When the boundary is isometrically immersed in Euclidean space, we derive a new inequality involving mean and scalar curvatures of the boundary only and characterize its limiting case in codimension one. A new Ros-type inequality for differential forms is also derived assuming the existence of a nonzero parallel form on the manifold.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-07-07T14:13:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "53C21", "53C24", "58J32", "58J50" ], "keywords": [ "differential forms", "applications", "general poincare-type inequality", "nonzero parallel form", "compact riemannian manifolds" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
