Concircular hypersurfaces and concircular helices in space forms

Differential Geometry 2026-01-27 v1

Abstract

In this paper, we find a full description of concircular hypersurfaces in space forms as a special family of ruled hypersurfaces. We also characterize concircular helices in 3-dimensional space forms by means of a differential equation involving the concircular factor and their curvature and torsion, and we show that the concircular helices are precisely the geodesics of the concircular surfaces.
