Abstract

We proved that a conformal immersion of M0n0×M1n1M_0^{n_0}\times M_1^{n_1} as an hipersurface in a Euclidean space must be an extrinsic product of immersions, under the assumption that n0,n12n_0, n_1 \geq 2 and that M0n0×M1n1M^{n_0}_0\times M^{n_1}_1 is not conformally flat. We also stated a similar theorem for an arbitrary number of factors, more precisely, a conformal immersion f ⁣:M0n0××MknkRn+kf\colon M^{n_0}_0 \times \cdots \times M^{n_k}_k \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{n+k} must be an extrinsic product of immersions if one of the factors admits a plane with vanishing curvature and the remaining factors are not flat.
