The analysis of manifold valued data using embedding based methods is linked to the problem of finding suitable embeddings. In this paper we are interested in embeddings of quotient manifolds $\mathrm{SO}(3)/\mathcal{S}$ of the rotation…

In this article we show how holomorphic Riemannian geometry can be used to relate certain submanifolds in one pseudo-Riemannian space to submanifolds with corresponding geometric properties in other spaces. In order to do so, we shall first…

We study pseudo-Riemannian Einstein manifolds which are conformally equivalent with a metric product of two pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. Particularly interesting is the case where one of these manifolds is 1-dimensional and the case where…

We obtain a dynamical--topological obstruction for the existence of isometric embedding of a Riemannian manifold-with-boundary $(M,g)$: if the first real homology of $M$ is nontrivial, if the centre of the fundamental group is trivial, and…

We study trapped surfaces from the point of view of local isometric embedding into three-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. When a two-surface is embedded into three-dimensional Euclidean space, the problem of finding all surfaces applicable…

For a compact connected Lie group $G$ acting as isometries on a compact orientable Riemannian manifold $M^{n+1},$ and cohomogeneity not equal to 0 or 2, we prove the existence of a nontrivial embedded $G$-invariant minimal hypersurface,…

We classify all closed, aspherical Riemannian manifolds M whose universal cover has indiscrete isometry group. One sample application is the theorem that any such M with word-hyperbolic fundamental group must be isometric to a negatively…

In the theory of minimal submanifold, the following problem is fundamental: when does a given Riemannian manifold admit (or does not admit) a minimal isometric immersion into an Euclidean space form of arbitrary dimension? A partial…
