pseudo-Riemannian manifold (M, g) into its tangent bundle TM endowed with the Sasaki metric g_S. Precisely, we characterize those vector fields which are biharmonic maps, and find the relationship between them and biharmonic vector fields. Afterwards, we study the biharmonicity of left-invariant vector fields on the three dimensional Heisenberg group endowed with a left-invariant Lorentzian metric. Finally, we give examples of vector fields which are proper biharmonic maps on the Gödel universe.
