A complete classification of Blaschke parallel submanifolds with vanishing Möbius form

Publication:1700709





The Blaschke tensor and the Möbius form are two of the fundamental invariants in the Möbius geometry of submanifolds; and an umbilic-free immersed submanifold in real space forms is called Blaschke parallel if its Blaschke tensor is parallel. For hypersurfaces a certain classification theorem has been established in [\textit{X. Li} and \textit{F. Zhang}, Tohoku Math. J. (2) 58, No. 4, 581--597 (2006; Zbl 1135.53309)]. Section 2 contains the necessary knowledge of the Möbius geometry of submanifolds in the unit sphere. Section 3 presents some new typical examples which have parallel Blaschke tensor and vanishing Möbius form. Section 4 aims to prove the main result (Theorem 1.2) of this paper, which, together with the known classification result [\textit{H. Liu} et al., Tohoku Math. J. (2) 53, No. 4, 553--569 (2001; Zbl 1014.53010)] for Möbius isotropic submanifolds, successfully establishes a complete classification of the Blaschke parallel submanifolds in \(S^n\) with vanishing Möbius form (Theorem 1.3). In Section 5, the authors list two problems related with the methods of the paper.
