Abstract

We consider a priori estimates of Weyl's embedding problem of (S2,g)(\mathbb{S}^2, g) in general 33-dimensional Riemannian manifold (N3,gˉ)(N^3, \bar g). We establish interior C2C^2 estimate under natural geometric assumption. Together with a recent work by Li and Wang, we obtain an isometric embedding of (S2,g)(\mathbb{S}^2,g) in Riemannian manifold. In addition, we reprove Weyl's embedding theorem in space form under the condition that gC2g\in C^2 with D2gD^2g Dini continuous.
