AbstractBased on the ideas of Bessa, Jorge and Montenegro (Comm. Anal. Geom., vol. 15, no. 4, 2007, pp. 725–732) we show that a complete submanifold M with tamed second fundamental form in a complete Riemannian manifold N with sectional curvature KN ≤ κ ≤ 0 is proper (compact if N is compact). In addition, if N is Hadamard, then M has finite topology. We also show that the fundamental tone is an obstruction for a Riemannian manifold to be realised as submanifold with tamed second fundamental form of a Hadamard manifold with sectional curvature bounded below.

Let Mn be an n-dimensional Riemannian manifold minimally immersed in the unit sphere Sn+p (1) of dimension n + p. When Mn is compact, Chern, do Carmo and Kobayashi [1] proved that if the square ‖h‖2 of length of the second fundamental form h in Mn is not more than , then either Mn is totallygeodesic, or Mn is the Veronese surface in S4 (1) or Mn is the Clifford torus .In this paper, we generalize the results due to Chern, do Carmo and Kobayashi [1] to complete Riemannian manifolds.

Let M be a. complete connected Riemannian manifold of dimension n and let £:M → Rn+k be an isometric immersion into the Euclidean space Rn+k. Let ∇ be the connection on Mn and let be the Euclidean connection on Rn+k. Also letdenote the second fundamental form B(X, Y) = (xY)→. Here TP(M) denotes the tangent space at p, NP(M) the normal space and (…)→ the normal component.

AbstractWe give a formula for the Laplacian of the second fundamental form of an n-dimensional compact minimal submanifold M in a complex projective space CPm. As an application of this formula, we prove that M is a geodesic minimal hypersphere in CPm if the sectional curvature satisfies K≥1/n, if the normal connection is flat, and if M satisfies an additional condition which is automatically satisfied when M is a CR submanifold. We also prove that M is the complex projective space CPn/2 if K≥3/n, and if the normal connection of M is semi-flat.

Let $\tilde{M}^{m}(c)$ be a complex $m$-dimensional space form of holomorphic sectional curvature $c$ and $M^{n}$ be a complex $n$-dimensional Kaehlerian submanifold of $\tilde{M}^{m}(c).$ We prove that if $M^{n}$ is pseudo-parallel and $Ln-\frac{1}{2}(n+2)c\geqslant 0$ then $M$ $^{n}$ is totally geodesic. Also, we study Kaehlerian submanifolds of complex space form with recurrent second fundamental form.

The energy of any [Formula: see text] representative of a homotopy class of maps from a compact and connected Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature into a complete Riemannian manifold with no conjugate points is bounded below by a constant determined by the asymptotic geometry of the target, with equality if and only if the original map is totally geodesic. This conclusion also holds under the weaker assumption that the domain is finitely covered by a diffeomorphic product, and its universal covering space splits isometrically as a product with a flat factor, in a commutative diagram that follows from the Cheeger–Gromoll splitting theorem.

Subject of present paper is the geometry of foliation defined by submersions on complete Riemannian manifold. It is proven foliation defined by Riemannian submersion on the complete manifold of zero sectional curvature is total geodesic foliation with isometric leaves. Also it is shown level surfaces of metric function are conformally equivalent.

In this paper, we consider the high-order geometric flows of a compact submanifolds [Formula: see text] in a complete Riemannian manifold [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text], which were introduced by Mantegazza in the case the ambient space is an Euclidean space, and extend some results due to Mantegazza to the present situation under some assumptions on [Formula: see text]. Precisely, we show that if [Formula: see text] is strictly larger than the integer part of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is an immersion for all [Formula: see text] and if [Formula: see text] is bounded by a constant which relies on the injectivity radius [Formula: see text] and sectional curvature [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text], then [Formula: see text] must be [Formula: see text].

Abstract We establish integral formulas and sharp two-sided bounds for the Ricci curvature, mean curvature and second fundamental form on a Riemannian manifold with boundary. As applications, sharp gradient and Hessian estimates are derived for the Dirichlet and Neumann eigenfunctions.
