This is a survey on the recent progress in several applications of isoparametric theory, including an affirmative answer to Yaus conjecture on the first eigenvalue of Laplacian in the isoparametric case, a negative answer to Yaus 76th problem in his Problem Section, new examples of Willmore submanifolds in spheres, a series of examples to Besses problem on the generalization of Einstein condition, isoparametric functions on exotic spheres, counterexamples to two conjectures of Leung, as well as surgery theory on isoparametric foliation.
We revisit Allendoerfer-Weils formula for the Euler characteristic of embedded hypersurfaces in constant sectional curvature manifolds, first taking some time to re-prove it while demonstrating techniques of [2] and then applying it to gain new understanding of isoparametric hypersurfaces.
The Hilberts 17th problem asks that whether every nonnegative polynomial can be a sum of squares of rational functions. It has been answered affirmatively by Artin. However, as to the question whether a given nonnegative polynomial is a sum of square
Based on representation theory of Clifford algebra, Ferus, Karcher and M{u}nzner constructed a series of isoparametric foliations. In this paper, we will survey recent studies on isoparametric hypersurfaces of OT-FKM type and investigate related geometric constructions with mean curvature flow.
An isoparametric family in the unit sphere consists of parallel isoparametric hypersurfaces and their two focal submanifolds. The present paper has two parts. The first part investigates topology of the isoparametric families, namely the homotopy, ho
Associated with isoparametric foliations of unit spheres, there are two classes of minimal surfaces $-$ minimal isoparametric hypersurfaces and focal submanifolds. By virtue of their rich structures, we find new series of minimizing cones. They are c
