We define an almost Norden submersion (holomorphic and semi-Riemannian submersion) between almost Norden manifolds and show that, in most of the cases, the base manifold has the similar kind of structure as that of total manifold. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for almost Norden submersion to be a totally geodesic map. We also derive decomposition theorems for the total manifold of such submersions. Moreover, we study the harmonicity of almost Norden submersions between almost Norden manifolds and between Kaehler-Norden manifolds. Finally, we derive conditions for an almost Norden submersion to be a harmonic morphism.

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.

In this study, we have generalized pseudo-Finsler map by introducing the concept of semi-Riemannian map and have found pseudo-Finsler eikonal equations using pseudo-Finsler map. After that, we have obtained some sufficient theorems on pseudo-Finsler manifolds for the existence of solutions to the eikonal equation. At the same time, we have introduced a natural definition for the affine maps between pseudo-Finsler manifolds and have reached the affine solutions of them.

In this paper we study the geometry of codimension 2 screen conformal Einstein half lightiike submanifolds M of a semi-Riemannian manifold $(\={M}(c),\={g})$ of constant curvature c, with a Killing co-screen distribution on $\={M}$. The main result is a classification theorem for screen homothetic Einstein half lightlike submanifold of Lorentzian space forms.

The purpose of this paper is to study the geometry of null curves in a 6-dimensional semi-Riemannian manifold $M_q$ of index q, since the general n-dimensional cases are too complicated. We show that it is possible to construct three types of Frenet equations of null curves in $M_q$, supported by one example. We find each types of Frenet equations invariant under any causal change. And we discuss some properties of null curves in $M_q$.

Chung and et al. ([2].1991) introduced a new concept of a manifold, denoted by $^{\ast}g-SEX_n$, in Einstein's n-dimensional $^{\ast}g$-unified field theory. The manifold $^{\ast}g-SEX_n$ is a generalized n-dimensional Riemannian manifold on which the differential geometric structure is imposed by the unified field tensor $^{\ast}g^{\lambda \nu}$ through the SE-connection which is both Einstein and semi-symmetric. In this paper, they proved a necessary and sufficient condition for the unique existence of SE-connection and sufficient condition for the unique existence of SE-connection and presented a beautiful and surveyable tensorial representation of the SE-connection in terms of the tensor $^{\ast}g^{\lambda \nu}$. Recently, Chung and et al.([3],1998) obtained a concise tensorial representation of SE-curvature tensor defined by the SE-connection of $^{\ast}g-SEX_n$ and proved deveral identities involving it. This paper is a direct continuations of [3]. In this paper we derive surveyable tensorial representations of constracted curvature tensors of $^{\ast}g-SEX_n$ and prove several generalized identities involving them. In particular, the first variation of the generalized Bianchi's identity in $^{\ast}g-SEX_n$, proved in theorem (2.10a), has a great deal of useful physical applications.

In [3] and [4], Kitahara, Pak and the author obtained the conformally invariant tensor $B_0$, which is an algebraic Hermitian analogue of the Weyl conformal curvature tensor W in the Riemannian geometry, by the decomposition of the curvature tensor H of the Hermitian connection and the notion of semi-curvature-like tensors of Tanno (see[7]). In [5], the author defined a conformally invariant tensor $B_0$ on a Hermitian manifold as a modification of $B_0$. Moreover he introduced the notion of local conformal Hermitian-flatness of Hermitian manifolds and proved that the vanishing of this tensor $B_0$ together with some condition for the scalar curvatures is a necessary and sufficient condition for a Hermitian manifold to be locally conformally Hermitian-flat.

Recently, Chung and et al. ([11], 1991c) introduced a new concept of a manifold, denoted by ＊g-SE $X_{n}$ , in Einstein's n-dimensional ＊g-unified field theory. The manifold ＊g-SE $X_{n}$ is a generalized n-dimensional Riemannian manifold on which the differential geometric structure is imposed by the unified field tensor ＊ $g^{λν}$ through the SE-connection which is both Einstein and semi-symmetric. In this paper, they proved a necessary and sufficient condition for the unique existence of SE-connection and presented a beautiful and surveyable tensorial representation of the SE-connection in terms of the tensor ＊ $g^{λν}$. This paper is the first part of the following series of two papers: I. The SE-curvature tensor of ＊g-SE $X_{n}$ II. The contracted SE-curvature tensors of ＊g-SE $X_{n}$ In the present paper we investigate the properties of SE-curvature tensor of ＊g-SE $X_{n}$ , with main emphasis on the derivation of several useful generalized identities involving it. In our subsequent paper, we are concerned with contracted curvature tensors of ＊g-SE $X_{n}$ and several generalized identities involving them. In particular, we prove the first variation of the generalized Bianchi's identity in ＊g-SE $X_{n}$ , which has a great deal of useful physical applications.tions.

The main goal of the paper is the introduction of the notion of conformal hemi-slant submersions from almost contact metric manifolds onto Riemannian manifolds. It is a generalization of conformal anti-invariant submersions, conformal semi-invariant submersions and conformal slant submersions. Our main focus is conformal hemi-slant submersion from cosymplectic manifolds. We tend also study the integrability of the distributions involved in the definition of the submersions and the geometry of their leaves. Moreover, we get necessary and sufficient conditions for these submersions to be totally geodesic, and provide some representative examples of conformal hemi-slant submersions.
