### Submanifolds with constant scalar curvature in a unit sphere

#### Abstract

We study the submanifolds in the unit sphere ${\boldsymbol S}^{n+p}$ with constant scalar curvature and parallel normalized mean curvature vector field. In this case, we can generalize the work of the second author about hypersurfaces in Hypersurfaces with constant scalar curvature in space forms to submanifolds in a unit sphere.
