A totally umbilic submanifold of a pseudo-Riemanian manifold is a submanifold whose first fundamental form and second fundamental form are proportiona. An ordinary hypersphere $S^n(r)$ of an affine (n + 1)-space of the Euclidean space $E^m$ is the best known example of totally umbilic submanifolds of $E^m$.

This paper provides a study of lightlike submanifolds of a generalized Robertson-Walker (GRW) space-time. In particular, we investigate lightlike submanifolds with curvature invariance, parallel second fundamental forms, totally umbilical second fundamental forms, null sectional curvatures and null Ricci curvatures, respectively.

Let P be a spacelike (n-2)-dimensional submanifold of an n-dimensional Lorentz manifold M and let$\sigma$ be a P-normal null geodesic with Ric($\sigma',\sigma'$)$\geq$m, for the any given nonpositive constant m. We establish a sufficient condition such that there is a focal point of P along $\sigma$.

Let M be a connected n-dimensional submanifold of a Euclidean space $E^{n+k}$ equipped with the induced metric and ${\Delta}$ its Laplacian. If the position vector x of M is decomposed as a sum of three vectors $x=x_1+x_2+x_0$ where two vectors $x_1$ and $x_2$ are non-constant eigenvectors of the Laplacian, i.e., ${\Delta}x_i={\lambda}_ix_i$, i = 1, 2 (${\lambda}_i{\in}R$) and $x_0$ is a constant vector, then, M is called a 2-type submanifold. In this paper we proved that a connected 2-type hypersurface M in $E^{n+1}$ whose postion vector x satisfies ${\langle}{\Delta}x,x-x_0{\rangle}=c$ for a constant c, where ${\langle}$, ${\rangle}$ is the usual inner product in $E^{n+1}$, is of null 2-type and has constant mean curvature and scalar curvature.

Let $r\;{\geq}\;q$. We get the stability of the estimates of the $\bar{\partial}$-Neumann problem for (p, r)-forms on a weakly q-convex complex submanifold. As a by-product of the stability of the $\bar{\partial}$-estimates, we get the Mergelyan approximation property for (p, r)-forms on a weakly q-convex complex submanifold which satisfies property (P).

We prove that there exist foliations whose leaves are the maximal integral null manifolds immersed as submanifolds of indefinite locally conformal cosymplectic manifolds. Necessary and sufficient conditions for such leaves to be screen conformal, as well as possessing integrable distributions are given. Using Newton transformations, we show that any compact ascreen null leaf with a symmetric Ricci tensor admits a totally geodesic screen distribution. Supporting examples are also obtained.

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.
