    In [Proc. Lond. Math. Soc. (3) 85, No. 1, 211--232 (2002; Zbl 1028.53057)], \textit{M. Dajczer} and \textit{R. Tojeiro} studied the scalar Ribaucour transformation for submanifolds of constant sectional curvature which is an extension of the classical Ribaucour transformation. This paper generalizes this idea further to a linear operator \(L\) of a vector space \(V\), called \(L\)- Ribaucour transformation. There are several results obtained in this paper concerning the \(L\)-transformation. The authors provide a decomposition theorem generalizing the permutability formula for the Ribaucour transformation of surfaces of constant curvature in \(\mathbf{E}^3\). This also yields new submanifolds of constant sectional submanifolds. Furthermore, using the Hopf fibration \(\pi:\mathbf{S}_{\epsilon}^{2n+1}(c)\rightarrow \tilde{M}^{n}(4c)\) and an operator \(P\) of a vector space \(V\), called \(P\)-transformation, they provide a family of \(n\)-dimensional flat Lagrangian submanifolds of \(\mathbb{C}^{n}\) and \(n\)-dimensional horizontal submanifolds with constant curvature \(c\) of \(\mathbf{S}_{\epsilon}^{2n+1}(c)\) by solving a vector-valued solution to a linear system of partial differential equations. They obtain a reduction for the \(P\)-transformation, and a corresponding decomposition and Bianchi-cube theorem. At the end of this paper, there exists an example showing the procedure of the work.
