Let M be a properly immersed timelike hypersurface of $\overline{M}$. If M is a diagonal type, M satisfies the generic condition under the certain conditions of the eigenvalues of the shape operator. Moreover, applying them to Raychaudhuri equation, we can show that M satisfies the generic condition. Thus, by these results, we establish the singularity theorem for M in $\overline{M}$.

We calculate volume ratio of a hypersurface orthogonal to a timelike geodesic relative to that of a hypersurface in the FLRW space-time.

In this note, we apply a maximum principle related to volume growth of a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold, which was recently obtained by Alías, Caminha and do Nascimento in [4], to establish new uniqueness and nonexistence results concerning maximal spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in a generalized Robertson-Walker (GRW) spacetime obeying the timelike convergence condition. A study of entire solutions for the maximal hypersurface equation in GRW spacetimes is also made and, in particular, a new Calabi-Bernstein type result is presented.

The authors compute the Ricci curvature of the GRW space-time to obtain two conditions for the conjugate points which appear as the Timelike Convergence Condition(TCG) and the Jacobi inequality. Moreover, under such two conditions, we obtain a lower bound of the length of a unit timelike geodesic for focal points emanating form the immersed spacelike hypersurface, the graph over the fiber in the GRW space-time.

The ordinary mean curvature vector field 𝗛 on a submanifold M of a space form is said to be proper if it satisfies equality Δ𝗛 = a𝗛 for a constant real number a. It is proven that every hypersurface of an Riemannian space form with proper mean curvature vector field has constant mean curvature. In this manuscript, we study the Lorentzian hypersurfaces with proper second mean curvature vector field of four dimensional Lorentzian space forms. We show that the scalar curvature of such a hypersurface has to be constant. In addition, as a classification result, we show that each Lorentzian hypersurface of a Lorentzian 4-space form with proper second mean curvature vector field is C-biharmonic, C-1-type or C-null-2-type. Also, we prove that every 𝗛₂-proper Lorentzian hypersurface with constant ordinary mean curvature in a Lorentz 4-space form is 1-minimal.

In this paper we address focal points and treat manifolds (M, g) whose Lorentzian metric tensors g have a spacelike $C^{0}$-hypersurface $\Sigma$ [10]. We apply Jacobi fields for such manifolds, and check the local length maximizing properties of $C^1$-geodesics. The condition of maximality of timelike curves(geodesics) passing $C^{0}$-hypersurface is studied.ied.
