We introduce the notion of biconservative hypersurfaces, that is hypersurfaces with conservative stress-energy tensor with respect to the bienergy. We give the (local) classification of biconservative surfaces in 3-dimensional space forms.
Biharmonic hypersurfaces in a generic conformally flat space are studied in this paper. The equation of such hypersurfaces is derived and is used to determine the conformally flat metric $f^{-2}\delta_{ij}$ on the Euclidean space…
Our paper is an attempt to to verify the Chen's conjecture on biharmonic submanifolds and to classify biconservative submanifolds. In doing so we provide an affirmative answer to Chen's conjecture on biharmonic submanifolds. We prove that…

An isometric immersion $X: \Sigma^n \longrightarrow \mathbb{E}^{n+1}$ is biharmonic if $\Delta^2 X = 0$, i.e. if $\Delta H =0$, where $\Delta$ and $H$ are the metric Laplacian and the mean curvature vector field of $\Sigma^n$ respectively.…

Biconservative surfaces are surfaces with divergence-free stress-bienergy tensor. Simply connected, complete, non-$CMC$ biconservative surfaces in $3$-dimensional space forms were constructed working in extrinsic and intrinsic ways. Then,…

A submanifold $M$ of a Euclidean $m$-space is said to be biharmonic if $\Delta \overrightarrow H=0$ holds identically, where $\overrightarrow H$ is the mean curvature vector field and $\Delta$ is the Laplacian on $M$. In 1991, the author…
