Abstract: Let Fn be n-dimensional (n2) submanifold in (n+p)-dimensional Euclidean space En+p (p1). Let x be arbitrary point Fn, TxFn be tangent space to Fn at the point x. Let γg(x,t) be a geodesic on Fn passing through the point xFn in the direction tTxFn. Denote by kg(x,t) and ϰg(x,t) curvature and torsion of geodesic γg(x,t)En+p, respectively, calculated for point x.
Torsion ϰg(x,t) of geodesic γg(x,t) is called geodesic torsion of submanifold FnEn+p at the point x in the direction t.
Let γN(x,t) be a normal section of submanifold FnEn+p at the point xFn in the direction tTxFn. Denote by kN(x,t) and ϰN(x,t) curvature and torsion of normal section γN(x,t)En+p, respectively, calculated for point x.
Denote by b the second fundamental form of Fn, by ¯ the connection of van der Waerden — Bortolotti.
The fundamental form b0 is called cyclic recurrent if on Fn there exists 1-form μ such that
¯Xb(Y,Z)=μ(X)b(Y,Z)+μ(Y)b(Z,X)+μ(Z)b(X,Y)
for all vector fields X,Y,Z tangent to Fn.
Submanifold FnEn+p with cyclic recurrent the second fundamental form b0 is called cyclic recurrent submanifold.
The properties of normal sections γN(x,t) and geodesics γg(x,t) on cyclic recurrent submanifolds FnEn+p are studied in this article. The conditions for which cyclic recurrent submanifolds FnEn+p have zero geodesic torsion ϰg(x,t)0 at every point xFn in every direction tTxFn are derived in this article.
Denote by R0 a set of submanifolds FnEn+p, on which
kg(x,t)0,ϰg(x,t)0,xFn,tTxFn.

The following theorem is proved in this article.
Let Fn be a cyclic recurrent submanifold in En+p with no asymptotic directions. Then Fn belongs to the set R0 if and only if the following condition holds:
kN(x,t)=k(x),xFn,tTxFn.
Keywords: the second fundamental form, cyclic recurrent submanifold, geodesic torsion, normal section, normal curvature, normal torsion, connection of van der Waerden — Bortolotti.
