Abstract

For any n-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold M with smooth metric g, we construct a canonical t-family of isometric embeddings It : M → ℝq(t), with t > 0 sufficiently small and q (t ) 蠑 t-n/2. This is done by intrinsically perturbing the heat kernel embedding introduced in [BBG]. As t → 0+, asymptotic geometry of the embedded images is discussed.
