On null submanifolds of generalized Robertson–Walker space forms

On null submanifolds of generalized Robertson–Walker space forms

We investigate totally umbilical r -null submanifolds of generalized Robertson–Walker space forms. Usinggeneralized Newton transformations, we obtain new geometric configurations for the mean curvature functions whichgeneralize many well-known results on null geometry.
