A submanifold attaining equality in this inequality pointwise is called a Wintgen ideal submanifold. As conformal invariant objects, Wintgen ideal submanifolds are investigated in this paper using the framework of MSbius geometry. We classify Wintgen ideal submanfiolds of dimension rn ≥ 3 and arbitrary codimension when a canonically defined 2-dimensional distribution D2 is integrable. Such examples come from cones, cylinders, or rotational submanifolds over super-minimal surfaces in spheres, Euclidean spaces, or hyperbolic spaces, respectively. We conjecture that if D2 generates a k-dimensional integrable distribution Dk and k 〈 m, then similar reduction theorem holds true. This generalization when k = 3 has been proved in this paper.展开更多

文摘We obtain an inequality in Sm×R and Hm×R which is similar to DDVV conjecture.As an application,we show that a minimal submanifold in H m×R with nonnegative scalar curvature must be a surface of the type γ×R,where γ is a geodesic in H m.In addition,we get a pinching theorem in Sm×R.
