Title: Isoparametric submanifolds in Hilbert space
|
|
Abstract:
A proper Fredholm submanifold M in a separable Hilbert space
is called "isoparametric" if (a) its normal bundle is flat; and (b) the shape
operators along any parallel normal vector field are conjugate.
Standard (homogeneous) examples of such submanifolds
arise essentially as principal orbits of isotropy representations of
affine Kac-Moody symmetric spaces (Terng).
In fact, in codimension different from one Heintze and Liu
proved that M must be homogeneous, but little is known about the
structure of the group which acts transitively on it.
In this talk, we will explain our contribution to the conjecture that
in codimension different from one M must be one of the standard examples.
Namely, we introduce a "homogeneous structure" on M and
use it to prove a rigidity theorem asserting that M
is completely determined by the second fundamental form and its
covariant derivative at one point,
thereby making such submanifolds accessible to classification.
Joint work with Ernst Heintze (Augsburg).

Title:
Invariant envelopes of holomorphy in the complexification of a Hermitian symmetric space
|
|
Abstract:
Let $G/K$ be a noncompact symmetric space and let $G^{\bf c}/K^{\bf c}$ be its Lie group complexification.
Then $G^{\bf c}/K^{\bf c}$ is a Stein manifold where the Lie group $G$ acts by holomorphic transformations.
Basic questions in the study of $G^{\bf c}/K^{\bf c}$ are the classification of invariant Stein subdomains
and the determination of the envelopes of holomorphy of arbitrary invariant subdomains. In general,
such questions have a complete answer only inside a dististinguished $G$-invariant domain containing $G/K$,
namely the complex crown $\Xi\subset G^{\bf c}/K^{\bf c}$. We present some new results in this direction
which hold in the Hermitian case.
We also show how the Cauchy-Riemann structure of the $G$-orbits plays a role in this context.

Title: "On conformal transformations and conformally flat spaces"
|
Abstract:
The conformal transformation on Riemannian manifolds is characterized by Riemannian metrics,
which does not change the angle between two vectors at a point.
In this talk, we are survey to the various conformal transformations and their properties.
Moreover we consider the conformal transformations between complete product Riemannian manifolds,
and conformally flatness in the warped product space or more general space.

Title: "$\mathfrak D$-parallelism of normal and structure Jacobi operators for hypersurfaces in complex two-plane Grassmannians"
|
|
Abstract: In this talk, we introduce notions of normal Jacobi operator and
structure Jacobi operator related to the curvature tensor for
hypersurfaces in complex two-plane Grassmannians $\GBt$ which
consists of all complex two dimensional linear subspaces in ${\Bbb
C}^{m+2}$, respectively. And we give non-existence theorems for Hopf
hypersurfaces in $\GBt$ with ${\mathfrak D}$-parallel normal Jacobi operator and
${\mathfrak D}$-parallel structure Jacobi operator, respectively.

Title: "Classification of real hypersurfaces with Reeb parallel shape operator in Complex two-plane Grassmannians"
|
|
Abstract:
In this paper we consider a new notion of Reeb parallel shape
operator for real hypersurface $M$ in complex two-plane
Grassmannian $\GBt$. When $M$ has the Reeb parallel shape operator
and non-vanishing geodesic Reeb flow, it becomes a real hypersurface
of Type~$(A)$ with exactly four distinct constant principal
curvatures.

Title: "A Real hypersurface in complex two-plane Grassmannians with g-Tanaka-Webster recurrent shape operator" |
|
Abstract:
It is known that submanifolds in Kaehler manifolds have many kinds of connections.
Among them, we introduce a new connection named generalized Tanaka-Webster (in short, g-Tanaka-Webster)
connection for real hypersurfaces in complex two-plane Grassmannians $\GBt$.
In this talk, we consider a new notion of recurrent hypersurfaces in $\GBt$ for g-Tanaka-Webster connection and
give a non-existence theorem for a Hopf hypersurface in $\GBt$ with g-Tanaka-Webster recurrent shape operator.

in complex two-plane Grassmannians"
|
|
Abstract:
In this talk, we introduce new notions of Lie invariant shape operator for a real hypersurface in complex two-plane Grassmannian $\GBt$, and give
classifications for Hopf hypersurfaces in $\GBt$ with Lie invariant shape operators in the generalized Tanaka-Webster connection.

Title:
A Klein-Cartan programme for differential equations and extrinsic geometries in flag manifolds
|
|
Abstract: In 1872 Klein declared the Erlangen programme to understand various geometries
in a unified manner via transformation groups as homogeneous spaces, then in 1920's Cartan
invented the notion of espace g\'en\'eralis\'e (principal bundle with Cartan connection in modern terminology)
to treat still group theoretically not only the homogeneous spaces but also inhomogeneous
spaces such as Riemannian geometries, conformal or projective differential geometries.
With modern approaches to general equivalence problems of geometric structures we have now
a general transparent view to intrinsic geometries.
In this talk we propose a Klein Cartan programme for differential equations in the framework of nilpotent
geometry and analysis.
In particular, we show a categorical correspondence between integrable overdetermined systems of
linear partial differential equations and submanifolds in flag manifolds.
We then have a general method to find the invariants of a submanifold in a flag manifold,
based on an algebraic harmonic theory and the moving frame method, in the case when the relevant Lie algebra is semi-simple.

Title:
Certain kind of isoparametric submanifolds in symmetric spaces of non-compact type and Hermann actions
|
|
Abstract: In this talk, we state that full irreducible curvature-adapted isoparametric
real analytic submanifolds of codimension greater than one in a symmetric
space $G/K$ of non-compact type are principal orbits of Hermann actions on
$G/K$ under certain condition.
In the proof, it is key to show the homogeneity of the lift of
the complexification of the original submanifold to an infinite dimensional
anti-Kaehler space through an anti-Kaehler submersion.

Title:
Antipodal sets in compact Riemannian symmetric spaces
|
|
Abstract:
There is a symmetry at each point in a Riemannian symmetric space.
An antipodal set is a subset where the restriction of the symmetry
at each point is the identity, which was introduced by Chen and
Nagano.
A set of two antipodal points (in a usual sense) in a sphere is
a typical example of antipodal sets.
A maximal antipodal set is a kind of frame of a compact Riemannian
symmetric space.
In this talk I mainly explain antipodal sets in symmetric
R-spaces and oriented real Grassmann manifolds.

Title:
The geometry of orbits of Hermann actions
|
|
Abstract:
The isotropy actions of compact symmetric spaces are
typical examples of Hermann actions.
Hermann actions have nice properties.
For example these are hyperpolar actions and also variational complete
actions.
We study the orbits of Hermann actions.
In order to do this, we introduce a notion of a symmetric triad, which
is a generalization of an irreducible root system.

Title: On the moduli space of left-invariant metrics on a Lie group
|
|
Abstract:
We introduce the space of left-invariant metrics on a Lie group
up to isometry and scaling, the moduli space.
This moduli space derives a Milnor-type theorem,
a generalization of the Milnor frame for three-dimensional unimodular Lie groups.
Our Milnor-type theorem is useful to examine
the existence and the nonexistence of
a distinguished left-invariant metric, such as Einstein and Ricci soliton.
In this talk, we explain the above mentioned framework of our study
by describing some explicit examples.
We will also mention a pseudo-Riemannian version.

Title: Special Lagrangian submanifolds in the complex shpere and the complex cone
|
|
Abstract:
In 1993 Stenzel constructed Calabi-Yau metrics on the cotangent bundles of compact rank one symmetric spaces.
As the limit of the Stenzel metric on the cotangent bundle of the sphere,
where we call it the complex shpere, we can obtain a (singular) Calabi-Yau metric on the complex cone.
In this talk, I would like to demonstrate two methods to construct special Lagrangian submanifolds
in the complex shpere and the complex cone.
One is the conormal bundle construction, and the other is the moment map technique.

Title:
On $G_2$ moduli of curves in purely imaginary octonions
|
|
Abstract:
In this talk, first we explain the $G_2$-congruence theorem
and give the interesting example of curves in purely imaginary octonions.
Usually, the $SO(7)$-invariants of the curves in $\textbf{R}^7$
are obtained by a standard Frenet Serret formula.
Note that the $G_2$-invariants are $SO(7)$-invariants
but the converse is not true.
We explain this phenomenon.
Also we give the candidate of $G_2$ moduli
of curves in purely imaginary octonions.

Title: Isometries of Hermitian symmetric spaces
|
|
Abstract:
This is my joint work with Jost-Hinrich Eschenburg and Peter
Quast. We consider the following problem. Let $P$ be a Riemannian
symmetric space and $G$ its symmetry group, that is, the subgroup of the
full isometry group which is genetrated by all geodesic symmetries. Let
$\iota : p \to V$ be an isometric $G$-equivariant embedding into some
Euclidian space $V$.
Hence any $g \in G$ extends to a linear isometry of $V$. But what happens
to those isometries of $P$ which are not contained in $G$? Do they also
extend to linear isometries of the ambient space?
We obtained the affirmative answer to the problem when $P$ is a semisimple
Hermitian symmetric space. In this talk I will explain our result and
refer to some related topics.

Title:
Low-dimensional solvsolitons and the minimality of the corresponding submanifolds
|
|
Abstract:
The notion of the corresponding submanifolds to left-invariant
Riemannian metrics on Lie groups is defined through the study on the
space of left-invariant Riemannian metrics on a Lie group.
Our interest is to characterize a geometric property of left-invariant
Riemannian metrics in terms of the corresponding submanifolds.
In this talk, we introduce the relationship between the existence of
solvsolitons on low-dimensional solvable Lie groups and the minimality
of the corresponding submanifolds.

Title:
Homogeneous Ricci soliton hypersurfaces in the complex hyperbolic spaces
|
|
Abstract:
A Lie hypersurface in the complex hyperbolic space is a homogeneous real
hypersurface without focal submanifolds. In this talk, I will present
classification results of Ricci soliton Lie hypersurfaces in the complex
hyperbolic space. This is a joint work with Takahiro Hashinaga and
Hiroshi Tamaru.
