Totally geodesic submanifolds in Riemannian symmetric spaces
In the first part of this expository article, the most important constructions and classification results concerning totally geodesic submanifolds in Riemannian symmetric spaces are summarized. In the second part, I describe the results of my classification of the totally geodesic submanifolds in the Riemannian symmetric spaces of rank 2. To appear in the Proceedings volume for the conference V...
متن کاملTotally geodesic submanifolds of the exceptional Riemannian symmetric spaces of rank 2
The present article is the final part of a series on the classification of the totally geodesic submanifolds of the irreducible Riemannian symmetric spaces of rank 2. After this problem has been solved for the 2-Grassmannians in my papers [K1] and [K2], and for the space SU(3)/SO(3) in Section 6 of [K3], we now solve the classification for the remaining irreducible Riemannian symmetric spaces o...
متن کاملTotally geodesic submanifolds of the complex quadric
In this article, relations between the root space decomposition of a Riemannian symmetric space of compact type and the root space decompositions of its totally geodesic submanifolds (symmetric subspaces) are described. These relations provide an approach to the classification of totally geodesic submanifolds in Riemannian symmetric spaces. In this way a classification of the totally geodesic s...
متن کاملTotally Geodesic Submanifolds of Teichmüller Space
Main results. Let Tg,n andMg,n denote the Teichmüller and moduli space respectively of genus g Riemann surfaces with n marked points. The Teichmüller metric on these spaces is a natural Finsler metric that quantifies the failure of two different Riemann surfaces to be conformally equivalent. It is equal to the Kobayashi metric [Roy74], and hence reflects the intrinsic complex geometry of these ...
متن کاملSymmetric Submanifolds of Riemannian Symmetric Spaces
A symmetric space is a Riemannian manifold that is “symmetric” about each of its points: for each p ∈M there is an isometry σp of M such that (σp)∗ = −I on TpM . Symmetric spaces and their local versions were studied and classified by E.Cartan in the 1920’s. In 1980 D.Ferus [F2] introduced the concept of symmetric submanifolds of Euclidean space: A submanifold M of R is a symmetric submanifold ...
