Screen conformal half-lightlike submanifolds (Q1777888)

Summary: We study some properties of a half-lightlike submanifold \(M\), of a semi-Riemannian manifold, whose shape operator is conformal to the shape operator of its screen distribution. We show that any screen distribution \(S(TM)\) of \(M\) is integrable and the geometry of \(M\) has a close relation with the nondegenerate geometry of a leaf of \(S(TM)\). We prove some results on symmetric induced Ricci tensor and null sectional curvature of this class.
