The moduli space of all those noncongruent ones is introduced, which can be described by certain complex symmetric matrices modulo an appropriate group action. Using this description, many examples, such as constantly curved holomorphic 2-spheres of higher degree, nonhomogenous minimal 2-spheres of constant curvature, etc., are constructed. Uniqueness is proven for the totally real constantly curved 2-sphere minimal in both the hyperquadric and $\\mathbb{C}P^n$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-03-27T18:43:05.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "53C42", "53C55" ], "keywords": [ "constant curvature", "complex hyperquadric", "complex symmetric matrices modulo", "singular-value decomposition theory", "appropriate group action" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 29, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
