Einstein-Weyl structures on lightlike hypersurfaces (Q386358): Difference between revisions

The paper is devoted to the study of Weyl structures on light-like hypersurfaces. The authors define the Weyl screen structure and prove a result on the model space of Weyl screen structures on the conformal light-like hypersurface. Next they consider Einstein-Weyl screen structures and give a necessary and sufficient condition for a Weyl screen structure to be Einstein-Weyl. Finally, the authors investigate an Einstein-Weyl structure in the Lorentzian space \(\mathbb R_1^{n+1}\) with the totally umbilical integrable screen distribution and describe relations between Einstein-Weyl screen structures on the conformal light-like hypersurface and the induced one on the screen foliation.
