Warped products are the most natural and fruitful generalization of Riemannian products. Such products play very important roles in differential geometry and in general relativity. After Bishop and O’Neill’s 1969 article, there have been many works done on warped products from intrinsic point of view during the last fifty years. In contrast, the study of warped products from extrinsic point of view was initiated around the beginning of this century by the first author in a series of his articles. In particular, he established an optimal inequality for an isometric immersion of a warped product N1×fN2 into any Riemannian manifold Rm(c) of constant sectional curvature c which involves the Laplacian of the warping function f and the squared mean curvature H2 . Since then, the study of warped product submanifolds became an active research subject, and many papers have been published by various geometers. The purpose of this article is to provide a comprehensive survey on the study of warped product submanifolds which are closely related with this inequality, done during the last two decades.

In this article, the degenerate warped products of singular semi-Riemannian manifolds are studied. They were used recently by the author to handle singularities occurring in General Relativity, in black holes and at the big-bang. One main result presented here is that a degenerate warped product of semi-regular semi-Riemannian manifolds with the warping function satisfying a certain condition is a semi-regular semi-Riemannian manifold. The connection and the Riemann curvature of the warped product are expressed in terms of those of the factor manifolds. Examples of singular semi-Riemannian manifolds which are semi-regular are constructed as warped products. Applications include cosmological models and black holes solutions with semi-regular singularities. Such singularities are compatible with a certain reformulation of the Einstein equation, which in addition holds at semi-regular singularities too.

Warped products play crucial roles in differential geometry, as well as in mathematical physics, especially in general relativity. In this article, first we define and study statistical solitons on Ricci-symmetric statistical warped products R × f N 2 and N 1 × f R . Second, we study statistical warped products as submanifolds of statistical manifolds. For statistical warped products statistically immersed in a statistical manifold of constant curvature, we prove Chen’s inequality involving scalar curvature, the squared mean curvature, and the Laplacian of warping function (with respect to the Levi–Civita connection). At the end, we establish a relationship between the scalar curvature and the Casorati curvatures in terms of the Laplacian of the warping function for statistical warped product submanifolds in the same ambient space.

AbstractWe establish a general sharp inequality for warped products in real space form. As applications, we show that if the warping function $f$ of a warped product $N_1\times_fN_2$ is a harmonic function, then(1) every isometric minimal immersion of $N_1\times_fN_2$ into a Euclidean space is locally a warped-product immersion, and(2) there are no isometric minimal immersions from $N_1\times_f N_2$ into hyperbolic spaces.Moreover, we prove that if either $N_1$ is compact or the warping function $f$ is an eigenfunction of the Laplacian with positive eigenvalue, then $N_1\times_f N_2$ admits no isometric minimal immersion into a Euclidean space or a hyperbolic space for any codimension. We also provide examples to show that our results are sharp.AMS 2000 Mathematics subject classification: Primary 53C40; 53C42; 53B25

Recently, B.-Y. Chen discovered a technique to find the relation between second fundamental form and the warping function of warped product submanifolds. In this paper, we extend our further study of [24] by giving non-trivial examples of warped product pointwise hemi-slant submanifolds. Finally, we establish a sharp estimation for the squared norm of the second fundamental form ||h||2 in terms of the warping function f. The equality case is also investigated.

We prove a new optimal inequality for CR-warped products in complex space forms involving a CR δ-invariant. Moreover, we completely classify CR-warped product submanifolds in complex Euclidean space which satisfy the equality case of the inequality.

In the present paper, we prove that if Laplacian for the warping function of complete warped product submanifold M m = B p × h F q in a unit sphere S m + k satisfies some extrinsic inequalities depending on the dimensions of the base B p and fiber F q such that the base B p is minimal, then M m must be diffeomorphic to a unit sphere S m . Moreover, we give some geometrical classification in terms of Euler–Lagrange equation and Hamiltonian of the warped function. We also discuss some related results.

In this paper, we study CR-warped product submanifolds of [Formula: see text]-manifolds. We prove that the CR-warped product submanifolds with invariant fiber are trivial warped products and provide a characterization theorem of CR-warped products with anti-invariant fiber of [Formula: see text]-manifolds. Moreover, we develop an inequality of CR-warped product submanifolds for the second fundamental form in terms of warping function and the equality cases are considered. Also, we find a necessary and sufficient condition for compact oriented CR-warped products turning into CR-products of [Formula: see text]-space forms.

AbstractIn the present, we first obtain Chen–Ricci inequality for C-totally real warped product submanifolds in cosymplectic space forms. Then, we focus on characterizing spheres and Euclidean spaces, by using the Bochner formula and a second-order ordinary differential equation with geometric inequalities. We derive the characterization for the base of the warped product via the first eigenvalue of the warping function. Also, it proves that there is an isometry between the base $\mathbb{N}_{1}$ N 1 and the Euclidean sphere $\mathbb{S}^{m_{1}}$ S m 1 under some different extrinsic conditions.

AbstractIn this paper we prove two inequalities relating the warping function to various curvature terms, for warped products isometrically immersed in Riemannian manifolds. This extends work by B. Y. Chen [‘On isometric minimal immersions from warped products into real space forms’, Proc. Edinb. Math. Soc. (2) 45(3) (2002), 579–587 and ‘Warped products in real space forms’, Rocky Mountain J. Math.34(2) (2004), 551–563] for the case of immersions into space forms. Finally, we give an application where the target manifold is the Clifford torus.

In [3], it was shown that there are no warped product submanifolds of a locally product Riemannian manifold such that the spherical submanifold of a warped product is proper slant. In this paper, we introduce the notion of warped product submanifolds with a slant function and show that there exists a class of non-trivial warped product submanifolds of a locally product Riemannian manifold such that the spherical submanifold is pointwise slant by giving some examples. We present a characterization theorem and establish a sharp relationship between the squared norm of the second fundamental form and the warping function in terms of the slant function for such warped product submanifolds of a locally product Riemannian manifold. The equality case is also considered.
