Abstract

In this article, we study minimal isometric immersions of K\"ahler manifolds into product of two real space forms. We analyse the obstruction conditions to the existence of pluriharmonic isometric immersions of a K\"ahler manifold into those spaces and we prove that the only ones into Sm1×R\mathbb{S}^{m-1}\times\mathbb{R} and Hm1×R\mathbb{H}^{m-1}\times \mathbb{R} are the minimal isometric immersions of Riemannian surfaces. Futhermore, we show that the existence of a minimal isometric immersion of a K\"ahler manifold M2nM^{2n} into Sm1×R\mathbb{S}^{m-1}\times\mathbb{R} and Smk×Hk\mathbb{S}^{m-k}\times \mathbb{H}^k imposes strong restrictions on the Ricci and scalar curvatures of M2nM^{2n}. In this direction, we characterise some cases as either isometric immersions with parallel second fundamental form or anti-pluriharmonic isometric immersions.
