The curvature of half lightlike submanifolds of a semi-Riemannian manifold of quasi-constant curvature. (English) Zbl 1271.53019

Summary: We study half light-like submanifolds \(M\) of semi-Riemannian manifolds \(\widetilde M\) of quasi-constant curvatures. The main result is a characterization theorem for screen homothetic Einstein half light-like submanifolds of a Lorentzian manifold of quasi-constant curvature subject to the conditions; (1) the curvature vector field of \(\widetilde M\) is tangent to \(M\), and (2) the co-screen distribution is a conformal Killing one.
