In this paper, we characterise the n-dimensional (n ≥ 3) complete spacelike hypersurfaces Mn in a de Sitter space with constant scalar curvature and with two distinct principal curvatures. We show that if the multiplicities of such principal curvatures are greater than 1, then Mn is isometric to Hk (sinh r) × Sn−k (cosh r), 1 < k < n − 1. In particular, when Mn is the complete spacelike hypersurfaces in with the scalar curvature and the mean curvature being linearly related, we also obtain a characteristic Theorem of such hypersurfaces.

In this paper, we prove that if M^2 is a complete maximal spacelike surface of an anti-de Sitter space {\bf H}^{4}_{2}(c) with constant scalar curvature, then S=0, S={-10c\over 11}, S={-4c\over 3} or S=-2c, where S is the squared norm of the second fundamental form of M^{2}. Also(1) S=0 if and only if M^2 is the totally geodesic surface {\bf H}^2(c);(2) S={-4c\over 3} if and only if M^2 is the hyperbolic Veronese surface;(3) S=-2c if and only if M^2 is the hyperbolic cylinder of the totally geodesicsurface {\bf H}^{3}_{1}(c) of {\bf H}^{4}_{2}(c).1991 Mathematics Subject Classifaction 53C40, 53C42.
