Cayley submanifolds of Calabi-Yau 4-folds
Abstract
Our main results are: (1) The complex a Lagrangian points of a non-complex Lagrangian -dimensional submanifold , immersed with parallel mean curvature and with equal Kaehler angles into a Kaehler-Einstein manifold of complex dimension , are zeros of finite order of and respectively, where is the common -Kaelher angle. (2) If is a Cayley submanifold of a Calabi-Yau (CY) manifold of complex dimension 4, then is naturally isomorphic to . (3) If is Ricci-flat (not necessarily CY) and is a Cayley submanifold, then still holds, but may describe a residue on the -complex points, in the sense of Harvey and Lawson. We describe this residue by a PDE on a natural morphism , , with singularities at the complex points. We give an explicit formula of this residue in a particular case. When is an hyper-Kaehler manifold and is an -complex closed 4-submanifold, the first Weyl curvature invariant of may be described as a residue on the -Kaehler angle at the _Lagrangian points by a Lelong-Poincar\'{e} type formula. We study the almost complex structure on induced by .

v1: Plain LaTeX, 60 pages. v2, 48 pages: This is a quite modified version of the first one. The residue formula in the first version was not complete, for we used a degenerated metric. We complete it now, using a different path, and some formulas in math.DG/0412389. We explicit the residue in a particular case and correct some minor errors. We dedicate this hard computation to Jim Eells
