We shall consider the classification problem for space forms of (Riemannian manifolds which are covered by) real, complex, and quaternionic Grassmann manifolds. In the particular case of the real Grassmann manifold of oriented 1-dimensional subspaces of a real Euclidean space, this is the classical "spherical space form problem" of Clifford and Klein. We shall not consider space forms of the Cayley projective plane because it is easy to see that there are no non-trivial ones.

AbstractRecently, Chen defined an invariant δM of a Riemannian manifold M. Sharp inequalities for this Riemannian invariant were obtained for submanifolds in real, complex and Sasakian space forms, in terms of their mean curvature. In the present paper, we investigate certain C-totally real submanifolds of a Sasakian space form M2m+1(C)satisfying Chen's equality.

This paper is aimed at establishing new upper bounds for the first positive eigenvalue of the ϕ -Laplacian operator on Riemannian manifolds in terms of mean curvature and constant sectional curvature. The first eigenvalue for the ϕ -Laplacian operator on closed oriented m -dimensional slant submanifolds in a Sasakian space form M ~ 2 k + 1 ε is estimated in various ways. Several Reilly-like inequalities are generalized from our findings for Laplacian to the ϕ -Laplacian on slant submanifold in a sphere S 2 n + 1 with ε = 1 and ϕ = 2 .

AbstractWe use the eta invariant to show every non-simply connected spherical space form of dimension m ≥ 5 has a countable family of non bordant metrics of positive scalar curvature.

Abstract We show that any triharmonic Riemannian submersion from a 3-dimensional space form into a surface is harmonic. This is an affirmative partial answer to the submersion version of the generalized Chen conjecture. Moreover, a non-existence theorem for f -biharmonic Riemannian submersions is also presented.

AbstractThe recently introduced Lipschitz–Killing curvature measures on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds satisfy a Weyl principle, i.e. are invariant under isometric embeddings. We show that they are uniquely characterized by this property. We apply this characterization to prove a Künneth-type formula for Lipschitz–Killing curvature measures, and to classify the invariant generalized valuations and curvature measures on all isotropic pseudo-Riemannian space forms.

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.
