We introduce CR, SCR and GCR-lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds and obtain their existence in indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds of constant holomorphic sectional curvature $c$ and of constant type ${\alpha}$. We also prove characterization theorems on the existence of totally umbilical and minimal GCR-lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds.

In the present paper, we introduce the study of slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds. After proving some geometric results for the existence of slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds, we give a non-trivial example of this class of lightlike submanifolds. Then, we derive some conditions for the integrability of the distributions associated with slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds. Consequently, we study totally umbilical slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds. Subsequently, we investigate minimal slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds.

In this paper, we study totally umbilical slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite Kaehler manifolds. We prove that there do not exist totally umbilical proper slant lightlike submanifolds in indefinite Kaehler manifolds other than totally geodesic proper slant lightlike submanifolds. We also prove that there do not exist totally umbilical proper slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite Kaehler space forms. Finally, we give a characterization theorem on minimal slant lightlike submanifolds.

We study totally umbilical real half lightlike submanifolds of indefinite Kaehler manifolds with a quarter-symmetric metric connection. We obtain some conditions for a real half lightlike submanifold of an indefinite Kaehler manifold with a quarter-symmetric metric connection to be a product manifold. We derive the expression for induced Ricci type tensor 𝓡^(0,2) and also obtain conditions for 𝓡^(0,2) to be symmetric.

We prove the non-existence of warped product GCR-lightlike submanifolds of the type K_⊥ × _λ K_T such that K_T is a holomorphic submanifold and K_⊥ is a totally real submanifold in an indefinite Kaehler manifold $\tilde{K}$. Further, the existence of GCR-lightlike warped product submanifolds of the type K_T × _λ K_⊥ is obtained by establishing a characterization theorem in terms of the shape operator and the warping function in an indefinite Kaehler manifold. Consequently, we find some necessary and sufficient conditions for an isometrically immersed GCR-lightlike submanifold in an indefinite Kaehler manifold to be a GCR-lightlike warped product, in terms of the canonical structures f and ω. Moreover, we also derive a geometric estimate for the second fundamental form of GCR-lightlike warped product submanifolds, in terms of the Hessian of the warping function λ.

We study lightlike hypersurfaces M of an indefinite Kaehler manifold $\bar{M}$ of quasi-constant curvature subject to the condition that the curvature vector field of $\bar{M}$ belongs to the screen distribution S(TM). We provide several new results on such lightlike hypersurfaces M.

The notion of a non-metric ${\phi}$-symmetric connection on semi-Riemannian manifolds was introduced by Jin [6, 7]. The object of study in this paper is generic lightlike submanifolds of an indefinite Kaehler manifold ${\bar{M}}$ with a non-metric ${\phi}$-symmetric connection. First, we provide several new results for such generic lightlike submanifolds. Next, we investigate generic lightlike submanifolds of an indefinite complex space form ${\bar{M}}(c)$ with a non-metric ${\phi}$-symmetric connection.

In this paper, we study two types 1-lightlike submanifolds M, so called lightlike hypersurface and half lightlike submanifold, of an indefinite Kaehler manifold $\bar{M}$ admitting non-metric ${\pi}$-connection. We prove that there exist no such two types 1-lightlike submanifolds of an indefinite Kaehler manifold $\bar{M}$ admitting non-metric ${\pi}$-connections.

We define a new connection on semi-Riemannian manifolds, which is called a symmetric connection of type (${\ell}$, m). Semi-symmetric connection and quarter-symmetric connection are two examples of this connection such that $({\ell},m)=(1,0)$ and $({\ell},m)=(0,1)$ respectively. In this paper, we study lightlike hypersurfaces of an indefinite Kaehler manifold endowed with a symmetric metric connection of type (${\ell}$, m).
