There are several ways to generalize these submanifolds: the study of CMC submanifolds which satisfy some additional geometric hypotheses (CMC + biharmonicity); the study of hypersurfaces in space forms, i.e., with constant sectional curvature, which are highly non-cmc. The study of biconservative surfaces matches with both directions from above. 4 / 55

13 General context Biconservative submanifolds in arbitrary manifolds (and in particular, biconservative surfaces) which are also CMC have some remarkable properties. The CMC hypersurfaces in space forms are trivially biconservative, so more interesting is the study of biconservative hypersurfaces which are non-cmc. 5 / 55

The CMC hypersurfaces in space forms are trivially biconservative, so more interesting is the study of biconservative hypersurfaces which are non-cmc. Under the hypothesis of biconservativity some known results in the theory of submanifolds can be extended to more general contexts. 5 / 55
