Abstract

In this paper, we study conformally flat hypersurfaces of dimension n(4)n(\geq 4) in Sn+1\mathbb{S}^{n+1} using the framework of M\"obius geometry. First, we classify and explicitly express the conformally flat hypersurfaces of dimension n(4)n(\geq 4) with constant M\"obius scalar curvature under the M\"obius transformation group of Sn+1\mathbb{S}^{n+1}. Second, we prove that if the conformally flat hypersurface with constant M\"obius scalar curvature RR is compact, then R=(n1)(n2)r2,  0<r<1,R=(n-1)(n-2)r^2, ~~0<r<1, and the compact conformally flat hypersurface is M\"obius equivalent to the torus S1(1r2)×Sn1(r)Sn+1.\mathbb{ S}^1(\sqrt{1-r^2})\times \mathbb{S}^{n-1}(r)\hookrightarrow \mathbb{S}^{n+1}.
