Helical submanifolds have been studied earlier by K. Sakamoto, K. Tsukada, D. Ferus and S. Schirrmacher as submanifolds for which every geodesic has constant Frenet curvatures in the ambient Euclidean spaces. This property is reduced by the author to the geodesics passing through some fixed point, only leading to pointed helical submanifolds. The author's main result is that in codimension 2 a complete helical submanifold at \(p\) must be an affine subspace, a round sphere or a Blaschke manifold at \(p\).
