Abstract
In this note, we investigate conformally flat submanifolds of Euclidean space with positive index of relative nullity. Let be a complete conformally flat manifold and let be an isometric immersion. We prove the following results: (1) If the index of relative nullity is at least two, then is flat and is a cylinder over a flat submanifold. (2) If the scalar curvature of is non-negative and the index of relative nullity is positive, then is a cylinder over a submanifold with constant non-negative sectional curvature. (3) If the scalar curvature of is non-zero and the index of relative nullity is constant and equal to one, then is a cylinder over a -dimensional submanifold with non-zero constant sectional curvature.
