Geometry of semi-transversal lightlike warped product submanifolds of indefinite Kaehler manifolds

Abstract

In this paper, we investigate warped product semi-transversal lightlike submanifolds of indefinite Kaehler manifolds. It is shown that there does not exist any warped product semi-transversal lightlike submanifold of the type [Formula: see text] in an indefinite Kaehler manifold. Moreover, a necessary and sufficient condition for an isometrically immersed semi-transversal lightlike submanifold of an indefinite Kaehler manifold to be a semi-transversal lightlike warped product of the type [Formula: see text] is obtained, in terms of the shape operator.
