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.

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.

We give a sharp lower bound for the supremum of the norm of the mean curvature of an isometric immersion of a complete Riemannian manifold with scalar curvature bounded from below into a horoball of a complex or real hyperbolic space. We also characterize the horospheres of the real or complex hyperbolic spaces as the only isometrically immersed hypersurfaces which are between two parallel horospheres, have the norm of the mean curvature vector bounded by the above sharp bound and have some special groups of symmetries.

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.

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.

Let M be a compact hypersurface in a Euclidena space ℝn+1. The support function p of M is the component of the position vector field of Min ℝn+1 along the unit normal vector field to M, which is a smooth function defined on M. Let S be the scalar curvature of M. The object of the present paper is to prove the following theorems.

In this paper, we obtain rigidity results and obstructions on the topology at infinity of translating solitons of the mean curvature flow in the Euclidean space. Our approach relies on the theory of [Formula: see text]-minimal hypersurfaces.

In this paper, we mainly investigate non developable ruled surface in a 3-dimensional Euclidean space satisfying the equation $K_{II} = KH$ along each ruling, where $K$ is the Gaussian curvature, $H$ is the mean curvature and $K_{II}$ is the second Gaussian curvature.
