Abstract: Let Fn+p(c) be an (n+p)-dimensional simply connected space form with nonnegative constant curvature c. We prove that if Mn(ngeq4) is a compact submanifold in Fn+p(c), and if RicM>(n2)(c+H2), where H is the mean curvature of M, then M is homeomorphic to a sphere. We also show that the pinching condition above is sharp. Moreover, we obtain a new differentiable sphere theorem for submanifolds with positive Ricci curvature.
