Abstract

The notion of a Frobenius submanifold — a submanifold of a Frobenius manifold which is itself a Frobenius manifold with respect to structures induced from the original Frobenius manifold — is studied. Two-dimensional submanifolds are particularly simple. More generally, sufficient conditions are given for a submanifold to be a so-called natural Frobenius submanifold. These ideas are illustrated using examples of Frobenius manifolds constructed from Coxeter groups, and for the Frobenius manifolds governing the quantum cohomology of CP2 and CP1 X CP1.
