The Rigging Technique for Null Hypersurfaces
Starting from the main definitions, we review the rigging technique for null hypersurfaces theory and most of its main properties. We make some applications to illustrate it. On the one hand, we show how we can use it to show properties of null hypersurfaces, with emphasis in null cones, totally geo...

description | Starting from the main definitions, we review the rigging technique for null hypersurfaces theory and most of its main properties. We make some applications to illustrate it. On the one hand, we show how we can use it to show properties of null hypersurfaces, with emphasis in null cones, totally geodesic, totally umbilic, and compact null hypersurfaces. On the other hand, we show the interplay with the ambient space, including its influence in causality theory. |
