Abstract: In this paper, we mainly study the global rigidity theorem of Riemannian submanifolds in space forms. Let Mn(n3) be a complete minimal submanifold in the unit sphere Sn+p(1). For λ[0,n21/p), there is an explicit positive constant C(n,p,λ), depending only on n,p,λ, such that, if MSn/2dM<,M(Sλ)+n/2dM<C(n,p,λ), then Mn is a totally geodetic sphere, where S denotes the square of the second fundamental form of the submanifold and f+=max{0,f}. Similar conclusions can be obtained for a complete submanifold with parallel mean curvature in the Euclidean space Rn+p.

Key words: Euclidean space, the unit sphere, submanifolds with parallel mean curvature, global rigidity theorem
