On local isometric immersions into complex and quaternionic projective spaces

Hans Jakob Rivertz (2011)

Archivum Mathematicum

We will prove that if an open subset of P n is isometrically immersed into P m , with m < ( 4 / 3 ) n - 2 / 3 , then the image is totally geodesic. We will also prove that if an open subset of P n isometrically immersed into P m , with m < ( 4 / 3 ) n - 5 / 6 , then the image is totally geodesic.

On minimal homothetical hypersurfaces

Lin Jiu, Huafei Sun (2007)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We give a classification of minimal homothetical hypersurfaces in an (n+1)-dimensional Euclidean space. In fact, when n ≥ 3, a minimal homothetical hypersurface is a hyperplane, a quadratic cone, a cylinder on a quadratic cone or a cylinder on a helicoid.

On Ricci curvature of totally real submanifolds in a quaternion projective space

Ximin Liu (2002)

Archivum Mathematicum

Let M n be a Riemannian n -manifold. Denote by S ( p ) and Ric ¯ ( p ) the Ricci tensor and the maximum Ricci curvature on M n , respectively. In this paper we prove that every totally real submanifolds of a quaternion projective space Q P m ( c ) satisfies S ( ( n - 1 ) c + n 2 4 H 2 ) g , where H 2 and g are the square mean curvature function and metric tensor on M n , respectively. The equality holds identically if and only if either M n is totally geodesic submanifold or n = 2 and M n is totally umbilical submanifold. Also we show that if a Lagrangian submanifold of...

On stable currents in positively pinched curved hypersurfaces

Jintang Li (2003)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Let Mⁿ (n ≥ 3) be an n-dimensional complete hypersurface in a real space form N(c) (c ≥ 0). We prove that if the sectional curvature K M of M satisfies the following pinching condition: c + δ < K M c + 1 , where δ = 1/5 for n ≥ 4 and δ = 1/4 for n = 3, then there are no stable currents (or stable varifolds) in M. This is a positive answer to the well-known conjecture of Lawson and Simons.

On superminimal surfaces

Thomas Friedrich (1997)

Archivum Mathematicum

Using the Cartan method O. Boruvka (see [B1], [B2]) studied superminimal surfaces in four-dimensional space forms. In particular, he described locally the family of all superminimal surfaces and classified all of them with a constant radius of the indicatrix. We discuss the mentioned results from the point of view of the twistor theory, providing some new proofs. It turns out that the superminimal surfaces investigated by geometers at the beginning of this century as well as by O. Boruvka...

On the Cartan-Norden theorem for affine Kähler immersions

Maria Robaszewska (2000)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

In [O2] the Cartan-Norden theorem for real affine immersions was proved without the non-degeneracy assumption. A similar reasoning applies to the case of affine Kähler immersions with an anti-complex shape operator, which allows us to weaken the assumptions of the theorem given in [NP]. We need only require the immersion to have a non-vanishing type number everywhere on M.
