Met $\tilde{M} = (\tilde{M}, \tilde{J}, <>)$ be an almost Hermitian manifold and M a submanifold of $\tilde{M}$. According to the behavior of the tangent bundle TM with respect to the action of $\tilde{J}$, we have two typical classes of submanifolds. One of them is the class of almost complex submanifolds and another is the class of totally real submanifolds. In 1990, B. Y. Chen [4], [5] introduced the concept of the class of slant submanifolds which involve the above two classes. He used the Wirtinger angle to measure the behavior of TM with respect to the action of $\tilde{J}$.

For each submanifold X in the sphere $S^n$; we show that the corresponding conormal bundle $N^*X$ is Lagrangian for the Stenzel form on $T^*S^n$. Furthermore, we correspond an austere submanifold X to a special Lagrangian submanifold $N^*X$ in $T^*S^n$. We also discuss austere submanifolds in $S^n$ from isoparametric geometry.

We classify equivariant topoligical complex vector bundles over real projective plane under a compact Lie group (not necessarily effective) action. It is shown that nonequivariant Chern classes and isotropy representations at (at most) three points are sufficient to classify equivariant vector bundles over real projective plane except one case. To do it, we relate the problem to classification on two-sphere through the covering map because equivariant vector bundles over two-sphere have been already classified.

A CW complex B is said to be I-trivial if there does not exist a $\mathbb{Z}_2$-map from $S^{i-1}$ to S(${\alpha}$) for any vector bundle ${\alpha}$ over B a any integer i with i > dim ${\alpha}$. In this paper, we consider the question of determining whether $\Sigma^k\mathbb{R}P^n$ is I-trivial or not, and to this question we give complete answers when k $\neq$ 1, 3, 8 and partial answers when k = 1, 3, 8. A CW complex B is I-trivial if it is "W-trivial", that is, if for every vector bundle over B, all the Stiefel-Whitney classes vanish. We find, as a result, that $\Sigma^k\mathbb{R}P^n$ is a counterexample to the converse of th statement when k = 2, 4 or 8 and n $\geq$ 2k.

For unit tangent sphere bundles $T_1M$ with the standard contact metric structure (${\eta},\bar{g},{\phi},{\xi}$), we have two fundamental operators that is, $h=\frac{1}{2}{\pounds}_{\xi}{\phi}$ and ${\ell}=\bar{R}({\cdot},{\xi}){\xi}$, where ${\pounds}_{\xi}$ denotes Lie differentiation for the Reeb vector field ${\xi}$ and $\bar{R}$ denotes the Riemmannian curvature tensor of $T_1M$. In this paper, we study the Reeb ow invariancy of the corresponding (0, 2)-tensor fields H and L of h and ${\ell}$, respectively.

It is shown that for $A_{k, m}$ a k-homogeneous $C^*$-algebra over $S^{2n - 1} \times S^1$ such that no non-trivial matrix algebra can be factored out of $A_{k, m}$ and $A_{k, m} \otimes M_l(C)$ has a non-trivial bundle structure for any positive integer l, we construct an $A_{k, m^-} C(S^{2n - 1} \times S^1) \otimes M_k(C)$-equivalence bimodule to show that every k-homogeneous $C^*$-algebra over $S^{2n - 1} \times S^1)$. Moreover, we prove that the tensor product of the k-homogeneous $C^*$-algebra $A_{k, m}$ with a UHF-algebra of type $p^\infty$ has the tribial bundle structure if and only if the set of prime factors of k is a subset of the set of prime factors of pp.

Let a finite group R act smoothly on a closed manifold M. We assume that R acts freely on M except a union of closed submanifolds with codimension at least two. Then, we show that there exists an isomorphism between equivariant topological complex vector bundles over M and nonequivariant topological complex vector orbibundles over the orbifold M/R. By using this, we can classify nonequivariant vector orbibundles over the orbifold especially when the manifold is two-sphere because we have classified equivariant topological complex vector bundles over two sphere under a compact Lie group (not necessarily effective) action in [6]. This classification of orbibundles conversely explains for one of two exceptional cases of [6].

We study homology of the gauge group associated with the principal $G_2$ bundle over the four-sphere using the Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequence and the Serre spectral sequence with the aid of homology and cohomology operations.

In this paper we study the property of harmonic vector fields. We call a vector fields ${\xi}$ harmonic if it is a harmonic map from the manifold into its tangent bundle with the Sasaki metric. We show that the characteristic polynomial of operator $A={\nabla}{\xi}\;in\;S^{2n+1}\;is\;(x^2+1)^n$.

We calculate the R(G)-algebra structure on the reduced equivariant K-groups of two-dimensional spheres on which a compact Lie group G acts as a reflection. In particular, the reduced equivariant K-groups are trivial if G is abelian, which shows that the previous Y. Yang's calculation in [8] is incorrect.
