Submanifolds of Frobenius manifolds are studied. In particular, so-called natural submanifolds are defined and, for semi-simple Frobenius manifolds, classified. These carry the structure of a Frobenius algebra on each tangent space, but will, in general, be curved. The induced curvature is studied, a main result being that these natural submanifolds carry a induced pencil of compatible metrics....

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...

In general, not much is known about minimal submanifolds of Euclidean space of high codimension. In [1], Anderson studies complete minimal submanifolds of Euclidean space with finite total scalar curvature, trying to generalize classical results of minimal surfaces. More recently, Moore [10] continues the study of this kind of minimal submanifolds. Harvey and Lawson [6] also study a particular ...

In this article, the totally geodesic submanifolds in the complex 2Grassmannian G2(C) and in the quaternionic 2-Grassmannian G2(H) are classified. It turns out that for both of these spaces, the earlier classification of maximal totally geodesic submanifolds in Riemannian symmetric spaces of rank 2 published by Chen and Nagano (1978) is incomplete. For example, G2(H) with n ≥ 5 contains totally...

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...

We introduce an invariant of umbilic points on surfaces in the Euclidean or Minkowski 3-space that counts maximum number stable they can split up under deformations surfaces. call multiplicity point and establish its properties.

In this paper we introduce harmonic Lagrangian submanifolds in general Kähler manifolds, which generalize special Lagrangian submanifolds in Calabi-Yau manifolds. We will use the deformation theory of harmonic Lagrangian submanifolds in Kähler manifolds to construct minimal Lagrangian torus in certain Kähler-Einstein manifolds with negative first Chern class.

In this paper, the geometry of F -invariant CR-submanifolds of a Kaehlerian product manifold is studied. Fundamental properties of this type submanifolds are investigated such as CR-product, D⊥-totally geodesic and mixed geodesic submanifold. Finally, we have researched totally-umbilical F -invariant proper CR-submanifolds and CR-products in a Kaehlerian product manifold M = M1(c1)×M2(c2) M.S.C...
