  • We study low type submanifolds in pseudo-Euclidean space which is especially of 2-type pseudo-umbilical. We also determine full null 2-type surfaces with parallel mean curvature vector in 4-dimensional Minkowski space-time.

  • In this paper, we investigate some properties of Jacobi fields and conjugate points in a complete Riemannian manifold M. Also we get a necessary and sufficient condition about a geodesic without conjugate points in the manifold with non-negative curvature.

  • The purpose of this paper is to study the geometry of null curves in a semi-Riemannian manifold (M, g) of index 2. We show that it is possible to construct new Frenet equations of two types of null curves in M.

  • In this paper, when N is a compact Riemannian manifold, we discuss the method of using warped products to construct timelike or null future (or past) complete Lorentzian metrics on $M=(-{\infty},{\;}\infty){\;}{\times}f^N$ with specific scalar curvatures.
