We investigate when the tangent bundle of a projective manifold has a nontrivial first-order (or positive-dimensional) deformation. This leads to a new conjectural characterization of the complex projective space.

In a recent paper, [6], Nomizu and Rodriguez found a geometric characterization of umbilical submanifolds Mn ⊂ Rn+p in terms of the critical point behavior of a certain class of functions Lp, p ⊂ Rn+p, on Mn. In that case, if p ⊂ Rn+p, x ⊂ Mn, then Lp(x) = (d(x,p))2, where d is the Euclidean distance function.

AbstractWe give a characterization of a minimal real hypersurface with respect to the condition for the sectional curvature.

We investigate the first-order Thom–Boardman singularity sets of the dual mapping for an arbitrary (and then for a generic) smooth hypersurface in the complex projective space ℙn. Our results focus on nonemptiness, connectedness, regular stratifications and numerical invariants for these sets.
