Lagrangian submanifolds of the complex hyperbolic quadric
Abstract
We consider the complex hyperbolic quadric as a complex hypersurface of complex anti-de Sitter space. Shape operators of this submanifold give rise to a family of local almost product structures on , which are then used to define local angle functions on any Lagrangian submanifold of . We prove that a Lagrangian immersion into can be seen as the Gauss map of a spacelike hypersurface of (real) anti-de Sitter space and relate the angle functions to the principal curvatures of this hypersurface. We also give a formula relating the mean curvature of the Lagrangian immersion to these principal curvatures. The theorems are illustrated with several examples of spacelike hypersurfaces of anti-de Sitter space and their Gauss maps. Finally, we classify some families of minimal Lagrangian submanifolds of : those with parallel second fundamental form and those for which the induced sectional curvature is constant. In both cases, the Lagrangian submanifold is forced to be totally geodesic.
