Abstract

This paper is about non-holomorphic isometric immersions of Kaehler manifolds into Euclidean space f ⁣:M2nR2n+pf\colon M^{2n}\to\R^{2n+p}, pn1p\leq n-1, with low codimension p11p\leq 11. In particular, it addresses a conjecture proposed by J. Yan and F. Zheng. The claim that if the index of complex relative nullity of the submanifold satisfies νfc<2n2p\nu_f^c<2n-2p at any point, then f(M)f(M) can be realized as a holomorphic submanifold of a non-holomorphic Kaehler submanifold of R2n+p\R^{2n+p} of larger dimension and some large index of complex relative nullity. This conjecture had previously been confirmed by Dajczer-Gromoll for codimension p=3p=3, and then by Yan-Zheng for p=4p=4. For codimension p11p\leq 11, we already showed that the pointwise structure of the second fundamental form of the submanifold aligns with the anticipated characteristics, assuming the validity of the conjecture. In this paper, we confirm the conjecture until codimension p=6p=6, whereas for codimensions 7p97\leq p\leq 9 it is also possible that the submanifold exhibits a complex ruled structure with rulings of a specific dimension. Moreover, we prove that the claim of the conjecture holds for codimensions 7p117\leq p\leq 11 albeit subject to an additional assumption.
