In this study, we deal with the local structure of curves and surfaces immersed in a pseudo-isotropic space $\mathbb{I}_{p}^{3}$ that is a particular Cayley-Klein space. We provide the formulas of curvature, torsion and Frenet trihedron for spacelike and timelike curves, respectively. The causal character of all admissible surfaces in $\mathbb{I}_{p}^{3}$ has to be timelike up to its absolute. We introduce the formulas of Gaussian and mean curvature for timelike surfaces in $\mathbb{I}_{p}^{3}$. As applications, we describe the surfaces of revolution which are the orbits of a plane curve under a hyperbolic rotation with constant Gaussian and mean curvature.

AbstractA sufficient condition, for a complete submanifold of a Riemannian manifold of positive constant curvature to be umbilical, is given. The condition will be given by an inequality which is established between the length of the second fundamental tensor and the mean curvature.

AbstractConsider submanifolds in the nested space. For a compact pseudoumbilical submanifold with parallel mean curvature vector of a Riemannian submanifold with constant curvature immersed in a quasi-constant curvature Riemannian manifold, two sufficient conditions are given to let the pseudo-umbilical submanifold become a totally umbilical submanifold.
