Splitting submanifolds in rational homogeneous spaces of Picard number one


Abstract in English

Let $M$ be a complex manifold. We prove that a compact submanifold $Ssubset M$ with splitting tangent sequence (called a splitting submanifold) is rational homogeneous when $M$ is in a large class of rational homogeneous spaces of Picard number one. Moreover, when $M$ is irreducible Hermitian symmetric, we prove that $S$ must be also Hermitian symmetric. The basic tool we use is the restriction and projection map $pi$ of the global holomorphic vector fields on the ambient space which is induced from the splitting condition. The usage of global holomorphic vector fields may help us set up a new scheme to classify the splitting submanifolds in explicit examples, as an example we give a differential geometric proof for the classification of compact splitting submanifolds with $dimgeq 2$ in a hyperquadric, which has been previously proven using algebraic geometry.
