We study a unifying method to obtain nondegenerate isometric immersions of manifolds of constant sectional curvatures c with flat normal bundles into the space forms of curvature c for c= -1,0,1.

Let $x : M^n \longrightarrow E^m$ be an isometric immersion of an n-dimensional connected Riemannian manifold into the m-dimensional Euclidean space. Then the metric tensor on $M^n$ is naturally induced from that of $E^m$.

We study nondegenerate immersions of Riemannian manifolds of constant sectional curvatures into Lorentzian manifolds of the same constant sectional curvatures with flat normal bundles. We also give a method to produce such immersions using the so-called Grassmannian system. .

We study Ribaucour transformations on nondegenerate local isometric immersions of Riemannian space forms into Lorentzian space forms with flat normal bundles. They can be explained by dressing actions on the solution space of Lorentzian Grassmannian systems.

For an isometric immersion $f:M{\rightarrow}{\bar{M}}$ of Finsler manifolds M into $\bar{M}$, we compare the intrinsic Chern connection on M and the induced connection on M: We find the conditions for them to coincide and generalize the equations of Gauss, Ricci and Codazzi to Finsler submanifolds. In case the ambient space is a locally Minkowskian Finsler manifold, we simplify the above equations.

We give criterions for a submanifold to be an extrinsic sphere and to be a totally geodesic submanifold by observing some Frenet curves of order 2 on the submanifold. We also characterize constant isotropic immersions into arbitrary Riemannian manifolds in terms of Frenet curves of proper order 2 on submanifolds. As an application we obtain a characterization of Veronese embeddings of complex projective spaces into complex projective spaces.

We study Ribaucour transformations on nondegenerate local isometric immersions of Lorentzian space forms into Lorentzian space forms with the same sectional curvatures which have flat normal bundles. They can be associated to dressing actions on the solution space of Lorentzian Grassmannian systems.

We show that an n-dimensional unit sphere in the 2n-dimensional de Sitter space can be associated to a solution of a partial differential equation on a Lorentzian Grassmannian system coming from the integrable system theory.

Let x : $M^{n}$ .rarw. $E^{m}$ be an isometric immersion of a manifold $M^{n}$ into the Euclidean space $E^{m}$ and .DELTA. the Laplacian of $M^{n}$ defined by -div.omicron.grad. The family of such immersions satisfying the condition .DELTA.x = .lambda.x, .lambda..mem.R, is characterized by a well known result ot Takahashi (8]): they are either minimal in $E^{m}$ or minimal in some Euclidean hypersphere. As a generalization of Takahashi's result, many authors ([3,6,7]) studied the hypersurfaces $M^{n}$ in $E^{n+1}$ satisfying .DELTA.x = Ax + b, where A is a square matrix and b is a vector in $E^{n+1}$, and they proved independently that such hypersurfaces are either minimal in $E^{n+1}$ or hyperspheres or spherical cylinders. Since .DELTA.x = -nH, the submanifolds mentioned above satisfy .DELTA.H = .lambda.H or .DELTA.H = AH, where H is the mean curvature vector field of M. And the family of hypersurfaces satisfying .DELTA.H = .lambda.H was explored for some cases in [4]. In this paper, we classify space curves x : R .rarw. $E^{3}$ satisfying .DELTA.x = Ax + b or .DELTA.H = AH, and find conditions for such curves to be equivalent.alent.alent.
