Abstract: | We define the notions of lightcone Gauss images of spacelike hypersurfaces in de Sitter space. We investigate the relationships between singularities of these maps and geometric properties of spacelike hypersurfaces as an application of the theory of Legendrian singularities. We classify the singularities and give some examples in the generic case in de Sitter 3-space. |
