Geometry of null hypersurfaces

arXiv:gr-qc/0405108

Abstract

We review some basic natural geometric objects on null hypersurfaces. Gauss-Codazzi constraints are given in terms of the analog of canonical ADM momentum which is a well defined tensor density on the null surface. Bondi cones are analyzed with the help of this object.
