Abstract
The objective of this chapter is to present an up-to-date account of the works published on the general theory of lightlike submanifolds of semi-Riemannian manifolds. This includes unique existence theorems for screen distributions, geometry of totally umbilical, minimal and warped product lightlike submanifolds.
