In this paper we study the embedding of Riemannian manifolds in low codimension. The well-known result of Nash and Kuiper says that any short embedding in codimension one can be uniformly approximated by C1C^1 isometric embeddings. This statement clearly cannot be true for C2C^2 embeddings in general, due to the classi…
