SynopsisSuppose that a space form is immersed into another Riemannian manifold as a totally umbilical hypersurface with constant mean curvature. Then, in the ambient manifold, the lengthof the curvature tensor, that of the Ricci tensor and the scalar curvature must satisfy an inequality. In this paper the authors proved the inequality. As applications of the inequality, some immersibility problems are investigated. For example, it is proved that if a space form is immersed in an Einstein manifold as a totally umbilical hypersurface, then the Einstein manifold has constant sectional curvature along the hypersurface. Moreover, it is proved that a space form cannot be immersed into some Kaehlerian manifolds as a totally umbilical hypersurface with constant mean curvature.

Under some dimension restrictions, we prove that totally umbilical hypersurfaces of Spin[Formula: see text] manifolds carrying a parallel, real or imaginary Killing spinor are of constant mean curvature. This extends to the Spin[Formula: see text] case the result of Kowalski stating that, every totally umbilical hypersurface of an Einstein manifold of dimension greater or equal to [Formula: see text] is of constant mean curvature. As an application, we prove that there are no extrinsic hypersheres in complete Riemannian [Formula: see text] manifolds of non-constant sectional curvature carrying a parallel, Killing or imaginary Killing spinor.

For submanifolds tangent to the structure vector field in cosymplectic space forms, we establish a basic inequality between the main intrinsic invariants of the submanifold, namely, its sectional curvature and scalar curvature on one side; and its main extrinsic invariant, namely, squared mean curvature on the other side. Some applications, including inequalities between the intrinsic invariantδMand the squared mean curvature, are given. The equality cases are also discussed.

In [4] M. Prvanovic considered several curvaturelike tensors defined for Hermitian manifolds. Developing her ideas in [3], we defined in an almost contact Riemannian manifold another new curvaturelike tensor field, which is called a contact holomorphic Riemannian curvature tensor or briefly (CHR)3-curvature tensor. Then, we mainly researched (CHR)3-curvature tensor in a Sasakian manifold. Also we proved, that a conformally (CHR)3-flat Sasakian manifold does not exist. In the present paper, we consider this tensor field in a trans-Sasakian manifold. We calculate the (CHR)3-curvature tensor in a trans-Sasakian manifold. Also, the (CHR)3-Ricci tensor ρ3  and the (CHR)3-scalar curvature τ3  in a trans-Sasakian manifold have been obtained. Moreover, we define the notion of the (CHR)3-flatness in an almost contact Riemannian manifold. Then, we consider this notion in a trans-Sasakian manifold and determine the curvature tensor, the Ricci tensor and the scalar curvature. We proved that a (CHR)3-flat trans-Sasakian manifold is a generalized   ɳ-Einstein manifold. Finally, we obtain the expression of the curvature tensor with respect to the Riemannian metric g of a trans-Sasakian manifold, if the latter is (CHR)3-flat.

Let [Formula: see text] be a nondegenerate biharmonic pseudo-Riemannian hypersurface in a pseudo-Riemannian space form [Formula: see text] with constant sectional curvature [Formula: see text]. We show that [Formula: see text] has constant mean curvature provided that it has three distinct principal curvatures and the Weingarten operator can be diagonalizable.

In this paper we investigate three-dimensional complete minimal hypersurfaces with constant Gauss-Kronecker curvature in a space form M4(c) (c ≤ 0). We prove that if the scalar curvature of a such hypersurface is bounded from below, then its Gauss-Kronecker curvature vanishes identically. Examples of complete minimal hypersurfaces which are not totally geodesic in the Euclidean space E4 and the hyperbolic space H4(c) with vanishing Gauss-Kronecker curvature are also presented. It is also proved that totally umbilical hypersurfaces are the only complete hypersurfaces with non-zero constant mean curvature and with zero quasi-Gauss-Kronecker curvature in a space form M4(c) (c ≤ 0) if the scalar curvature is bounded from below. In particular, we classify complete hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature and with constant quasi-Gauss-Kronecker curvature in a space form M4(c) (c ≤ 0) if the scalar curvature r satisfies r≥ ⅔c.

We study sectional curvature, Ricci tensor, and scalar curvature of submanifolds of generalized -space forms. Then we give an upper bound for foliate -horizontal (and vertical) CR-submanifold of a generalized -space form and an upper bound for minimal -horizontal (and vertical) CR-submanifold of a generalized -space form. Finally, we give the same results for special cases of generalized -space forms such as -space forms, generalized Sasakian space forms, Sasakian space forms, Kenmotsu space forms, cosymplectic space forms, and almost -manifolds.

AbstractIn this paper different curvature tensors on Lorentzian Kenmotsu manifod are studied. We investigate constant ϕ–holomorphic sectional curvature and ℒ-sectional curvature of Lorentzian Kenmotsu manifolds, obtaining conditions for them to be constant of Lorentzian Kenmotsu manifolds in such condition. We calculate the Ricci tensor and scalar curvature for all the cases. Moreover we investigate some properties of semi invariant submanifolds of a Lorentzian Kenmotsu space form. We show that if a semi-invariant submanifold of a Lorentzian Kenmotsu space form M is totally geodesic, then M is an η−Einstein manifold. We consider sectional curvature of semi invariant product of a Lorentzian Kenmotsu manifolds.

AbstractWe extend the Lyapunov–Schmidt analysis of outlying stable constant mean curvature spheres in the work of S. Brendle and the second-named author [S. Brendle and M. Eichmair, Isoperimetric and Weingarten surfaces in the Schwarzschild manifold, J. Differential Geom. 94 2013, 3, 387–407] to the “far-off-center” regime and to include general Schwarzschild asymptotics. We obtain sharp existence and non-existence results for large stable constant mean curvature spheres that depend delicately on the behavior of scalar curvature at infinity.

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.
