We prove a converse to well-known results by E. Cartan and J. D. Moore. Let $f\colon M^n_c\to\Q^{n+p}_{\tilde c}$ be an isometric immersion of a Riemannian manifold with constant sectional curvature $c$ into a space form of curvature…

A basic question in submanifold theory is whether a given isometric immersion $f\colon M^n\to\R^{n+p}$ of a Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$ into Euclidean space with low codimension $p$ admits, locally or globally, a genuine…

We study non-positively curved closed manifolds $M$ and $n$-dimensional totally geodesic submanifolds of $M \times M$ which satisfy a transversality condition. We prove that, under some mild irreducibility requirements on $M$, if $M \times…

Every open manifold L of dimension greater than one has complete Riemannian metrics g with bounded geometry such that (L,g) is not quasi-isometric to a leaf of a codimension one foliation of a closed manifold. Hence no conditions on the…

A conformal transformation of a semi-Riemannian manifold is essential if there is no conformally equivalent metric for which it is an isometry. For Riemannian manifolds the existence of an essential conformal transformation forces the…
