The purpose of this paper is to give a necessary and sufficient condition for a smooth manifold to admit a Lorentzian metric. As an application of this result, on Lorentzian manifolds we have shown that the existence of a 1-dimensional distribution is equivalent to the existence of a non-vanishing vector field.

In this paper, we consider nonconstant warping functions on Einstein Lorentzian warped product manifolds $M=B{\times}_{f^2}F$ with an 1-dimensional base B which has a negative definite metric. As the results, we discuss that on M the resulting Einstein Lorentzian warped product metric is a future (or past) geodesically complete one outside a compact set.

In this paper we study (${\epsilon}$)-Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifolds and show its existence by an example. Some basic results regarding such manifolds have been deduced. Finally, we study conformally flat and Weyl-semisymmetric (${\epsilon}$)-Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifolds.

In this study we consider ${\varphi}$-conformally flat, ${\varphi}$-conharmonically flat, ${\varphi}$-projectively at and ${\varphi}$-concircularly flat Lorentzian ${\alpha}$-Sasakian manifolds. In all cases, we get the manifold will be an ${\eta}$-Einstein manifold.

The notion of quasi-Einstein manifolds arose during the study of exact solutions of the Einstein field equations as well as during considerations of quasi-umbilical hypersurfaces. For instance, the Robertson-Walker spacetimes are quasi-Einstein manifolds. The object of the present paper is to study Lorentzian quasi-Einstein manifolds. Some basic geometric properties of such a manifold are obtained. The applications of Lorentzian quasi-Einstein manifolds to the general relativity and cosmology are investigated. Theories of gravitational collapse and models of Supernova explosions [5] are based on a relativistic fluid model for the star. In the theories of galaxy formation, relativistic fluid models have been used in order to describe the evolution of perturbations of the baryon and radiation components of the cosmic medium [32]. Theories of the structure and stability of neutron stars assume that the medium can be treated as a relativistic perfectly conducting magneto fluid. Theories of relativistic stars (which would be models for supermassive stars) are also based on relativistic fluid models. The problem of accretion onto a neutron star or a black hole is usually set in the framework of relativistic fluid models. Among others it is shown that a quasi-Einstein spacetime represents perfect fluid spacetime model in cosmology and consequently such a spacetime determines the final phase in the evolution of the universe. Finally the existence of such manifolds is ensured by several examples constructed from various well known geometric structures.

In this parper, we considered the uniqueness of positive time-solution to equation ${\Box}_g$u(t,$\chi$) - $c_n$u(t,$\chi$) + $c_n$u(t,$\chi$)$^[\frac{n+3}{n-3}]$ = 0, where $c_n$ = $\frac{n-1}{4n}$ and ${\Box}_g$ is the d'Alembertian for a Lorentzian warped manifold M = {a,$\infty$] $\times_f$ N.

A Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold M$(\varphi, \zeta, \eta, g)$ (abr. LPS-manifold) has been defined and studied in [9] and [10]. On the other hand, para-Sasakian (abr. PS)-manifolds are special semi-cosympletic manifolds (in the sense of [2]), that is, they are endowed with an almost cosympletic 2-form $\Omega$ such that $d^{2\eta}\Omega = \psi(d^\omega$ denotes the cohomological operator [6]), where the 3-form $\psi$ is the associated Lefebvre form of $\Omega$ ([8]). If $\eta$ is exact, $\psi$ is a $d^{2\eta}$-exact form, the manifold M is called an exact Ps-manifold. Clearly, any LPS-manifold is endowed with a semi-cosymplectic structure (abr. SC-structure).
