Abstract




The normal bundle $\bar \nu$ of a totally real surface $M$ in $S^6$ splits as $\bar\nu= JTM\oplus \bar\mu$ where $TM$ is the tangent bundle of $M$ and  $\bar\mu$ is sub­bundle of $\bar\nu$ which is invariant under the almost complex structure $J$. We study the totally real surfaces M of constant Gaussian curvature K for which the second fundamental form $h(x, y) \in JTM$, and we show that $K = 1$ (that is, $M$ is totally geodesic).
