Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Submanifold theory can be thought of as a generalization of the study of surfaces in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space. In the general theory, both the dimension of the submanifold and the codimension, which is the difference between the dimension of the ambient space and the dimension of the submanifold, can be arbitrarily high, and the ambient space does not need to be flat. A key problem in the theory is to study the relations and the interplay between intrinsic invariants, which only depend on the submanifold as a manifold itself, and extrinsic invariants, which depend on the immersion, i.e., on the shape that the submanifold takes in the ambient space.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

It is well known that the sphere S6(1) admits an almost complex structure J which is nearly Kähler. If M is a hypersurface of an almost Hermitian manifold with a unit normal vector field N, the tangent vector field ξ=JN is said to be characteristic or the Reeb vector field. The Jacobi operator with respect to ξ is called the structure Jacobi operator, and is denoted by l=R(·,ξ)ξ, where R is the curvature tensor on M. The study of Riemannian submanifolds in different ambient spaces by means of their Jacobi operators has been highly active in recent years. In particular, many recent results deal with questions around the existence of hypersurfaces with a structure Jacobi operator that satisfies conditions related to their parallelism. In the present paper, we study the parallelism of the structure Jacobi operator of real hypersurfaces in the nearly Kähler sphere S6(1). More precisely, we prove that such real hypersurfaces do not exist. Full article
