An integral formula for bi-slant submanifolds in complex space forms

Abstract

The present paper deals with bi-slant submanifolds in complex space forms. We obtain an integral formula of Simons' type for bi-slant submanifolds of a complex space form with positive constant holomorphic sectional curvature. Then, we apply it to prove our main result. We also discuss the same result in different submanifolds such as hemi-slant and semi-slant submanifolds.
