Abstract: In this paper, we study some classes of submanifolds of codimension one and two in the Page space. These submanifolds are totally geodesic. We also compute their curvature and show that some of them are constant curvature spaces. Finally we give information on how the Page space is related to some other metrics on the same underlying smooth manifold.


A Page space is, roughly speaking, \(S^3 \times [0,\pi]\), endowed with a specific Einstein-Hermitian metric (similar to a warped product one). The authors study families of surfaces and of hypersurfaces in Page spaces, some of which are totally geodesic. An adapted system of coordinates is used and an interesting discusion of the possible curvature values for the submanifolds is presented. Connections with the Yamabe problem on Page spaces are included, via their scalar curvature.
