Surfaces with parallel mean curvature vector in complex space forms

Abstract

We consider a quadratic form defined on the surfaces with parallel mean curvature vector of an any dimensional complex space form and prove that its (2,0)(2,0)-part is holomorphic. When the complex dimension of the ambient space is equal to 22 we define a second quadratic form with the same property and then determine those surfaces with parallel mean curvature vector on which the (2,0)(2,0)-parts of both of them vanish. We also provide a reduction of codimension theorem and prove a non-existence result for 22-spheres with parallel mean curvature vector.
