Euclidean hypersurfaces with genuine deformations in codimension two
Published 14 Oct 2010 in math.DG | (1010.2932v2)
Abstract: We classify hypersurfaces of rank two of Euclidean space $\R{n+1}$ that admit genuine isometric deformations in $\R{n+2}$. That an isometric immersion $\hat f\colon\,Mn\to\R{n+2}$ is a genuine isometric deformation of a hypersurface $f\colon\, Mn\to\R{n+1}$ means that $\hat f$ is nowhere a composition $\hat f=\hat F\circ f$, where $\hat F\colon\,V\subset \R{n+1}\to\R{n+2}$ is an isometric immersion of an open subset $V$ containing $f(M)$.
