We study a germ of real analytic n-dimensional submanifold of C that has a complex tangent space of maximal dimension at a CR singularity. Under some assumptions, we show its equivalence to a normal form under a local biholomorphism at the singularity. We also show that if a real submanifold is formally equivalent to a quadric, it is actually holomorphically equivalent to it, if a small divisor...

PURPOSE This work is a preliminary study of a stationary cardiac SPECT system. The goal of this research is to propose a stationary cardiac SPECT system using segmented slant-hole collimators and to perform computer simulations to test the feasibility. Compared to the rotational SPECT, a stationary system has a benefit of acquiring temporally consistent projections. The most challenging issue i...

In this work, the notion of a slant helix is extended to the space E. First, we introduce the type-2 harmonic curvatures of a regular curve. Thereafter, by using this, we present some necessary and sufficient conditions for a curve to be a slant helix in Euclidean n-space. We also express some integral characterizations of such curves in terms of the curvature functions. Finally, we give some c...

Given a Lie group acting on a manifold, our aim is to analyze the evolution of differential invariants under invariant submanifold flows. The constructions are based on the equivariant method of moving frames and the induced invariant variational bicomplex. Applications to integrable soliton dynamics, and to the evolution of differential invariant signatures, used in equivalence problems and ob...

A slant immersion is an isometric immersion from a Riemannian manifold into an almost Hermitian manifold with constant Wirtinger angle (1~ . In this article we study and characterize slant surfaces in the complex 2-plane ~2 via the Gauss map. We also prove that every surface without complex tangent points in a 4-dimensional almost Hermitian manifold M is slant with respect to a suitably chosen ...

We define and study the secondary Chern-Euler class for a general submanifold of a Riemannian manifold. Using this class, we define and study index for a vector field with non-isolated singularities on a submanifold. As an application, our studies give conceptual proofs of a classical result of Chern. The objective of this paper is to define, study and use the secondary Chern-Euler class for a ...
