The grassmannian manifolds with indefinite metrics

In this paper we study the geometrical properties of Grassmannian manifolds constructed in Minkowski space as submanifolds in a certain pseudo-Euclidean space and give a condition that the generalized Gauss map of a spacelike submanifold in Minkowski space is harmonic. This work is supported partially by the National Natural Science Foundation of China.     

Gauss maps of the Ricci-mean curvature flow

In this paper, we investigate the Gauss maps of a Ricci-mean curvature flow. A Ricci-mean curvature flow is a coupled equation of a mean curvature flow and a Ricci flow on the ambient manifold. Ruh and Vilms (Trans Am Math Soc 149: 569–573, 1970) proved that the Gauss map of a minimal submanifold in a Euclidean space is a harmonic map, and Wang (Math Res Lett 10(2–3):287–299, 2003) extended this result to a mean curvature flow in a Euclidean space by proving its Gauss maps satisfy the harmonic map heat flow equation. In this paper, we deduce the evolution equation for the Gauss maps of a Ricci-mean curvature flow, and as a direct corollary we prove that the Gauss maps of a Ricci-mean curvature flow satisfy the vertically harmonic map heat flow equation when the codimension of submanifolds is 1.     

The Gauss image of entire graphs of higher codimension and Bernstein type theorems

Under suitable conditions on the range of the Gauss map of a complete submanifold of Euclidean space with parallel mean curvature, we construct a strongly subharmonic function and derive a-priori estimates for the harmonic Gauss map. The required conditions here are more general than in previous work and they therefore enable us to improve substantially previous results for the Lawson–Osseman problem concerning the regularity of minimal submanifolds in higher codimension and to derive Bernstein type results.     

Spacelike submanifolds of codimension two in anti-de Sitter space

In this paper, we study spacelike submanifolds of codimension two in anti-de Sitter space from the viewpoint of Legendrian singularity theory. We introduce the notion of the anti-de Sitter normalized Gauss map which is a generalization of the ordinary notion of Gauss map of hypersurfaces in Euclidean space. We also introduce the AdS-normalized Gauss–Kronecker curvature for a spacelike submanifold of codimention two in anti-de Sitter space. In the local sense, this curvature describes the contact of submanifolds with some model surfaces.     

Pluriharmonic maps into Kähler symmetric spaces and Sym’s formula

A construction due to Sym and Bobenko recovers constant mean curvature surfaces in euclidean 3-space from their harmonic Gauss maps. We generalize this construction to higher dimensions and codimensions replacing the surface by a complex manifold and the sphere (the target space of the Gauss map) by a Kähler symmetric space of compact type with its standard embedding into the Lie algebra ${\mathfrak{g}}A construction due to Sym and Bobenko recovers constant mean curvature surfaces in euclidean 3-space from their harmonic Gauss maps. We generalize this construction to higher dimensions and codimensions replacing the surface by a complex manifold and the sphere (the target space of the Gauss map) by a K?hler symmetric space of compact type with its standard embedding into the Lie algebra \mathfrakg{\mathfrak{g}} of its transvection group. Thus we obtain a new class of immersed K?hler submanifolds of \mathfrakg{\mathfrak{g}} and we derive their properties.     

Simple factor dressing and the López–Ros deformation of minimal surfaces in Euclidean 3-space

The aim of this paper is to investigate a new link between integrable systems and minimal surface theory. The dressing operation uses the associated family of flat connections of a harmonic map to construct new harmonic maps. Since a minimal surface in 3-space is a Willmore surface, its conformal Gauss map is harmonic and a dressing on the conformal Gauss map can be defined. We study the induced transformation on minimal surfaces in the simplest case, the simple factor dressing, and show that the well-known López–Ros deformation of minimal surfaces is a special case of this transformation. We express the simple factor dressing and the López–Ros deformation explicitly in terms of the minimal surface and its conjugate surface. In particular, we can control periods and end behaviour of the simple factor dressing. This allows to construct new examples of doubly-periodic minimal surfaces arising as simple factor dressings of Scherk’s first surface.

     

Screen conformal lightlike submanifolds of semi-Riemannian manifolds

Since the induced objects on a lightlike submanifold depend on its screen distribution which, in general, is not unique and hence we can not use the classical submanifold theory on a lightlike submanifold in the usual way. Therefore, in present paper, we study screen conformal lightlike submanifolds of a semi-Riemannian manifold, which are essential for the existence of unique screen distribution. We obtain a characterization theorem for the existence of screen conformal lightlike submanifolds of a semi-Riemannian manifold. We prove that if the differential operator D^s is a metric Otsuki connection on transversal lightlike bundle for a screen conformal lightlike submanifold then semi-Riemannian manifold is a semi-Euclidean space. We also obtain some characterization theorems for a screen conformal totally umbilical lightlike submanifold of a semi-Riemannian space form. Further, we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for a screen conformal lightlike submanifold of constant curvature to be a semi-Euclidean space. Finally, we prove that for an irrotational screen conformal lightlike submanifold of a semi-Riemannian space form, the induced Ricci tensor is symmetric and the null sectional curvature vanishes.     

Genuine Rigidity of Euclidean Submanifolds in Codimension Two

An isometric deformation of an Euclidean submanifold is called genuine if the submanifold cannot be included into a submanifold of larger dimension in such a way that the deformation of the former is given by an isometric deformation of the latter. The submanifold is said to be genuinely rigid if it has no genuine deformations. In this paper we study the deformation problem in codimension two for the classes of elliptic and parabolic submanifolds. In spite of having a second fundamental form as degenerate as possible without being flat, i.e., the Gauss map has rank two everywhere, our main result says that generically these submanifolds are genuinely rigid. An additional unexpected deformation phenomenon for elliptic submanifolds carrying a Kaehler structure is described.     

Immersed surfaces in Lie algebras associated to primitive harmonic maps

Sym and Bobenko gave a construction to recover a constant mean curvature surface in 3-dimensional euclidean space from the one-parameter family of harmonic maps associated to its Gauss map into the sphere. More recently, Eschenburg and Quast generalized this construction by replacing the sphere by a Kähler symmetric space of compact type. In this paper we shall take the generalization of Eschenburg and Quast a step further: our target space is now a generalized flag manifold N = G/K and we consider immersions of M in the Lie algebra ${\mathfrak{g}}$ of G associated to primitive harmonic maps.
