The first time that the connection between isometric immersion of surfaces and solutions of the Dirac equation appeared in the literature was in the seminal paper of Thomas Friedrich in 1998. In consequence of that, several authors…
Since the first work of Thomas Friedrich showing that isometric immersions of Riemann surfaces are related to spinors and the Dirac equation, various works appeared generalizing this approach to more general Spin-manifolds, in particular…
We give a spinorial characterization of isometrically immersed hypersurfaces into 4-dimensional space forms and product spaces $\M^3(\kappa)\times\R$, in terms of the existence of particular spinor fields, called generalized Killing spinors…
We generalize the spinorial characterization of isometric immersions of surfaces in R^3 given by T. Friedrich (On the spinor representation of surfaces in Euclidean 3-space, J. Geom. Phys. 28 (1998)) to surfaces in S^3 and H^3. The main…
We introduce a family of variational functionals for spinor fields on a compact Riemann surface $M$ that can be used to find close-to-conformal immersions of $M$ into $\mathbb{R}^3$ in a prescribed regular homotopy class. Numerical…
We present a method giving a spinorial characterization of an immersion in a product of spaces of constant curvature. As a first application we obtain a proof using spinors of the fundamental theorem of immersion theory in that spaces. We…
We use a new method to give conditions for the existence of a local isometric immersion of a Riemannian $n$-manifold $M$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+k}$, for a given $n$ and $k$. These equate to the (local) existence of a $k$-tuple of scalar fields…
In this paper we find necessary and sufficient conditions for a nondegenerate arbitrary signature manifold $M^n$ to be realized as a submanifold in the large class of warped product manifolds $\varepsilon…
The spinor representation is developed for conformal immersions of Riemann surfaces into space. We adapt the approach of Dennis Sullivan, which treats a spin structure on a Riemann surface M as a complex line bundle S whose square is the…
We consider spin manifolds with an Einstein metric, either Riemannian or indefinite, for which there exists a Killing spinor. We describe the intrinsic geometry of nondegenerate hypersurfaces in terms of a PDE satisfied by a pair of induced…
We give a loop group formulation for the problem of isometric immersions with flat normal bundle of a simply connected pseudo-Riemannian manifold $M_{c,r}^m$, of dimension $m$, constant sectional curvature $c \neq 0$, and signature $r$,…
We consider submanifolds into Riemannian manifold with metallic structures. We obtain some new results for hypersurfaces in these spaces and we express the fundamental theorem of submanifolds into products spaces in terms of metallic…
We provide an introduction to the old-standing problem of isometric immersions. We combine a historical account of its multifaceted advances, which have fascinated geometers and analysts alike, with some of the applications in the…
This paper is devoted to investigating the isometric immersion problem of Riemannian manifolds in a high codimension. It has recently been demonstrated that any short immersion from an $n$-dimensional smooth compact manifold into…
An isometric immersion $f: M^{n} \rightarrow \tilde M^{m}$ from an $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M^{n}$ into an almost Hermitian manifold $\tilde M^{m}$ of complex dimension $m$ is called pointwise slant if its Wirtinger angles…

We formulate a Boolean algebra in the set of idempotents of Clifford algebra Cl($R^{n,n}$) and within this frame we examine different formulations of the Boolean Satisfiability Problem in Clifford algebra. Exploiting the isomorphism between…
We consider isometric immersions of complete connected Riemannian manifolds into space forms of nonzero constant curvature. We prove that if such an immersion is compact and has semi-definite second fundamental form, then it is an embedding…
We prove that an isometric immersion of a simply connected Lorentzian surface in $\mathbb{R}^{2,2}$ is equivalent to a normalised spinor field solution of a Dirac equation on the surface. Using the quaternions and the Lorentz numbers, we…
