Holomorphic curvature of complex Finsler submanifolds (Q963694)

The author studies the geometry of complex Finsler submanifolds with respect to the Rund connection [for similar results using the Chern-Finsler connection see \textit{G. Munteanu}, Period. Math. Hung. 55, No.~1, 97--112 (2007; Zbl 1164.53021)]. In particular, he shows that the holomorphic curvature of the Rund connection of a complex Finsler submanifold coincides with the holomorphic curvature of the connection induced by the ambient Rund connection, and that it is not greater than the holomorphic curvature computed in the ambient manifold. Furthermore, he also obtains a characterization of totally geodesic submanifolds of complex Finsler manifolds of constant holomorphic curvature. The proofs are mainly based on the Gauss, Codazzi and Ricci equations for the submanifold. It should be remarked that the definition of holomorphic curvature used by the author is slightly different from the definition of holomorphic curvature used for the Chern-Finsler connection; however, he also gives a formula relating this alternative holomorphic curvature (always with respect to the Rund connection) computed in the ambient manifold and computed in the submanifold.
