Abstract

In [6] we proved Chen's inequality regarded as a problem of constrained maximum. In this paper we introduce a Riemannian invariant obtained from Chen's invariant, replacing the sectional curvature by the Ricci curvature of k-order. This invariant can be estimated, in the case of submanifolds M in space forms M(c), varying with c and the mean curvature of M in M(c). A improuvement of this inequality in the Lagrangian case is obtained.
