In this paper, we study non-integrable distributions in a Riemannian manifold with a semi-symmetric metric connection, a kind of semi-symmetric non-metric connection and a statistical connection. We obtain the Gauss, Codazzi, and Ricci equations for non-integrable distributions with respect to the semi-symmetric metric connection, the semi-symmetric non-metric connection and the statistical connection. As applications, we obtain Chen’s inequalities for non-integrable distributions of real space forms endowed with a semi-symmetric metric connection and a kind of semi-symmetric non-metric connection. We give some examples of non-integrable distributions in a Riemannian manifold with affine connections. We find some new examples of Einstein distributions and distributions with constant scalar curvature.

AbstractIn this paper we prove Chen inequalities for submanifolds of real space forms endowed with a semi-symmetric non-metric connection, i.e., relations between the mean curvature associated with a semi-symmetric non-metric connection, scalar and sectional curvatures, Ricci curvatures and the sectional curvature of the ambient space. The equality cases are considered.

According to the well-known Nash's theorem, every Riemannian n-manifold admits an isometric immersion into the Euclidean space En(n+1)(3n+11)/2. In general, there exist enormously many isometric immersions from a Riemannian manifold into Euclidean spaces if no restriction on the codimension is made. For a submanifold of a Riemannian manifold there are associated several extrinsic invariants beside its intrinsic invariants. Among the extrinsic invariants, the mean curvature function and shape operator are the most fundamental ones.
