Lagrangian submanifolds of constant sectional curvature and their Ribaucour transformation (Q5952911)

The author constructs explicit examples of non-totally geodesic, Lagrangian immersions of real space forms \(M^n(c)\) in complex space forms \(N^n(c)\) for \(c\neq 0\). The key point of the construction is the possibility of lifting a Lagrangian submanifold to a Lagrangian horizontal submanifold of the total space of the Hopf fibration on \(N^n(c)\). The lifted submanifolds are then shown to correspond to solutions of some system of PDE's. The author next shows that the set of (generalized) Ribaucour transforms of a given horizontal, Lagrangian submanifold of constant sectional curvature contains a family of submanifolds which can be parametrized in terms of a completely integrable linear first order system of PDE's.
