Geometric, topological and differentiable rigidity of submanifolds in space forms

TL;DR: In this article, a differentiable sphere theorem for submanifolds with positive Ricci curvature was obtained, where the curvature of the Ricci surface is defined as the reciprocal of the mean curvature.

Classification and rigidity of self-shrinkers in the mean curvature flow

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that K. Smoczyk's classification theorem for complete self-shrinkers in higher codimension also holds under a weaker condition, and as an application, they gave some rigidity results for self shrinkers in arbitrary-codimension.

Topological and differentiable rigidity of submanifolds in space forms

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that if M n (n ≥ 4) is a compact submanifold in F n+p (c), and if RicM > (n − 2)(c + H 2 ), where H is the mean curvature of M, then M is homeomorphic to a sphere.

Minimal Submanifolds of a Sphere with Second Fundamental Form of Constant Length

TL;DR: In this article, an n-dimensional manifold which is minimally immersed in a unit sphere of dimension n+p is considered. But the manifold is not a sphere, it is a manifold.

Minimal Immersions of Spheres into Spheres

TL;DR: In this article, a qualitative description of an important class of closed n-dimensional submanifolds of the m-dimensional sphere, namely, those which locally minimize the n-area in the same way that geodesics minimize the arc length and are themselves locally n-spheres of constant radius r; those r that may appear are called admissible.
