Abstract

In this paper, we introduce and study the geometry of half lightlike submanifold $M$ of a semi-Riemannian manifold $\overline{M}$ satisfying that the shape operator of screen transversal bundle is conformal to the shape operator of lightlike transversal bundle of $M$. Using this geometric condition we obtain some results to characterize the unique existence of screen distribution of $M$, also, we present some sufficient conditions for the induced Ricci curvature tensor of $M$ to be symmetric.
