We study lightlike hypersurfaces of indefinite Kenmotsu manifolds. The purpose of this paper is to prove that there do not exist totally geodesic screen distributions on semi-symmetric lightlike hypersurfaces of indefinite Kenmotsu manifolds with flat transversal connection.

In this paper, we study the curvature of locally symmetric or semi-symmetric half lightlike submanifolds M of an indefinite Kenmotsu manifold $\bar{M}$, whose structure vector field is tangent to M. After that, we study the existence of the totally geodesic screen distribution of half lightlike submanifolds of indefinite Kenmotsu manifolds with parallel co-screen distribution subject to the conditions: (1) M is locally symmetric, or (2) the lightlike transversal connection is flat.
