In this paper, we introduce the idea of a lightlike submersion from
a semi-Riemannian manifold onto a lightlike manifold, and give some
examples. Then we define O’Neill’s tensors for such submersions and
investigate their main properties. We show that the Schouten connection is not a metric connection in a lightlike submersion. We also investigate curvature properties of the manifolds and establish a relation
between the null sectional curvatures of a semi-Riemannian manifold
and a lightlike manifold.
