Conformally Flat Submanifolds in Spheres and Integrable Systems
É. Cartan proved that conformally flat hypersurfaces in Sn+1 for n > 3 have at most two distinct principal curvatures and locally envelop a one-parameter family of (n − 1)-spheres. We prove that the Gauss-Codazzi equation for conformally flat hypersurfaces in S4 is a soliton equation, and use a dressing action from soliton theory to construct geometric Ribaucour transforms of these hypersurface...
متن کاملOn Normally Flat Einstein Submanifolds
The purpose of this paper is to study the second fundamental form of some submanifolds M in Euclidean spaces E" which have flat normal connection. As such, Theorem gives precise expressions for the (essentially 2) Weingarten maps of all 4-dimensional Emstem submanifolds in E6, which are specialized in Corollary 2 to the Rcciflat submanifolds. The main part ofthis paper deals with fiat submanifo...
متن کاملKaluza-klein Reduction of Conformally Flat Spaces
A “conformal tensor” is constructed from the metric tensor gMN (or Vielbein e A M ) and is invariant against Weyl rescaling gMN → egMN (or eM → eeM ). Moreover, it vanishes if and only if the space is conformally flat, gMN = e ηMN (or e A M = eδ M ). In dimension four or greater the conformal tensor is the Weyl tensor. In three dimensions the Weyl tensor vanishes identically, while the Cotton t...
متن کاملTwistors in Conformally Flat Einstein Four-manifolds
Abstract. This paper studies the two-component spinor form of massive spin2 potentials in conformally flat Einstein four-manifolds. Following earlier work in the literature, a nonvanishing cosmological constant makes it necessary to introduce a supercovariant derivative operator. The analysis of supergauge transformations of primary and secondary potentials for spin 3 2 shows that the gauge fre...
