Description
Book SynopsisSeveral relevant classes of submanifolds are also discussed, including constant curvature submanifolds, submanifolds of nonpositive extrinsic curvature, conformally flat submanifolds and real Kaehler submanifolds.
Trade Review“I can recommend this book to anyone interested in submanifold theory: from students with a background in basic Riemannian geometry to experienced researchers in the field.” (Joeri Van der Veken, Mathematical Reviews, January, 2021)
