Immersionen mit paralleler zweiter Fundamentalform: Beispiele und Nicht-Beispiele

  • Dirk Ferus
Article

Abstract

  1. 1.

    We show that symmetric R-spaces can. be imbedded in euclidean space with parallel second fundamental tensor (Dα=0).

     
  2. 2.

    We give a restrictive necessary condition for totally geodesic submanifolds of the Grassmannian to be the Gauss image of an immersion with Dα=0, c.f. [9].
