This paper investigates existence and non-existence of immersions of Riemannian manifolds. It discovers the lowest dimension of the Euclidean space into which the projective plane FP2 is isometrically immersed, by the computation of the normal Euler class. For strictly hyperbolic immersion, a new obstruction involving signature or Kervaire semi-characteristic is found. As for the existence, it constructs a strictly hyperbolic immersion from the Klein bottle to the unit sphere S3(1), solving a question posed by Gromov.
