  • Subminifolds of Euclidean spaces have been studied by examining geodesics of the submanifolds viewed as curves of the ambient Euclidean spaces ([3], [7], [8], [9]). K.Sakamoto ([7]) studied submanifolds of Euclidean space whose geodesics are plane curves, which were called submanifolds with planar geodesics. And he completely calssified such submanifolds as either Blaschke manifolds or totally geodesic submanifolds. We now ask the following: If there is a point p of the given submanifold in Euclidean space such that every geodesic of the submanifold passing through p is a plane curve, how much can we say about the submanifold\ulcorner In the present paper, we study submanifolds of euclicean space with such property.

  • In this work, magnetic geodesics over the space of Kähler potentials are studied through a variational method for a generalized Landau-Hall functional. The magnetic geodesic equation is calculated in this setting and its relation to a perturbed complex Monge-Ampère equation is given. Lastly, the magnetic geodesic equation is considered over the special case of toric Kähler potentials over toric Kähler manifolds.

  • We find unit Killing vectors and homogeneous geodesics on the Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathbf{a}{\oplus}_p\mathbf{r}$, where $\mathbf{a}$ and $\mathbf{r}$ are abelian Lie algebra of dimension n and 1, respectively.

  • In this paper we construct a sequence of spaces which has Gromov-Hausdorff limit such that a geodesic in the limit space is not realized as a limit of geodesics in the spaces of the sequence. This contrasts with the result of Grove and Petersen in [1] where they proved otherwise for Alexandrov spaces with common curvature bounds.

  • Let f:M.rarw.N be a smooth map between Rioemannian manifolds M and N. If f maps geodesics of M to geodesics of N, f is called totally geodesic. As is well known, totally geodesic maps are harmonic and the image f(M) of a totally geodesic map f:M.rarw. N is an immersed totally geodesic submanifold of N (cf. .cint. 6.3 of [W]). We are interested in the following question: When is a harmonic map f:M .rarw. N with rank .leq. 1 everywhere on M totally geodesic\ulcorner In other words, when is the image of a harmonic map f:M .rarw. N with rank .leq. 1 everywhere on M geodesics of N\ulcorner In this note, we give some sufficient conditions on curvatures of M. It is interesting that no curvature assumptions on target manifolds are necessary in Theorems 1 and 2. Some properties of totally geodesic maps are also given in Theorem 3. We think our Theorem 3 is somewhat unusual in view of the following classical theorem of Eells and Sampson (see pp.124 of [ES]).
