We prove${\it\epsilon}$-closeness of hypersurfaces to a sphere in Euclidean space under the assumption that the traceless second fundamental form is${\it\delta}$-small compared to the mean curvature. We give the explicit dependence of${\it\delta}$on${\it\epsilon}$within the class of uniformly convex hypersurfaces with bounded volume.

By using the integral method, we prove a rigidity theorem for spacelike self-shrinkers in pseudo-Euclidean space under a minor growth condition in terms of the mean curvature and the second fundamental form, which generalizes Theorem 1.1 in [H. Q. Liu and Y. L. Xin, Some Results on Space-Like Self-Shrinkers, Acta Math. Sin. (Engl. Ser.) 32(1) (2016) 69–82].

AbstractWe study self-expanding solutions $M^{m}\subset \mathbb {R}^{n}$ M m ⊂ ℝ n of the mean curvature flow. One of our main results is, that complete mean convex self-expanding hypersurfaces are products of self-expanding curves and flat subspaces, if and only if the function |A|2/|H|2 attains a local maximum, where A denotes the second fundamental form and H the mean curvature vector of M. If the principal normal ξ = H/|H| is parallel in the normal bundle, then a similar result holds in higher codimension for the function |Aξ|2/|H|2, where Aξ is the second fundamental form with respect to ξ. As a corollary we obtain that complete mean convex self-expanders attain strictly positive scalar curvature, if they are smoothly asymptotic to cones of non-negative scalar curvature. In particular, in dimension 2 any mean convex self-expander that is asymptotic to a cone must be strictly convex.

The notion of “mean II-curvature” of a C4-surface (without parabolic points) in the three-dimensional Euclidean space has been introduced by Ekkehart Glässner. The aim of this note is to give some global characterizations of the sphere related to the above notion.In the three-dimensional Euclidean space E3 we consider a sufficiently smooth ovaloid S (closed convex surface) with Gaussian curvature K > 0 . The ovaloid S possesses a positive definite second fundamental form II, if appropriately oriented. During the last years several authors have been concerned with the problem of characterizations of the sphere by the curvature of the second fundamental form of S. In this paper we give some characterizations of the sphere using the concept of the mean II-curvatureHII (of S), defined by Ekkehart Glässner.

This paper concerns the evolution of a closed hypersurface of the hyperbolic space, convex by horospheres, in direction of its inner unit normal vector, where the speed equals a smooth function depending only on the mean curvature, and satisfies some further restrictions, without requiring homogeneity. It is shown that the flow exists on a finite maximal interval, convexity by horospheres is preserved and the hypersurfaces shrink down to a single point as the final time is approached. This generalizes the previous result [S. Guo, Convex hypersurfaces evolving by functions of the mean curvature, preprint (2016), arXiv:1610.08214 ] for convex hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space by the author to the setting in the hyperbolic space for the same class of flows.

Certain twisted product CR-submanifolds in a K?hler manifold and some inequalities of the second fundamental form of these submanifolds are presented ([14]). Then the length of the second fundamental form of a twisted product CR-submanifold in a locally conformal K?hler manifold is considered (2013), ([15]). In this paper, we consider the relation of the mean curvature and the length of the second fundamental form in two twisted product CR-submanifolds in a locally conformal K?hler space forms.

Abstract In this paper, we discuss the monotonicity of the first nonzero eigenvalue of the Laplace operator and the p-Laplace operator under a forced mean curvature flow (MCF). By imposing conditions associated with the mean curvature of the initial hypersurface and the coefficient function of the forcing term of a forced MCF, and some special pinching conditions on the second fundamental form of the initial hypersurface, we prove that the first nonzero closed eigenvalues of the Laplace operator and the p-Laplace operator are monotonic under the forced MCF, respectively, which partially generalize Mao and Zhao’s work. Moreover, we give an example to specify applications of conclusions obtained above.

We give some estimates of the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian for compact and non-compact submanifold immersed in the Euclidean space by using the square length of the second fundamental form of the submanifold merely. Then some spherical theorems and a nonimmersibility theorem of Chern and Kuiper type can be obtained.
