This paper explains the construction of all hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature -- cmc -- and exactly two principal curvatures on any space form endowed with a semi-riemannian metric. Here we will consider riemannian hypersurfaces as…
We classify minimal hypersurfaces in $R^n \times S^m$, $n,m \geq 2$, which are invariant by the canonical action of $O(n) \times O(m)$. We also construct compact and noncompact examples of invariant hypersurfaces of constant mean curvature.…
In this paper, we consider a closed Riemannian manifold $M^{n+1}$ with dimension $3\leq n+1\leq 7$, and a compact Lie group $G$ acting as isometries on $M$ with cohomogeneity at least $3$. Suppose the union of non-principal orbits…
We construct inhomogeneous isoparametric families of hypersurfaces with non-austere focal set on each symmetric space of non-compact type and rank greater than or equal to 3. If the rank is greater than or equal to 4, there are infinitely…
We study hypersurfaces either in the sphere \s{n+1} or in the hyperbolic space \h{n+1} whose position vector $x$ satisfies the condition $L_kx=Ax+b$, where $L_k$ is the linearized operator of the $(k+1)$-th mean curvature of the…
We investigate proper biharmonic hypersurfaces with at most three distinct principal curvatures in space forms. We obtain the full classification of proper biharmonic hypersurfaces in 4-dimensional space forms.
A hypersurface without umbilics in the n+1 dimensional Euclidean space is known to be determined by the Moebius metric and the Moebius second fundamental form up to a Moebius transformation when n>2. In this paper we consider Moebius…

In this paper we are concerned with the problem of finding hypersurfaces of constant curvature and prescribed boundary in the Euclidean space, using the theory of fully nonlinear elliptic equations. We prove that if the given data admits a…
This is an updated version of a paper which appeared in the proceedings of the 1979 Berlin Colloquium on Global Differential Geometry. This paper contains the original exposition together with some notes by the authors made in 2025 (as…
We give some classifications of biharmonic hypersurfaces with constant scalar curvature. These include biharmonic Einstein hypersurfaces in space forms, compact biharmonic hypersurfaces with constant scalar curvature in a sphere, and some…
We study the geometry of homogeneous hypersurfaces and their focal sets in complex hyperbolic spaces. In particular, we provide a characterization of the focal set in terms of its second fundamental form and determine the principal…
In this paper, we study $n$-dimensional complete minimal hypersurfaces in a unit sphere. We prove that an $n$-dimensional complete minimal hypersurface with constant scalar curvature in a unit sphere with $f_3$ constant is isometric to the…
Let $M^n$ be either a simply connected space form or a rank-one symmetric space of noncompact type. We consider Weingarten hypersurfaces of $M\times\mathbb R$, which are those whose principal curvatures $k_1,\dots ,k_n$ and angle function…
This paper is a continuation of a paper with the same title of the last two authors. In the first part of the present paper, we give a unified geometric proof that both focal submanifolds of every isoparametric hypersurface in spheres with…
We classify hypersurfaces of rank two of Euclidean space $\R^{n+1}$ that admit genuine isometric deformations in $\R^{n+2}$. That an isometric immersion $\hat f\colon\,M^n\to\R^{n+2}$ is a genuine isometric deformation of a hypersurface…
Integral invariants obtained from Principal Component Analysis on a small kernel domain of a submanifold encode important geometric information classically defined in differential-geometric terms. We generalize to hypersurfaces in any…

In this paper we study sets in the $n$-dimensional Heisenberg group $\hhn$ which are critical points, under a volume constraint, of the sub-Riemannian perimeter associated to the distribution of horizontal vector fields in $\hhn$. We define…
For a complete noncompact connected Riemannian manifold with bounded geometry $M^n$, we prove that the isoperimetric profile function $I_{M^n}$ is a locally $\left(1-\frac{1}{n}\right)$-H\"older continuous function and so in particular it…
