Review text

A survey on parallel immersions into Euclidean spaces is given, like they have been introduced by \textit{H. Farran} and \textit{S. A. Robertson} [J. Lond. Math. Soc. (2) 35, 527-538 (1987; Zbl 0623.53022)]. Main attention is paid by the author to what she calls the push-out of the immersion, which describes the region in Euclidean space where parallel transfer of normals along the immersion does not meet focal points at corresponding bases. Some statements about the topological and geometrical character of these push-outs are made. Details can be found in a preprint by \textit{S. Carter} and \textit{A. West} [The push-out region of an immersed manifold. Univ. of Leeds Preprint Series 1998, No. 29]. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0942.00032].
