    Riemannian invariants play the most fundamental role in Riemannian geometry. They provide the intrinsic characteristics of Riemannian manifolds; moreover, they affect the behaviour of Riemannian manifolds in general. Classically, among Riemannian curvature invariants the most studied ones were the sectional, Ricci and scalar curvatures. The first author [Jpn. J. Math., New Ser. 26, No. 1, 105--127 (2000; Zbl 1026.53009)] introduced a new type of curvature invariants, denoted \(\delta(n_1, \dots,n_k)\) and called \(\delta\)-invariants (known also as Chen invariants). He proved optimal estimates of the squared mean curvature in terms of these invariants for submanifolds in real space forms. A submanifold satisfying the equality case of such an inequality is said to be ideal. In the paper under review, the authors classify the ideal submanifolds in the Euclidean space \({\mathbb E}^m\), the unit sphere \(S^m\) and hyperbolic space \(H^m(-1)\), respectively, with type number \(\leq 2\).
