As an example, we prove that closed complex submanifolds in complex projective spaces are critical points of the functional M2p, called relatively 2p-minimal submanifolds, for all p. At last, we discuss the relations between relatively 2p-minimal submanifoIds and austere submanifolds in real space forms, as well as a special variational problem.展开更多

文摘In this paper, we establish the first variational formula and its Euler-Lagrange equation for the total 2p-th mean curvature functional .M2p of a submanifold Mn in a general Riemannian manifold gn^n+m for p = 0, 1,..., [n/2].
