Index of compact minimal submanifolds of the Berger spheres

Abstract: The stability and the index of compact minimal submanifolds of the Berger spheres mathbbSau2n+1,,0<auleq1, are studied. Unlike the case of the standard sphere (au=1), where there are no stable compact minimal submanifolds, the Berger spheres have stable ones if and only if au2leq1/2. Moreover, there are no stable compact minimal d-dimensional submanifolds of mathbbSa2n+1u when 1/(d+1)<au2leq1 and the stable ones are classified for au2=1/(d+1) when the submanifold is embedded. Finally, the compact orientable minimal surfaces of mathbbSau3 with index one are classified for 1/3leqau2leq1.
