We prove that there exist foliations whose leaves are the maximal integral null manifolds immersed as submanifolds of indefinite locally conformal cosymplectic manifolds. Necessary and sufficient conditions for such leaves to be screen conformal, as well as possessing integrable distributions are given. Using Newton transformations, we show that any compact ascreen null leaf with a symmetric Ricci tensor admits a totally geodesic screen distribution. Supporting examples are also obtained.

In this paper we begin the study of $L_k$-2-type hypersurfaces of a hypersphere ${\mathbb{S}}^{n+1}{\subset}{\mathbb{R}}^{n+2}$ for $k{\geq}1$ Let ${\psi}:M^3{\rightarrow}{\mathbb{S}}^4$ be an orientable $H_k$-hypersurface, which is not an open portion of a hypersphere. Then $M^3$ is of $L_k$-2-type if and only if $M^3$ is a Clifford tori ${\mathbb{S}}^1(r_1){\times}{\mathbb{S}}^2(r_2)$, $r^2_1+r^2_2=1$, for appropriate radii, or a tube $T^r(V^2)$ of appropriate constant radius r around the Veronese embedding of the real projective plane ${\mathbb{R}}P^2({\sqrt{3}})$.
