In this paper, we study the geometry lightlike hypersurfaces (M, $g$, S(TM)) of a semi-Riemannian manifold ($\tilde{M}$, $\tilde{g}$) of quasi-constant curvature subject to the conditions: (1) The curvature vector field of $\tilde{M}$ is tangent to M, and (2) the screen distribution S(TM) is either totally geodesic in M or totally umbilical in $\tilde{M}$.

This note provides a study of lightlike hypersurfaces of a generalized Robertson-Walker(GRW) space-time with a certain screen distribution, which are integrable and have good properties. Focus is to investigate geometric features from the relation of the second fundamental forms between lightlike hypersurfaces and leaves of the integrable screen distribution. Also, we shall apply those results on lightlike hypersurfaces of a GRW space-time to lightlike hypersurfaces of a Robertson-Walker(RW) space-time.

The main purpose of this paper is to study the lightlike hypersurface (M, $\overline{g}$) of cosymplectic space form $\overline{M}$(c). In this paper, we computed the Gauss and Codazzi formulae of (M, $\overline{g}$) of cosymplectic manifold ($\overline{M}$, g). We showed that we can't obtain screen semi-invariant lightlike hypersurface (SCI-LH) of $\overline{M}$(c) with parallel second fundamental form h, parallel screen distribution and c ≠ 0. We showed that if second fundamental form h and local second fundamental form B are parallel, then (M, $\overline{g}$) is totally geodesic. Finally we showed that if (M, $\overline{g}$) is umbilical, then cosymplectic manifold ($\overline{M}$, g) is flat.
