A Divergence Theorem for Finlser Metrics.
We prove a Frankel type theorem for 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 submanifolds of Sasakian space forms.
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...
We obtain a pointwise inequality valid for all submanifolds of all real space forms with and with codimension two, relating its main scalar invariants, namely, its scalar curvature from the intrinsic geometry of , and its squared mean curvature and its scalar normal curvature from the extrinsic geometry of in .
