New biharmonic submanifolds found in complex projective spaces.

We show that a totally geodesic submanifold of a symmetric space satisfying certain conditions admits an extension to a minimal submanifold of dimension one higher, and we apply this result to construct new examples of complete embedded minimal submanifolds in simply connected noncompact globally symmetric spaces.

The paper constructs submanifolds with corners in Delzant polytopes from affine subspaces.

We develop a complete local theory for CR embedded submanifolds of CR manifolds in a way which parallels the Ricci calculus for Riemannian submanifold theory. In particular, we establish the subtle relationship between the submanifold and ambient standard tractor bundles, allowing us to relate the respective normal Car…

The paper normalizes Poisson saturation of coregular submanifolds.

Researchers describe a specific type of submanifolds in Euclidean space.

By the Fox's re-embedding theorem, any compact submanifold of the 3-sphere can be re-embedded in the 3-sphere so that it is unknotted. It is unknown whether the Fox's re-embedding can be replaced with twistings. In this paper, we will show that any closed 2-manifold embedded in the 3-sphere can be unknotted by twisting…

New submanifolds found in toric manifolds with specific actions.

Novel coarse extrinsic curvature for Riemannian submanifolds.

In an $n$-manifold $X$ each element of $H_{n-1}(X; \mathbb{Z}_2)$ can be represented by an embedded codimension-1 submanifold. Hence for any two such submanifolds there is a third one that represents the sum of their homology classes. We construct such a representative explicitly. We describe the analogous construction…

In this paper we prove the existence of families of n-dimensional complete embedded minimal submanifolds of C^n with a prescribed configuration of k>1 asymptotic planes. These submanifolds are obtained by desingularizing the intersection of the asymptotes, using a gluing theorem applied to a generalization of a special…

Generalizes holographic method to higher codimension submanifolds.

Every closed, oriented, real analytic Riemannian 3-manifold can be isometrically embedded as a special Lagrangian submanifold of a Calabi-Yau 3-fold, even as the real locus of an antiholomorphic, isometric involution. Every closed, oriented, real analytic Riemannian 4-manifold whose bundle of self-dual 2-forms is trivi…

Study relationships between submanifolds and ambient Kahler 4-manifolds' fundamental groups.

Local model for Poisson manifolds around submanifolds.

This paper is an overview of the idea of using contact geometry to construct invariants of immersions and embeddings. In particular, it discusses how to associate a contact manifold to any manifold and a Legendrian submanifold to an embedding or immersion. We then discuss recent work that creates invariants of immersio…

Paper equates torsions on wedge singularities.

We construct smooth families of compact special Lagrangian submanifolds embedded in some toric hyper-K\"ahler manifolds, which never become holomorphic Lagrangian submanifolds via any hyper-Kähler rotations. These families converge to special Lagrangian immersions with self-intersection points in the sense of current…

We use Donaldson's approximately holomorphic techniques to build embeddings of a closed symplectic manifold with symplectic form of integer class in the grassmannians Gr(r,N). We assure that these embeddings are asymptotically holomorphic in a precise sense. We study first the particular case of embeddings in the proje…

New symplectic barriers found in ball embeddings.

New condition ensures submanifolds are skew in small areas.

Dual pairs constructed for volume preserving diffeomorphisms using symplectic geometry.

We prove a transversality "lifting property" for compactified configuration spaces as an application of the multijet transversality theorem: the submanifold of configurations of points on an arbitrary submanifold of Euclidean space may be made transverse to any submanifold of the configuration space of points in Euclid…

Diffeological submanifolds are a new type of submanifold in manifold theory.

We show that every spherical 2-Dupin submanifold that is not a hypersurface is conformally congruent to the standard embedding of the real, complex, quaternionic or octonionic projective plane. We also classify 2-CPC, 2-umbilical and weakly 2-umbilical submanifolds in space forms.

Two codimension-one submanifolds are cobordant if they have the same homology class.

Develops tensor calculus for submanifolds of arbitrary codimension.

We consider existence and uniqueness of two kinds of coisotropic embeddings and deduce the existence of deformation quantizations of certain Poisson algebras of basic functions. First we show that any submanifold of a Poisson manifold satisfying a certain constant rank condition sits coisotropically inside some larger …

This paper proves the manifold hypothesis for lower embedding dimensions using osculating hyperspheres.

Lying at the intersection of Ado's theorem and the Nash embedding theorem, we consider the problem of finding faithful representations of Lie groups which are simultaneously isometric embeddings. Such special maps are found for a certain class of solvable Lie groups which includes all Einstein and Ricci soliton solvman…

Given two Fuchsian representations $ρ_l$ and $ρ_r$ of the fundamental group of a closed oriented surface $S$ of genus $\geq 2$, we study the relation between Lagrangian submanifolds of $M_ρ=(\mathbb{H}^2/ρ_l(π_1(S)))\times (\mathbb{H}^2/ρ_r(π_1(S)))$ and $ρ$-equivariant embeddings $σ$ of $\widetilde S$ into Anti-de Sit…

A contact stationary Legendrian submanifold of $S^{2n+1}$ is a Legendrian submanifold whose volume is stationary under contact deformations. The simplest contact stationary Legendrian submanifold (actually minimal and Legendrian) is the real, equatorial $n$-sphere $S_0$. This paper develops a method for constructing co…

Using the Cartan-Kahler theory, and results on real algebraic structures, we prove two embedding theorems. First, the interior of a smooth, compact 3-manifold may be isometrically embedded into a G_2-manifold as an associative submanifold. Second, the interior of a smooth, compact 4-manifold K, whose double has a trivi…

In this note we prove a Weierstrass representation formula for pluriminimal submanifolds of euclidean spaces. We use this formula to produce new families of examples of pluriminimal submanifolds. We also prove that any affine algebraic manifold can be pluriminimally embedded into some euclidean space in a non holomorph…

We present conditions on the Ricci curvature for complete, oriented, minimal submanifolds of Euclidean space, as well as the standard unit sphere, when the Gauss maps are bounded embeddings.

The square-peg problem is solved using configuration spaces and multijet transversality.

It is proved that the moduli space of all connected compact orientable embedded minimal affine Lagrangian submanifolds of a complex equiaffine space constitutes an infinite dimensional Frechet manifold (if it is not the empty set). The moduli space of all connected compact orientable metric Lagrangian embedded surfaces…

This paper proves several natural generalizations of the theorem that for a generic, $C^k$ Riemannian metric on a smooth manifold, there are no closed, embedded, minimal submanifolds with nontrivial jacobi fields.

We prove the vanishing of the first Chern class of a codimension 2 closed contact submanifold of a cooriented contact manifold with trivial integral 2-dimensional cohomology group. Hence the first Chern class is an obstruction for the existence of codimension 2 contact embeddings in a Darboux chart. For the existence o…

Exotic submanifolds in 4-manifolds remain exotic after stabilizations.

This paper is devoted to the study of the embeddings of a complex submanifold $S$ inside a larger complex manifold $M$; in particular, we are interested in comparing the embedding of $S$ in $M$ with the embedding of $S$ as the zero section in the total space of the normal bundle $N_S$ of $S$ in $M$. We explicitely desc…

Signals are submanifolds; bounds on energy calculated.

In this note we define the notion of collarable slices of Lagrangian submanifolds. Those are slices of Lagrangian submanifolds which can be isotoped through Lagrangian submanifolds to a cylinder over a Legendrian embedding near a contact hypersurface. Such a notion arises naturally when studying intersections of Lagran…
