Bounds for Statistical Curvatures of Submanifolds in Kenmotsu-like Statistical Manifolds

In this article, we obtain certain bounds for statistical curvatures of submanifolds with any codimension of Kenmotsu-like statistical manifolds. In this context, we construct a class of optimum inequalities for submanifolds in Kenmotsu-like statistical manifolds containing the normalized scalar curvature and the generalized normalized Casorati curvatures. We also define the second fundamental form of those submanifolds that satisfy the equality condition. On Legendrian submanifolds of Kenmotsu-like statistical manifolds, we discuss a conjecture for Wintgen inequality. At the end, some immediate geometric consequences are stated.

Contact Dynamics: Legendrian and Lagrangian Submanifolds

We are proposing Tulczyjew’s triple for contact dynamics. The most important ingredients of the triple, namely symplectic diffeomorphisms, special symplectic manifolds, and Morse families, are generalized to the contact framework. These geometries permit us to determine so-called generating family (obtained by merging a special contact manifold and a Morse family) for a Legendrian submanifold. Contact Hamiltonian and Lagrangian Dynamics are recast as Legendrian submanifolds of the tangent contact manifold. In this picture, the Legendre transformation is determined to be a passage between two different generators of the same Legendrian submanifold. A variant of contact Tulczyjew’s triple is constructed for evolution contact dynamics.

Differential Invariants of Measurements, and Their Relation to Central Moments

Due to the principle of minimal information gain, the measurement of points in an affine space V determines a Legendrian submanifold of V×V*×R. Such Legendrian submanifolds are equipped with additional geometric structures that come from the central moments of the underlying probability distributions and are invariant under the action of the group of affine transformations on V. We investigate the action of this group of affine transformations on Legendrian submanifolds of V×V*×R by giving a detailed overview of the structure of the algebra of scalar differential invariants, and we show how the scalar differential invariants can be constructed from the central moments. In the end, we view the results in the context of equilibrium thermodynamics of gases, and notice that the heat capacity is one of the differential invariants.

On Legendrian cobordisms and generating functions

This note concerns Legendrian cobordisms in one-jet spaces of functions, in the sense of Arnol’d [Lagrange and Legendre cobordisms. I, Funkt. Anal. Prilozhen. 14(3) (1980) 1–13, 96.] — consisting of big Legendrian submanifolds between two smaller ones. We are interested in such cobordisms which fit with generating functions, and wonder which structures and obstructions come with this notion. As a central result, we show that the classes of Legendrian concordances with respect to the generating function equipment can be given a group structure. To this construction, we add one of a homotopy with respect to generating functions.

On Differential Equations Characterizing Legendrian Submanifolds of Sasakian Space Forms

In this paper, we give an estimate of the first eigenvalue of the Laplace operator on minimally immersed Legendrian submanifold N n in Sasakian space forms N ˜ 2 n + 1 ( ϵ ) . We prove that a minimal Legendrian submanifolds in a Sasakian space form is isometric to a standard sphere S n if the Ricci curvature satisfies an extrinsic condition which includes a gradient of a function, the constant holomorphic sectional curvature of the ambient space and a dimension of N n . We also obtain a Simons-type inequality for the same ambient space forms N ˜ 2 n + 1 ( ϵ ) .

On the normal scalar curvature conjecture for legendrian submanifolds in Kenmotsu space forms

In this paper, we prove DDVV conjecture (the generalized Wintgen inequality) for Legendrian submanifolds in Kenmotsu space forms. Further, we derive an inequality for slant submanifolds in Kenmotsu space forms.
