My research lines are focused on Submanifolds theory, a branch of Differential Geometry where some subsets of differentiable manifolds are studied, on which it is imposed a geometric condition to be able to study them and, at a given moment, to classify them. Common conditions on submanifolds include:
- To have some type of curvature (mean, r-th mean, scalar) constant or bounded.
- To have a distinguished vector field (Killing, conformal, closed conformal, for example).
In the case of the ambient space where the submanifolds are found, I work with space forms, homogeneous spaces, and warped products, although it is also important to know which of these results in the differentiable field extend to more general spaces, such as Alexandrov spaces, Ricci limit spaces and so on.
Needless to say, I regularly collaborate with national and foreign professors and researchers.
