Tadashi NAGANO

We introduced and studied the notions of harmonic metrics and harmonic tensors as well as finding some relationships between harmonic metrics, harmonic tensors, geodesic vector fields, and Gauss map of Euclidean submanifolds.

One purpose of this article is to establish a general method to determine stability of totally geodesic submanifolds of symmetric spaces. The method is used to determine the stability of the basic totally geodesic submanifolds (M_+,M_)--introduced and studied by B.-Y. Chen and T. Nagano in [Totally geodesic submanifolds of symmetric spaces, II, Duke Math. J. 45 (1978), 405-425] as minimal submanifolds. The other purpose is to establish a stability theorem for minimal totally real submanifolds of Kaehlerian manifolds.

... It is well-known in the theory of designs that a finite subset of a sphere is a tight spherical 1-design if and only if it is a pair of antipodal points. On the other hand, antipodal sets and 2-number for a Riemannian manifold are introduced by B.-Y. Chen and T. Nagano [21] in 1982. An antipodal set is called a great antipodal set if its cardinality is equal to the 2-number. ...

... Chen and Nagano [8] proved that a simply connected, irreducible symmetric space admits a totally geodesic hypersurface if and only if it is of constant curvature. Tsukada [27] extended this result to the class of simply connected irreducible naturally reductive homogeneous spaces. ...

Totally geodesic submanifolds of symmetric spaces II

... The problem has been completely solved in the case of the symmetric space G 2 / SO (4). Although some of these submanifolds are missing in the classification by Chen and Nagano in [9], the classification obtained by Sebastian Klein in [18] is complete, based on the reconstruction of the curvature tensor from the Satake diagram previously considered in [16]. Both [9] and [18] are devoted to symmetric spaces of rank 2. We are interested in exceptional symmetric spaces, and, in this topic, the recent reference [20] is relevant and of course it encloses G 2 / SO(4) as a particular case. ...

... Since the discovery byÉ Cartan, symmetric spaces, a distinguished class of Riemannian manifolds, attracted the attention of numerous mathematicians from various fields such as differential geometry, algebraic topology, representation theory and harmonic analysis. [19,24,25,26,27,28]). This theory was also known today as the Chen-Nagano theory in some literatures (see, e.g., [90,91]). ...
