Volume of sub-manifold of $\mathbf R^n$

Let $M$ be an $n-m$ dimensional sub-manifold of $\mathbf R^n$ defined by the following set of polynomial equations: \begin{equation} P_1(\vec x)=0, \\ \vdots \\ P_m(\vec x)=0, \end{equation} (where $\ …

To what extent is the Nash embedding not unique?

It is clear that the set of all such embeddings contains, at least, all the embeddings obtained by action of the Euclidean group $E(n)$ on $f$, but is there a way of understanding the entire set of embeddings

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, $\ …

Under what conditions can an orientable Riemannian 3-manifold be defined implicitly?

Under what conditions can an orientable Riemannian 3-manifold $\Sigma$ be defined implicitly? What I mean by implicitly is that there exists a smooth function $f:\mathbb{R}^n\to \mathbb{R}^m$, such th …

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 …
