For submanifolds tangent to the structure vector field in cosymplectic space forms, we establish a basic inequality between the main intrinsic invariants of the submanifold, namely, its sectional curvature and scalar curvature on one side; and its main extrinsic invariant, namely, squared mean curvature on the other side. Some applications, including inequalities between the intrinsic invariantδMand the squared mean curvature, are given. The equality cases are also discussed.

For submanifolds tangent to the structure vector field in Sasakian space forms, we establish a Chen's basic inequality between the main intrinsic invariants of the submanifold (namely, its pseudosectional curvature and pseudosectional curvature on one side) and the main extrinsic invariant (namely, squared pseudomean curvature on the other side) with respect to the Tanaka-Webster connection. Moreover, involving the pseudo-Ricci curvature and the squared pseudo-mean curvature, we obtain a basic inequality for submanifolds of a Sasakian space form tangent to the structure vector field in terms of the Tanaka-Webster connection.

AbstractRecently, Chen established a sharp relationship between the Ricci curvature and the squared mean curvature for a submanifold in a Riemannian space form with arbitrary codimension. Afterwards, we dealt with similar problems for submanifolds in complex space forms.In the present paper, we obtain sharp inequalities between the Ricci curvature and the squared mean curvature for submanifolds in Sasakian space forms. Also, estimates of the scalar curvature and the k-Ricci curvature respectively, in terms of the squared mean curvature, are proved.

Let [Formula: see text] be a nondegenerate biharmonic pseudo-Riemannian hypersurface in a pseudo-Riemannian space form [Formula: see text] with constant sectional curvature [Formula: see text]. We show that [Formula: see text] has constant mean curvature provided that it has three distinct principal curvatures and the Weingarten operator can be diagonalizable.

SynopsisSuppose that a space form is immersed into another Riemannian manifold as a totally umbilical hypersurface with constant mean curvature. Then, in the ambient manifold, the lengthof the curvature tensor, that of the Ricci tensor and the scalar curvature must satisfy an inequality. In this paper the authors proved the inequality. As applications of the inequality, some immersibility problems are investigated. For example, it is proved that if a space form is immersed in an Einstein manifold as a totally umbilical hypersurface, then the Einstein manifold has constant sectional curvature along the hypersurface. Moreover, it is proved that a space form cannot be immersed into some Kaehlerian manifolds as a totally umbilical hypersurface with constant mean curvature.

In this paper we investigate three-dimensional complete minimal hypersurfaces with constant Gauss-Kronecker curvature in a space form M4(c) (c ≤ 0). We prove that if the scalar curvature of a such hypersurface is bounded from below, then its Gauss-Kronecker curvature vanishes identically. Examples of complete minimal hypersurfaces which are not totally geodesic in the Euclidean space E4 and the hyperbolic space H4(c) with vanishing Gauss-Kronecker curvature are also presented. It is also proved that totally umbilical hypersurfaces are the only complete hypersurfaces with non-zero constant mean curvature and with zero quasi-Gauss-Kronecker curvature in a space form M4(c) (c ≤ 0) if the scalar curvature is bounded from below. In particular, we classify complete hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature and with constant quasi-Gauss-Kronecker curvature in a space form M4(c) (c ≤ 0) if the scalar curvature r satisfies r≥ ⅔c.

We study sectional curvature, Ricci tensor, and scalar curvature of submanifolds of generalized -space forms. Then we give an upper bound for foliate -horizontal (and vertical) CR-submanifold of a generalized -space form and an upper bound for minimal -horizontal (and vertical) CR-submanifold of a generalized -space form. Finally, we give the same results for special cases of generalized -space forms such as -space forms, generalized Sasakian space forms, Sasakian space forms, Kenmotsu space forms, cosymplectic space forms, and almost -manifolds.

Abstract.For an isotropic submanifold Mn (n ≧ 3) of a space form of constant sectional curvature c, we show that if the mean curvature vector of Mn is parallel and the sectional curvature K of Mn satisfies some inequality, then the second fundamental form of Mn in is parallel and our manifold Mn is a space form.

We study lightlike hypersurfacesMof an indefinite generalized Sasakian space formM-(f1,f2,f3), with indefinite trans-Sasakian structure of type(α,β), subject to the condition that the structure vector field ofM-is tangent toM. First we study the general theory for lightlike hypersurfaces of indefinite trans-Sasakian manifold of type(α,β). Next we prove several characterization theorems for lightlike hypersurfaces of an indefinite generalized Sasakian space form.

AbstractFor a contact manifold, we study a strongly pseudo-convex CR space form with constant holomorphic sectional curvature for the Tanaka-Webster connection. We prove that a strongly pseudo-convex CR space form M is weakly locally pseudo-Hermitian symmetric if and only if (i) dim M = 3, (ii) M is a Sasakian space form, or (iii) M is locally isometric to the unit tangent sphere bundle T1(𝔿n+1) of a hyperbolic space 𝔿n+1 of constant curvature −1.

Chen (1993) established a sharp inequality for the sectional curvature of a submanifold in Riemannian space forms in terms of the scalar curvature and squared mean curvature. The notion of a semislant submanifold of a Sasakian manifold was introduced by J. L. Cabrerizo, A. Carriazo, L. M. Fernandez, and M. Fernandez (1999). In the present paper, we establish Chen inequalities for semislant submanifolds in Sasakian space forms by using subspaces orthogonal to the Reeb vector fieldξ.
