Totally geodesic submanifolds of symmetric spaces, II

Bang‐Yen Chen, Tadashi Nagano

Open publisher page 185 citations

Abstract

One purpose of this article is to establish a general method to determine stability of totally geodesic submanifolds of symmetric spaces. The method is used to determine the stability of the basic totally geodesic submanifolds M+,M introduced and studied by Chen and Nagano in (Totally geodesic submanifolds of symmetric spaces, II, Duke Math. J. 45 (1978), 405-425) as minimal submanifolds. The other purpose is to establish a stability theorem for minimal totally real sub- manifolds of Kahlerian manifolds.
