Abstract:

‎Based on a definition for circle in Finsler space‎, ‎recently proposed by one of the present authors and Z‎. ‎Shen‎, ‎a natural definition of extrinsic sphere in Finsler geometry is given and it is shown that a connected submanifold of a Finsler manifold is totally umbilical and has non-zero parallel mean curvature vector field‎, ‎if and only if its circles coincide with circles of the ambient manifold‎. Finally‎, ‎some examples of extrinsic sphere in Finsler geometry‎, ‎particularly in Randers spaces are given.

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...

On Totally Umbilical Hypersurfaces of Weakly Projective Symmetric Spaces

The object of the present paper is to study the totally umbilical hypersurfaces of weakly projective symmetric spaces and it is shown that the totally umbilical hypersurfaces of weakly projective symmetric space is also a weakly projective symmetric space.

Almost quaternionic integral submanifolds and totally umbilic integral submanifolds

In literature (Kobayashi and Nomizu, 1963, 1969; Yano and Ako, 1972; Ishihara, 1974; Özdemir, 2006; Alagöz et al., 2012), almost complex and almost quaternionic structures have been investigated widely. These structures are special structures on the tangent bundle of a manifold. A detailed review can be found in Kirichenko and Arseneva (1997). Let us recall some basic facts and definitions from...

Classification of Totally Umbilical CR-Statistical Submanifolds in Holomorphic Statistical Manifolds with Constant Holomorphic Curvature

In 1985, Amari [1] introduced an interesting manifold, i.e., statistical manifold in the context of information geometry. The geometry of such manifolds includes the notion of dual connections, called conjugate connections in affine geometry, it is closely related to affine geometry. A statistical structure is a generalization of a Hessian one, it connects Hessian geometry. In the present paper...
