In this paper, we study totally umbilical slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite Kaehler manifolds. We prove that there do not exist totally umbilical proper slant lightlike submanifolds in indefinite Kaehler manifolds other than totally geodesic proper slant lightlike submanifolds. We also prove that there do not exist totally umbilical proper slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite Kaehler space forms. Finally, we give a characterization theorem on minimal slant lightlike submanifolds.

We introduce GCR-lightlike submanifold of a semi-Riemannian product manifold and give an example. We study geodesic GCR-lightlike submanifolds of a semi-Riemannian product manifold and obtain some necessary and sufficient conditions for a GCR-lightlike submanifold to be a GCR-lightlike product. Finally, we discuss minimal GCR-lightlike submanifolds of a semi-Riemannian product manifold.

We introduce CR, SCR and GCR-lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds and obtain their existence in indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds of constant holomorphic sectional curvature $c$ and of constant type ${\alpha}$. We also prove characterization theorems on the existence of totally umbilical and minimal GCR-lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds.

In the present study, we investigate generic lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds. After proving the existence of generic lightlike submanifolds in an indefinite generalized complex space form, a non-trivial example of this class of submanifolds is discussed. Then, we find a characterization theorem enabling the induced connection on a generic lightlike submanifold to be a metric connection. We also derive some conditions for the integrability of distributions defined on generic lightlike submanifolds. Further, we discuss the non-existence of mixed geodesic generic lightlike submanifolds in a generalized complex space form. Finally, we investigate totally umbilical generic lightlike submanifolds and minimal generic lightlike submanifolds of an indefinite nearly Kaehler manifold.

In this paper, we study half lightlike submanifolds M of an indefinite cosymplectic manifold $\bar{M}$, whose structure vector field is not tangent to M. First, we construct two types of such half lightlike submanifolds, named by transversal and normal half lightlike submanifolds. Next, we characterize the lightlike geometries of such two types half lightlike submanifolds.

In the present paper, we introduce the study of slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds. After proving some geometric results for the existence of slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds, we give a non-trivial example of this class of lightlike submanifolds. Then, we derive some conditions for the integrability of the distributions associated with slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds. Consequently, we study totally umbilical slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds. Subsequently, we investigate minimal slant lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds.

We prove the non-existence of warped product GCR-lightlike submanifolds of the type K_⊥ × _λ K_T such that K_T is a holomorphic submanifold and K_⊥ is a totally real submanifold in an indefinite Kaehler manifold $\tilde{K}$. Further, the existence of GCR-lightlike warped product submanifolds of the type K_T × _λ K_⊥ is obtained by establishing a characterization theorem in terms of the shape operator and the warping function in an indefinite Kaehler manifold. Consequently, we find some necessary and sufficient conditions for an isometrically immersed GCR-lightlike submanifold in an indefinite Kaehler manifold to be a GCR-lightlike warped product, in terms of the canonical structures f and ω. Moreover, we also derive a geometric estimate for the second fundamental form of GCR-lightlike warped product submanifolds, in terms of the Hessian of the warping function λ.

We study the geometry of screen conformal half lightlike submanifolds of a semi-Riemannian manifod. The main result is a classification theorem for screen conformal half lightlike submanifolds of a semi-Riemannian space form with a Killing co-screen distribution.
