Abstract: We prove that the general fibre of the $i$-th Gauss map has dimension $m$ if and only if at the general point the $(i+1)$-th fundamental form consists of cones with vertex a fixed $mathbb{P}^{m-1}$, extending a known theorem for the usual Gauss map. We prove this via a recursive formula for expressing higher fundamental forms. We also show some consequences of these results.
