  • We study nondegenerate immersions of Riemannian manifolds of constant sectional curvatures into Lorentzian manifolds of the same constant sectional curvatures with flat normal bundles. We also give a method to produce such immersions using the so-called Grassmannian system. .

  • This paper provides a study of lightlike submanifolds of a generalized Robertson-Walker (GRW) space-time. In particular, we investigate lightlike submanifolds with curvature invariance, parallel second fundamental forms, totally umbilical second fundamental forms, null sectional curvatures and null Ricci curvatures, respectively.

  • M be an ($n\geq3$)-dimensional compact connected and oriented Riemannian manifold isometrically immersed on an (n + 2)-dimensional sphere $S^{n+2}$(c). If all sectional curvatures of M are not less than a positive constant c, show that M is a real homology sphere.

  • For each connected and simply connected three-dimensional non-unimodular Lie group, we classify the left invariant Lorentzian metrics up to automorphism, and study the extent to which curvature can be altered by a change of metric. Thereby we obtain the Ricci operator, the scalar curvature, and the sectional curvatures as functions of left invariant Lorentzian metrics on each of these groups. Our study is a continuation and extension of the previous studies done in [3] for Riemannian metrics and in [1] for Lorentzian metrics on unimodular Lie groups.

  • Let $\Omega$ be a bounded pseudoconvex domain in$C^{n}$ with smooth defining function r and let$z_0\; {\in}\; b{\Omega}$ be a point of finite type. We also assume that $\Omega$ is convex in a neighborhood of $z_0$. Then we prove that all the holomorphic sectional curvatures of the Bergman metric of $\Omega$ are bounded below by a negative constant near $z_0$.
