Streszczenie
Geometry of traceless cubic forms is studied. It is shown that the traceless part of the cubic form on a statistical manifold determines a conformal-projective equivalence class of statistical manifolds. This conformal-projective equivalence on statistical manifolds is a natural generalization of conformal equivalence on Riemannian manifolds. As an application, Tchebychev type immersions in centroaffine immersions of codimension two are studied.
