Locally symmetric minimal affine Lagrangian surfaces in C<Superscript>2</Superscript>

One of the basic facts known in the theory of minimal Lagrangian surfaces is that a minimal Lagrangian surface of constant curvature in C ² must be totally geodesic. In affine geometry the constancy of curvature corresponds to the local symmetry of a connection. In Opozda (Geom. Dedic. 121:155–166, 2006), we proposed an affine version of the theory of minimal Lagrangian submanifolds. In this paper we give a local classification of locally symmetric minimal affine Lagrangian surfaces in C ². Only very few of surfaces obtained in the classification theorems are Lagrangian in the sense of metric (pseudo-Riemannian) geometry. The research supported by the KBN grant 1 PO3A 034 26.     

Pseudo-parallel Lagrangian submanifolds are semi-parallel

We prove a conjecture formulated by Pablo M. Chacon and Guillermo A. Lobos in [P.M. Chacon, G.A. Lobos, Pseudo-parallel Lagrangian submanifolds in complex space forms, Differential Geom. Appl. 27 (1) (2009) 137–145, doi:10.1016/j.difgeo.2008.06.014] stating that every Lagrangian pseudo-parallel submanifold of a complex space form of dimension at least 3 is semi-parallel. We also propose to study another notion of pseudo-parallelity which is more adapted to the Kaehlerian setting.

On special submanifolds of the Page space

In this paper, we study some classes of submanifolds of codimension one and two in the Page space. These submanifolds are totally geodesic. We also compute their curvature and show that some of them are constant curvature spaces. Finally, we give information on how the Page space is related to some other metrics on the same underlying smooth manifold.     

Austere and arid properties for PF submanifolds in Hilbert spaces

Austere submanifolds and arid submanifolds constitute respectively two different classes of minimal submanifolds in finite dimensional Riemannian manifolds. In this paper we introduce the concepts of these submanifolds into a class of proper Fredholm (PF) submanifolds in Hilbert spaces, discuss their relation and show examples of infinite dimensional austere PF submanifolds and arid PF submanifolds in Hilbert spaces. We also mention a classification problem of minimal orbits in hyperpolar PF actions on Hilbert spaces.

Classification of Casorati ideal Lagrangian submanifolds in complex space forms

In this paper, using optimization methods on Riemannian submanifolds, we establish two improved inequalities for generalized normalized δ-Casorati curvatures of Lagrangian submanifolds in complex space forms. We provide examples showing that these inequalities are the best possible and classify all Casorati ideal Lagrangian submanifolds (in the sense of B.-Y. Chen) in a complex space form. In particular, we generalize the recent results obtained in G.E. Vîlcu (2018) [34].     

Some remarks on pseudo-umbilical totally real submanifolds in a complex projective space

This paper studies the relationship between the pseudo-umbilical totally real submanifolds and the minimal totally real submanifolds in a complex projective space. Two theo- rems which claim that some types of pseudo-umbilical totally real submanifolds must be minimal submanifolds are proved.     

Affine biharmonic submanifolds in 3-dimensional pseudo-Hermitian geometry

The notion of biharmonic map between Riemannian manifolds is generalized to maps from Riemannian manifolds into affine manifolds. Hopf cylinders in 3-dimensional Sasakian space forms which are biharmonic with respect to Tanaka-Webster connection are classified. Dedicated to professor John C. Wood on his 60th birthday.     

Low-type submanifolds of real space forms via the immersions by projectors

We undertake a comprehensive study of submanifolds of low Chen-type (1, 2, or 3) in non-flat real space forms, immersed into a suitable (pseudo) Euclidean space of symmetric matrices by projection operators. Some previous results for submanifolds of the unit sphere (obtained in [A. Ros, Eigenvalue inequalities for minimal submanifolds and P-manifolds, Math. Z. 187 (1984) 393–404; M. Barros, B.Y. Chen, Spherical submanifolds which are of 2-type via the second standard immersion of the sphere, Nagoya Math. J. 108 (1987) 77–91; I. Dimitrić, Spherical hypersurfaces with low type quadric representation, Tokyo J. Math. 13 (1990) 469–492; J.T. Lu, Hypersurfaces of a sphere with 3-type quadric representation, Kodai Math. J. 17 (1994) 290–298]) are generalized and extended to real projective and hyperbolic spaces as well as to the sphere. In particular, we give a characterization of 2-type submanifolds of these space forms with parallel mean curvature vector. We classify 2-type hypersurfaces in these spaces and give two sets of necessary conditions for a minimal hypersurface to be of 3-type and for a hypersurface with constant mean curvature to be mass-symmetric and of 3-type. These conditions are then used to classify such hypersurfaces of dimension n5. For example, the complete minimal hypersurfaces of the unit sphere Sⁿ⁺¹ which are of 3-type via the immersion by projectors are exactly the 3-dimensional Cartan minimal hypersurface and the Clifford minimal hypersurfaces M_k,n−k for n≠2k. An interesting characterization of horospheres in is also obtained.

Affine geometry designs, polarities, and Hamada's conjecture

In a recent paper, two of the authors used polarities in PG(2d−1,p) (p?2 prime, d?2) to construct non-geometric designs having the same parameters and the same p-rank as the geometric design PGd(2d,p) having as blocks the d-subspaces in the projective space PG(2d,p), hence providing the first known infinite family of examples where projective geometry designs are not characterized by their p-rank, as it is the case in all known proven cases of Hamada's conjecture. In this paper, the construction based on polarities is extended to produce designs having the same parameters, intersection numbers, and 2-rank as the geometric design AGd+1(2d+1,2) of the (d+1)-subspaces in the binary affine geometry AG(2d+1,2). These designs generalize one of the four non-geometric self-orthogonal 3-(32,8,7) designs of 2-rank 16 (V.D. Tonchev, 1986 [12]), and provide the only known infinite family of examples where affine geometry designs are not characterized by their rank.     

Relative flux homomorphism in symplectic geometry

In this work we define a relative version of the flux homomorphism, introduced by Calabi in 1969, for a symplectic manifold. We use it to study (the universal cover of) the group of symplectomorphisms of a symplectic manifold leaving a Lagrangian submanifold invariant. We also show that some quotients of the universal covering of the group of symplectomorphisms are stable under symplectic reduction.

Optimal general inequalities for Lagrangian submanifolds in complex space forms

Lagrangian submanifolds appear naturally in the context of classical mechanics. Moreover, they play some important roles in supersymmetric field theories as well as in string theory. In this paper we establish general inequalities for Lagrangian submanifolds in complex space forms. We also provide examples showing that these inequalities are the best possible. Moreover, we provide simple non-minimal examples which satisfy the equality case of the improved inequalities.     

Projection on Segre varieties and determination of holomorphic mappings between real submanifolds

It is shown that a germ of a holomorphic mapping sending a real-analytic generic submanifold of finite type into another is determined by its projection on the Segre variety of the target manifold. A necessary and sufficient condition is given for a germ of a mapping into the Segre variety of the target manifold to be the projection of a holomorphic mapping sending the source manifold into the target. An application to the biholomorphic equivalence problem is also given. Dedicated to Professor Sheng GONG on the occasion of his 75th birthday     

On Ricci curvature ofC-totally real submanifolds in Sasakian space forms

LetM ⁿ be a Riemanniann-manifold. Denote byS(p) and Ric(p) the Ricci tensor and the maximum Ricci curvature onM _n, respectively. In this paper we prove that everyC-totally real submanifold of a Sasakian space formM ^2m+1(c) satisfies , whereH ² andg are the square mean curvature function and metric tensor onM ⁿ, respectively. The equality holds identically if and only if eitherM ⁿ is totally geodesic submanifold or n = 2 andM ⁿ is totally umbilical submanifold. Also we show that if aC-totally real submanifoldM ⁿ ofM ²ⁿ⁺¹ (c) satisfies identically, then it is minimal.
