AbstractOur purpose is to study the geometry of linear Weingarten spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in a locally symmetric Einstein spacetime, whose sectional curvature is supposed to obey some standard restrictions. In this setting, by using as main analytical tool a generalized maximum principle for complete non-compact Riemannian manifolds, we establish sufficient conditions to guarantee that such a hypersurface must be either totally umbilical or an isoparametric hypersurface with two distinct principal curvatures, one of which is simple. Applications to the de Sitter space are given.

In this paper, we establish the notion of (r, s)-stability concerning spacelike hypersurfaces with higher-order mean curvatures linearly related in conformally stationary spacetimes of constant sectional curvature. In this setting, we characterize (r, s)-stable closed spacelike hypersurfaces through the analysis of the first eigenvalue of an operator naturally attached to the higher-order mean curvatures. Moreover, we obtain sufficient conditions which assure the (r, s)-stability of complete spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in the de Sitter space.

In this article, we deal with complete spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in an open region of the de Sitter space $\mathbb {S}^{n+1}_{1}$ which is known as the steady state space $\mathcal {H}^{n+1}$. Under suitable constraints on the behavior of the higher order mean curvatures of these hypersurfaces, we are able to prove that they must be spacelike hyperplanes of $\mathcal {H}^{n+1}$. Furthermore, through the analysis of the hyperbolic cylinders of $\mathcal {H}^{n+1}$, we discuss the importance of the main hypothesis in our results. Our approach is based on a generalized maximum principle at infinity for complete Riemannian manifolds.

Abstract Our purpose in this paper is to study complete linear Weingarten space-like hypersurface immersed in locally symmetric Lorentz space obeying some curvature conditions. Our approach is based on the use of a Simons type formula related to an appropriated Cheng-Yau modified operator jointly with some generalized maximum principles, we obtain that such a space-like hypersurface must be either totally umbilical or isometric to an isoparametric hypersurface with two distinct principal curvatures, one of which is simple. This result corresponds to a natural improvement of previous ones due to de Lima, dos Santos, Velásquez [On the umbilicity of complete linear Weingarten spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in a locally symmetric Lorentz space, São Paulo J. Math. Sci. 11 (2017), 456–470] and Alías, de Lima, dos Santos [New characterizations of linear Weingarten spacelike hypersurfaces in de Sitter space, Pacific J. Math. 292 (2018), 1–19].

Abstract We study some Weingarten spacelike hypersurfaces in a de Sitter space S1n+1 (1). If the Weingarten spacelike hypersurfaces have two distinct principal curvatures, we obtain two classification theorems which give some characterization of the Riemannian product Hk(1−coth2 ϱ)× Sn−k(1 − tanh2 ϱ), 1 < k < n − 1 in S1n+1(1), the hyperbolic cylinder H1(1 − coth2 ϱ) × Sn-1(1 − tanh2 ϱ) or spherical cylinder Hn−1(1 − coth2 ϱ) × S1(1 − tanh2 ϱ) in S1n+1 (1)

AbstractIn this paper, as a suitable application of the well-known generalized maximum principle of Omori–Yau, we obtain uniqueness results concerning to complete spacelike hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature immersed in a Robertson–Walker (RW) spacetime. As an application of such uniqueness results for the case of vertical graphs in a RW spacetime, we also get non-parametric rigidity results.

SynopsisThis is a contribution to the general problem of determining the extent to which the geometry of a riemannian manifold is determined by properties of its geodesic spheres. In particular we show that total umbilicity of geodesic spheres determines riemannian manifolds of constant sectional curvature; quasi-umbilicity of geodesic spheres determines Kähler and nearly-Kähler manifolds of constant holomorphic sectional curvature; and the condition that geodesic spheres have only two different principal curvatures, one having multiplicity 3, determines manifolds locally isometric to the quaternionic projective spaces. The use of Jacobi vector fields leads to a unified treatment of these different cases.

In this paper, complete spacelike submanifolds with parallel normalized mean curvature vector are investigated in semi-Riemannian space obeying some standard curvature conditions. In this setting, we obtain a suitable Simons type formula and apply it jointly with the well-known generalized maximum principle of Omori–Yau to show that it must be totally umbilical submanifold or isometric to an isoparametric hypersurface in a submanifold [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text].
