Review text

In [Bull. Inst. Math. Acad. Sin. 21, 1-34 (1994)] the reviewer proved that the set of all transversal immersions in Euclidean spaces of a given Riemannian manifold, provided with direct sum and tensor product, defines a commutative semiring. In [Beitr. Algebra Geom. 34, No. 2, 209-215 (1993; Zbl 0788.53047)] \textit{F. Decruyenaere, F. Dillen, L. Verstraelen} and \textit{L. Vrancken} proved that the set \(\mathcal T\) of all transversal immersions of all differentiable manifolds in Euclidean spaces, provided with the binary operations direct sum and tensor product, forms a commutative semiring. In this paper, the authors investigate the similar problem for spherical immersions and obtain further results in this direction. Among others, they prove that the set of all isometric equivariant transversal immersions of all compact homogeneous Riemannian manifolds induces a semiring of \(\mathcal T\) and the set of all minimal spherical isometric immersions of all Riemannian manifolds into a unit sphere is a subsemigroup of \(\mathcal T\).
