Closed Conformal Vector Fields and Lagrangian Submanifolds in Complex Space Forms

چکیده
We study a wide family of Lagrangian submanifolds in nonflat complex space forms that we will call pseudoumbilical because of their geometric properties. They are determined by admitting a closed and conformal vector field X such that X is a principal direction of the shape operator AJX , being J the complex structure of the ambient manifold. We emphasize the case X = JH, where H is the mean curvature vector of the immersion, which are known as Lagrangian submanifolds with conformal Maslov form. In this family we offer different global characterizations of the Whitney spheres in the complex projective and hyperbolic spaces.

متن کاملUmbilicity of (Space-Like) Submanifolds of Pseudo-Riemannian Space Forms
We study umbilic (space-like) submanifolds of pseudo-Riemannian space forms, then define totally semi-umbilic space-like submanifold of pseudo Euclidean space and relate this notion to umbilicity. Finally we give characterization of total semi-umbilicity for space-like submanifolds contained in pseudo sphere or pseudo hyperbolic space or the light cone.A pseudo-Riemannian submanifold M in (a...
متن کاملSpin geometry of Kähler manifolds and the Hodge Laplacian on minimal Lagrangian submanifolds
From the existence of parallel spinor fields on CalabiYau, hyper-Kähler or complex flat manifolds, we deduce the existence of harmonic differential forms of different degrees on their minimal Lagrangian submanifolds. In particular, when the submanifolds are compact, we obtain sharp estimates on their Betti numbers. When the ambient manifold is Kähler-Einstein with positive scalar curvature, and...
متن کاملMinimal Lagrangian submanifolds in the complex hyperbolic space
In this paper we construct new examples of minimal Lagrangian submanifolds in the complex hyperbolic space with large symmetry groups, obtaining three 1-parameter families with cohomogeneity one. We characterize them as the only minimal Lagrangian submanifolds in CHn foliated by umbilical hypersurfaces of Lagrangian subspaces RHn of CHn. Several suitable generalizations of the above constructio...
متن کاملComplex Extensors and Lagrangian Submanifolds in Complex Euclidean Spaces
Lagrangian //-umbilical submanifolds are the "simplest" Lagrangian submanifolds next to totally geodesic ones in complex-space-forms. The class of Lagrangian //-umbilical submanifolds in complex Euclidean spaces includes Whitney's spheres and Lagrangian pseudo-spheres. For each submanifold M of Euclidean «-space and each unit speed curve F in the complex plane, we introduce the notion of the co...
