    In this paper, the authors study some geometric properties of lightlike hypersurfaces \(V\) [see: \textit{K. L. Duggal} and \textit{A. Bejancu}, ``Lightlike submanifolds of Semi-Riemannian manifolds and applications'', Kluwer Academic Publishers, Dordrecht (1996; Zbl 0848.53001)] of \(n\)-dimensional manifolds, endowed with a conformal structure. They investigate the integrability conditions of the two non-degenerate screen distributions and construct an invariant normalization and an invariant affine connection for \(V\).
