In a recent paper [2] Nomizu and Smyth have determined the hypersurfaces Mn of non-negative sectional curvature iso-metrically immersed in the Euclidean space Rn+1 or the sphere Sn+1 with constant mean curvature under the additional assumption that the scalar curvature of Mn is constant. This additional assumption is automatically satisfied if Mn is compact. In this paper we extend these results to codimension p isometric immersions. We determine the n-dimensional submanifolds Mn of non-negative sectional curvature isometrically immersed in the Euclidean Space Rn+P or the sphere Sn+P with constant mean curvature under the additional assumptions that Mn has constant scalar curvature and the curvature tensor of the connection in the normal bundle is zero. By constant mean curvature we mean that the mean curvature normal is paral lel with respect to the connection in the normal bundle. The assumption that Mn has constant scalar curvature is automatically satisfied if Mn is compact. The assumption on the normal connection is automatically sa tisfied if p = 2 and the mean curvature normal is not zero.

AbstractIn this paper we obtain some new characterizations of pseudo-Einstein real hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{C}P^{2}$ and $\mathbb{C}H^{2}$. More precisely, we prove that a real hypersurface in $\mathbb{C}P^{2}$ or $\mathbb{C}H^{2}$ with constant mean curvature is generalized ${\mathcal{D}}$-Einstein with constant coefficient if and only if it is pseudo-Einstein. We prove that a real hypersurface in $\mathbb{C}P^{2}$ with constant scalar curvature is generalized ${\mathcal{D}}$-Einstein with constant coefficient if and only if it is pseudo-Einstein.

We investigate the differences and similarities of the Dirichlet problem of the mean curvature equation in the Euclidean space and in the Lorentz-Minkowski space. Although the solvability of the Dirichlet problem follows standards techniques of elliptic equations, we focus in showing how the spacelike condition in the Lorentz-Minkowski space allows dropping the hypothesis on the mean convexity, which is required in the Euclidean case.

Hyperbolic Gauss Map

We study submanifolds of hyperbolic spaces with finite type hyperbolic Gauss map. First, we classify the hyperbolic submanifolds with 1-type hyperbolic Gauss map. Then we prove that a non-totally umbilical hypersurface Mn with nonzero constant mean curvature in a hyperbolic space [Formula: see text] has 2-type hyperbolic Gauss map if and only if M has constant scalar curvature. We also classify surfaces with constant mean curvature in the hyperbolic space [Formula: see text] having 2-type hyperbolic Gauss map. Moreover we show that a horohypersphere in [Formula: see text] has biharmonic hyperbolic Gauss map.

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.

We study the weak stability index of an immersion ϕ: M → Sn+1 (1) ⊂ Rn+2 of an n-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold. We prove that the weak stability index of a compact hypersurface M with constant scalar curvature in Sn+1 (1), which is not totally umbilical, is greater than or equal to n + 2 if the mean curvature H1 and H3 are constant, and that the equality holds if and only if M is $\smash{S^m(c)\times S^{n-m}(\sqrt{1-c^2})}$. As an application, we show that the weak stability index of an n-dimensional compact hypersurface with constant scalar curvature in Sn+1 (1), which is neither totally umbilical nor a Clifford hypersurface, is greater than or equal to 2n + 4 if the mean curvature H1 and H3 are constant.

The Stability

The totally umbilical and non-totally geodesic hypersurfaces in the (n + 1)-dimensional spheres are characterized as the only hypersurfaces with weak stability index 0. In our 2010 paper we proved that the weak stability index of a compact hypersurface M with constant scalar curvature n(n − 1)r, r> 1, in an (n + 1)-dimensional sphere Sn + 1(1), which is not a totally umbilical hypersurface, is greater than or equal to n + 2 if the mean curvature H and H3 are constant. In this paper, we prove the same results, without the assumption that H3 is constant. In fact, we show that the weak stability index of a compact hypersurface M with constant scalar curvature n(n − 1)r, r> 1, in Sn + 1(1), which is not a totally umbilical hypersurface, is greater than or equal to n + 2 if the mean curvature H is constant.

AbstractLet M be an m dimensional submanifold in the Euclidean space Rn and H be the mean curvature ofM. We obtain some low geometric estimates of the total squaremean curvature ∫M H2dσ. The low bounds are geometric invariants involving the volume of M, the total scalar curvature of M, the Euler characteristic and the circumscribed ball of M.
