Conformal nullity of isotropic submanifolds

Vladimir Rovenski (2005)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We introduce and study submanifolds with extrinsic curvature and second fundamental form related by an inequality that holds for isotropic submanifolds and becomes equality for totally umbilical submanifolds. The dimension of umbilical subspaces and the index of conformal nullity of these submanifolds with low codimension are estimated from below. The corollaries are characterizations of extrinsic spheres in Riemannian spaces of positive curvature.

Totally umbilical submanifolds in some semi-Riemannian manifolds

Stanisław Ewert-Krzemieniewski (2010)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We investigate totally umbilical submanifolds in manifolds satisfying some curvature conditions of either recurrent or pseudosymmetry type in the sense of Ryszard Deszcz and derive the respective condition for submanifolds. We also prove some relations involving the mean curvature and the Weyl conformal curvature tensor of submanifolds. Some examples are discussed.

Ricci and scalar curvatures of submanifolds of a conformal Sasakian space form

Esmaeil Abedi, Reyhane Bahrami Ziabari, Mukut Mani Tripathi (2016)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

We introduce a conformal Sasakian manifold and we find the inequality involving Ricci curvature and the squared mean curvature for semi-invariant, almost semi-invariant, θ -slant, invariant and anti-invariant submanifolds tangent to the Reeb vector field and the equality cases are also discussed. Also the inequality involving scalar curvature and the squared mean curvature of some submanifolds of a conformal Sasakian space form are obtained.
