On Wintgen ideal submanifolds satisfying some pseudo-symmetry type curvature conditions

Abstract

Let M be a Wintgen ideal submanifold of dimension n in a real space form R^{n+m}(k) of dimension (n+m) and of constant curvature k, n > 3, m = 1 or m > 1. Let g, R, Ricc, g /\ Ricc and C be the metric tensor, the Riemann-Christoffel curvature tensor, the Ricci tensor, the Kulkarni-Nomizu product of g and Ricc, and the Weyl conformal curvature tensor of M, respectively. In this paper we study Wintgen ideal submanifolds M in real space forms R^{n+m}(k), n > 3, m = 1 or m > 3, satisfying the following pseudo-symmetry type curvature conditions: (i) R.C and Q(g,R) (resp., Q(g,C), Q(g,g/\Ricc), Q(Ricc,R) or Q(Ricc,g/\Ricc)) are linearly dependent; (ii) C.R and Q(g,R) (resp., Q(g,C), Q(g,g/\Ricc), Q(Ricc,R) or Q(Ricc,g/\Ricc)) are linearly dependent; (iii) R.C - C.R and Q(g,R) (resp., Q(g,C), Q(g,g/\Ricc), Q(Ricc,R) or Q(Ricc,g/\Ricc)) are linearly dependent.
