Abstract

We first show that every isoparametric hypersurface in Sn×Rm\mathbb{S}^{n}\times \mathbb{R}^{m} or Hn×Rm\mathbb{H}^{n}\times \mathbb{R}^{m} possesses a constant angle function with respect to the canonical product structure. Exploiting this rigidity, we achieve a complete classification of isoparametric and homogeneous hypersurfaces in these product spaces. Furthermore, we prove that an isoparametric hypersurface in Sn×Rm\mathbb{S}^{n}\times \mathbb{R}^{m} or Hn×Rm\mathbb{H}^{n}\times \mathbb{R}^{m} also has constant principal curvatures.
