Ricci scalar of submanifold of $\mathbf R^n$

Thanks Willie but I find your answer slightly hard to follow. The following is what I uncovered. Given a basis $\{e_a\}$ (with $a=1,...,n-m$) for the tangent space $TM$ the second fundamental form, $\ …

Topologies in the vicinity of Euclidean space

Given a smooth function $f:\mathbf R^n\to \mathbf R^m$ with $0$ as a regular value, I define the $(n-m)$ dimensional smooth manifold $M_f:=f^{-1}(0)$. Let $f_0(x_1,...,x_n):=(x_1,...,x_m)$; $M_{f_0}$ …

Can a smooth manifold be realised as the image of a smooth function?

Consider, $M$, a smooth $m$ dimensional submanifold of $\mathbf R^n$. Does there exist a smooth map $X: \mathbf{R}^m\to\mathbf R^n$ such that $M=X(\mathbf R^m)$? $X$ may have points at which the Jacob …
