Rigidity of closed CSL submanifolds in the unit sphere

Abstract

A contact stationary Legendrian submanifold (briefly, CSL submanifold) is a stationary point of the volume functional of Legendrian submanifolds in a Sasakian manifold. Much effort has been paid in the last two decades to construct examples of such manifolds, mainly by geometers using various geometric methods. But we have rare knowledge about their geometric properties till now. Recently, Y. Luo (\cite{ Luo2, Luo1}) proved that a closed CSL surface in $\mathbb{S}^5$ with the square length of its second fundamental form belonging to $[0,2]$ must be totally geodesic or be a flat minimal Legendrian torus, which generalizes a related gap theorem of minimal Legendrian surface due to Yamaguchi et al. (\cite{YKM}). In this paper, we will study the general dimensional case of this result.
