Total Mean Curvature And Submanifolds Of Finite Type (2nd Edition)

During the last four decades, there were numerous important developments on total mean curvature and the theory of finite type submanifolds. This unique and expanded second edition comprises a comprehensive account of the latest updates and new results that cover total mean curvature and submanifolds of finite type. The longstanding biharmonic conjecture of the author's and the generalized biharmonic conjectures are also presented in details. This book will be of use to graduate students and researchers in the field of geometry.
