Abstract: We introduce the notions of (extrinsic) locally transversally symmetric immersions and submanifolds in a Riemannian manifold equipped with a unit Killing vector field as analogues of those of (extrinsic) locally symmetric immersions and submanifolds. We treat their geometric properties, derive several characterizations and give a list of examples.
Keywords: reflections, isometric flows, (locally) symmetric and transversally symmetric immersions and submanifolds, Killing-transversally symmetric spaces, normal flow space forms
