Abstract

We use the methods of harmonic sequences and moving frames to study the harmonic two-spheres in the complex Grassmann manifold G(2,5). Through the construction of holomorphic differential forms on S2, we can simplify the moving frames along a harmonic two-sphere in G(2,5). Finally, we give some upper bounds of the Gauss curvature of minimal two-spheres in G(2,5).
