On extremal semi-Riemannian submanifolds (Q1373428): Difference between revisions

The author establishes a formula on the second variation of the volume functional for a submanifold of a semi-Riemannian manifold. In particular, it is proved that a semi-Riemannian submanifold cannot be extremal, unless it is both definite and codefinite.
