Nearly Kähler submanifolds of a space form

Abstract

In this article we study isometric immersions of nearly Kähler manifolds into a space form (specially Euclidean space) and show that every nearly Kähler submanifold of a space form has a totally umbilic foliation whose leafs are 6-dimensional nearly Kähler manifolds. Moreover using this foliation we show that there is no non-homogeneous 6-dimensional nearly Kähler submanifold of a space form. We prove some results towards a classification of nearly Kähler hypersurfaces in standard space forms.
