Extrinsic Berger conjecture for complex submanifolds of projective space

At least 19 years old · documented by

Let M↪CPNM\hookrightarrow \mathbb{C} P^N be a complete, connected, and full complex submanifold, meaning that it is not contained in a proper hyperplane. Suppose its normal holonomy group is not the full unitary group of the normal space. Extrinsic Berger conjecture. Then MM has parallel second fundamental form. This conjecture is proposed as an extrinsic analogue of Berger's theorem; the paper proves the corresponding classification for complex submanifolds with parallel second fundamental form, but the stated implication remains unverified here.
