Minimal submanifolds in \(\mathrm{Sol}_1^4\) (Q6085329)

The paper studies the locally conformal Kähler manifold Sol\(_1^4\) and classifies its minimal holomorphic curves. It is shown that the only minimal surfaces are totally geodesic hyperbolic planes. An example of non-minimal holomorphic curves is provided. There is no minimal totally real surface in Sol\(_1^4\) normal to the Lee field and the only minimal totally real submanifolds tangential to the Lee field are totally geodesic. Three types of minimal proper CR-manifolds with tangential Lee vector field are found in Sol\(_1^4\). Also other results are obtained.
