Affine connections of non-integrable distributions

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.

Horizontal Newton operators and high-order Minkowski formula

In this paper, we study the horizontal Newton transformations, which are nonlinear operators related to the natural splitting of the second fundamental form for hypersurfaces in a complex space form. These operators allow to prove the classical Minkowski formulas in the case of real space forms: unlike the real case, the horizontal ones are not divergence-free. Here, we consider the highest order of nonlinearity and we will show how a Minkowski-type formula can be obtained in this case.

Delaunay surfaces in S3(ρ)

Recently, invariant constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces in real space forms have been characterized locally by using extremal curves of a Blaschke type energy functional [5]. Here, we use this characterization to offer a new approach to some global results for CMC rotational surfaces in the 3-sphere.

A fundamental theorem for submanifolds of multiproducts of real space forms

We prove a Bonnet theorem for isometric immersions of submanifolds into the products of an arbitrary number of simply connected real space forms. Then we prove the existence of associate families of minimal surfaces in such products. Finally, in the case of 𝕊

A Class of Special Hypersurfaces in Real Space Forms

We define the generalized golden- and product-shaped hypersurfaces in real space forms. A hypersurfaceMin real space formsRn+1,Sn+1, andHn+1is isoparametric if it has constant principal curvatures. Based on the classification of isoparametric hypersurfaces, we obtain the whole families of the generalized golden- and product-shaped hypersurfaces in real space forms.
