Scalar curvature of a class of minimal submanifolds in rank 1 symmetric spaces

Abstract

In this paper, we give some rigidity theorems which concern with compact minimal coisotropic submanifolds in ℂPⁿ, compact minimal quaternionic coisotropic submanifolds in ℚPⁿ and compact minimal hypersurfaces in P² (Cay).

Keywords

Rank 1 symmetric space / minimal submanifold / coisotropic / scalar curvature / rigidity
