Abstract

In this paper, we classify the hypersurfaces in Sn×R\mathbb{S}^{n}\times \mathbb{R} and Hn×R\mathbb{H}^{n}\times\mathbb{R}, n3n\neq 3, with gg distinct constant principal curvatures, g{1,2,3}g\in\{1,2,3\}, where Sn\mathbb{S}^{n} and Hn\mathbb{H}^{n} denote the sphere and hyperbolic space of dimension nn, respectively. We prove that such hypersurfaces are isoparametric in those spaces. Furthermore, we find a necessary and sufficient condition for an isoparametric hypersurface in Sn×RRn+2\mathbb{S}^{n}\times \mathbb{R}\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+2} and Hn×RLn+2\mathbb{H}^{n}\times\mathbb{R}\subset \mathbb{L}^{n+2} with flat normal bundle, having constant principal curvatures.
