In this paper we classify Euclidean hypersurfaces $fcolon M^n rightarrow mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with a principal curvature of multiplicity $n-2$ that admit a genuine conformal deformation $tilde{f}colon M^n rightarrow mathbb{R}^{n+2}$. That $tilde{f}colon M^n rightarrow mathbb{R}^{n+2}$ is a genuine conformal deformation of $f$ means that it is a conformal immersion for which there exists no open subset $U subset M^n$ such that the restriction $tilde{f}|_U$ is a composition $tilde f|_U=hcirc f|_U$ of $f|_U$ with a conformal immersion $hcolon Vto mathbb{R}^{n+2}$ of an open subset $Vsubset mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ containing $f(U)$.

We classify the hypersurfaces of Euclidean space that carry a totally geodesic foliation with complete leaves of codimension one. In particular, we show that rotation hypersurfaces with complete profiles of codimension one are characterized by their warped product structure. The local version of the problem is also considered.
In the realm of conformal geometry, we give a classification of the Euclidean hypersurfaces that admit a non-trivial conformal infinitesimal variation. In the restricted case of conformal variations, such a classification was obtained by E. Cartan in 1917. The case of infinitesimal isometric variations was done by U. Sbrana in 1908. In particular, we show that the class of hypersurfaces that allow a conformal infinitesimal variation is much larger than the one considered by Cartan.
The purpose of this work is to close the local deformation problem of rank two Euclidean submanifolds in codimension two by describing their moduli space of deformations. In the process, we provide an explicit simple representation of these submanifolds, a result of independent interest by its applications. We also determine which deformations are genuine and honest, allowing us to find the first known examples of honestly locally deformable rank two submanifolds in codimension two. In addition, we study which of these submanifolds admit isometric immersions as Euclidean hypersurfaces, a property that gives rise to several applications to the Sbrana-Cartan theory of deformable Euclidean hypersurfaces.
The main purpose of this paper is to complete the work initiated by Sbrana in 1909 giving a complete local classification of the nonflat infinitesimally bendable hypersurfaces in Euclidean space.
Let $fcolon M^{2n}tomathbb{R}^{2n+ell}$, $n geq 5$, denote a conformal immersion into Euclidean space with codimension $ell$ of a Kaehler manifold of complex dimension $n$ and free of flat points. For codimensions $ell=1,2$ we show that such a submanifold can always be locally obtained in a rather simple way, namely, from an isometric immersion of the Kaehler manifold $M^{2n}$ into either $mathbb{R}^{2n+1}$ or $mathbb{R}^{2n+2}$, the latter being a class of submanifolds already extensively studied.
