Spacelike Hypersurfaces

AbstractBernstein's theorem states that the only complete minimal graphs in R3 are the hyperplanes. We shall produce evidence in favour of some conjectural generalizations of this theorem for the cases of spacelike hypersurfaces of constant mean curvature in Minkowski space and in de Sitter space. The results suggest that the class of asymptotically simple space-times admitting a complete spacelike hypersurface of constant mean curvature may well be considerably smaller than the general class of asymptotically simple space-times.

The Mean

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 obtain a height estimate concerning to a compact spacelike hypersurfaceΣnimmersed with constant mean curvatureHin the anti-de Sitter spaceℍ1n+1, when its boundary∂Σis contained into an umbilical spacelike hypersurface of this spacetime which is isometric to the hyperbolic spaceℍn. Our estimate depends only on the value ofHand on the geometry of∂Σ.As applications of our estimate, we obtain a characterization of hyperbolic domains ofℍ1n+1and nonexistence results in connection with such types of hypersurfaces.

We investigate complete spacelike hypersurfaces in an Anti-de Sitter space with constant m-th mean curvature and two distinct principal curvatures. By using Otsuki's idea, we obtain some global classification results. For their application, we obtain some characterizations for hyperbolic cylinders. We prove that the only complete spacelike hypersurfaces in Anti-de Sitter (n + 1)-spaces (n ≥ 3) of constant mean curvature or constant scalar curvature with two distinct principal curvatures λ and μ satisfying inf (λ - μ)2 > 0 are the hyperbolic cylinders. It is a little surprising that the corresponding result does not hold for m-th mean curvature when m > 2. We also obtain some global rigidity results for hyperbolic cylinders in terms of square length of the second fundamental form.

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.
