A Frankel type theorem for CR submanifolds of Sasakian manifolds

Dario Di Pinto, Antonio Lotta (2023)

Archivum Mathematicum

We prove a Frankel type theorem for C R submanifolds of Sasakian manifolds, under suitable hypotheses on the index of the scalar Levi forms determined by normal directions. From this theorem we derive some topological information about C R submanifolds of Sasakian space forms.

A pinching theorem on complete submanifolds with parallel mean curvature vectors

Ziqi Sun (2003)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Let M be an n-dimensional complete immersed submanifold with parallel mean curvature vectors in an (n+p)-dimensional Riemannian manifold N of constant curvature c > 0. Denote the square of length and the length of the trace of the second fundamental tensor of M by S and H, respectively. We prove that if S ≤ 1/(n-1) H² + 2c, n ≥ 4, or S ≤ 1/2 H² + min(2,(3p-3)/(2p-3))c, n = 3, then M is umbilical. This result generalizes the Okumura-Hasanis...

A pointwise inequality in submanifold theory

P. J. De Smet, F. Dillen, Leopold C. A. Verstraelen, L. Vrancken (1999)

Archivum Mathematicum

We obtain a pointwise inequality valid for all submanifolds M n of all real space forms N n + 2 ( c ) with n 2 and with codimension two, relating its main scalar invariants, namely, its scalar curvature from the intrinsic geometry of M n , and its squared mean curvature and its scalar normal curvature from the extrinsic geometry of M n in N m ( c ) .
