AbstractWe study generic and conformally flat hypersurfaces in Euclidean four-space. What kind of conformally flat three manifolds are really immersed generically and conformally in Euclidean space as hypersurfaces? According to the theorem due to Cartan [1], there exists an orthogonal curvature-line coordinate system at each point of such hypersurfaces. This fact is the first step of our study. We classify such hypersurfaces in terms of the first fundamental form. In this paper, we consider hypersurfaces with the first fundamental forms of certain specific types. Then, we give a precise representation of the first and the second fundamental forms of such hypersurfaces, and give exact shapes in Euclidean space of them.

Conformally Flat Hypersurface

We study generic conformally flat hypersurfaces in the Euclidean 4-space satisfying a certain condition on the conformal class of the first fundamental form. We first classify such hypersurfaces by determining all conformal-equivalence classes of generic conformally flat hypersurfaces satisfying the condition. Next, as an application of the classification theorem, we give some examples of flat Riemannian metrics which are not conformal to the first fundamental form of any generic conformally flat hypersurface. These flat Riemannian metrics seem to provide counter-examples to Hertrich–Jeromin's claim [3, 5].

Compact Submanifold

We give some estimates of the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian for compact and non-compact submanifold immersed in the Euclidean space by using the square length of the second fundamental form of the submanifold merely. Then some spherical theorems and a nonimmersibility theorem of Chern and Kuiper type can be obtained.

Codimension One

In a previous paper [1], the authors introduced and studied the notion of special conformally flat spaces and quasi-umbilical hypersurfaces. In that paper, the authors proved that every conformally flat space of codimension one in a Euclidean space is special and, conversely, every special conformally flat space can be isometrically immersed in a Euclidean space as a quasi-umbilical hypersurface.In the present paper, the authors study the conformally flat spaces of codimension 2 in a Euclidean space. (Manifolds, mappings, functions, etc. are assumed to be sufficiently differentiate and we shall restrict ourselves only to manifolds of dimension n > 3.)

Parametric Motion

Guldin-Pappus’s theorem about the volume of a solid of rotation in the euclidean space has been generalized in two ways. G. Koenigs [1] and J. Hadamard [2] proved that the volume generated by a 1-parametric motion of a surface D bounded by a closed curve c is equal to where are quantities attached to D with respect to a rectangular coordinate system, while are quantities determined by our motion.
