Abstract
Riemanian geometry began with the study of surfaces in R^3.
It generalizes in many ways to hypersurfaces in R^n, but the theory
in higher codimensions becomes quite different. We will discuss
manifolds with nonnegative curvature
in codimension 2. Topological properties of the submanifold as well as
rigidity of the immersions will be discussed.
