Abstract:
An $n$-dimensional Veronese manifold is defined as a minimal immersion of an $n$-sphere of curvature $n/2(n + 1)$ into an $\{ n(n + 3)/2 - 1\}$-dimensional unit sphere. The purpose of this paper is to give some characterizations of a Veronese manifold in terms of isotropic immersions.References
