Let $M^n$ be a biharmonic hypersurface with constant scalar curvature in a space form $\mathbb M^{n+1}(c)$. We show that $M^n$ has constant mean curvature if $c>0$ and $M^n$ is minimal if $c\leq0$, provided that the number of distinct…

In this paper we extend Yau's celebrated Liouville theorem to the biharmonic case. Namely, we show that in a complete Riemannian manifold with a pole and nonnegative Ricci curvature, any biharmonic function of subquadratic growth must be…

In this note, we generalize biharmonic equation for rotationally symmetric maps ([4], [16], [10]) to equivariant maps between model spaces and use it to give a complete classification of rotationally symmetric conformal biharmonic maps from…

In this paper we prove that every Riemannian metric on a locally conformally flat manifold with umbilic boundary can be conformally deformed to a scalar flat metric having constant mean curvature. This result can be seen as a generalization…

We characterize homogeneous hypersurfaces in complex space forms which arise as critical points of a higher order energy functional. As a consequence, we obtain existence and non-existence results for $\mathbb{CP}^n$ and $\mathbb{CH}^n$,…

We show that if $M$ is an Einstein hypersurface in an irreducible Riemannian symmetric space $\overline{M}$ of rank greater than $1$ (the classification in the rank-one case was previously known), then either $\overline{M}$ is of noncompact…

B.-Y. Chen famously conjectured that every submanifold of Euclidean space with harmonic mean curvature vector is minimal. In this note we establish a much more general statement for a large class of submanifolds satisfying a growth…

In this paper we shall assume that the ambient manifold is a pseudo-Riemannian space form $N^{m+1}_t(c)$ of dimension $m+1$ and index $t$ ($m\geq2$ and $1 \leq t\leq m$). We shall study hypersurfaces $M^{m}_{t'}$ which are polyharmonic of…

In this paper, we prove the generalized Chen's conjecture for (F,F')-biharmonic map, which is a critical point of the transversal bienergy functional

he celebrated formula of Schlafli relates the variation of the dihedral angles of a smooth family of polyhedra in a space form and the variation of volume. We give a smooth analogue of this classical formula -- our result relates the…

In this paper, we have studied biharmonic hypersurfaces in space form $\bar{M}^{n+1}(c)$ with constant sectional curvature $c$. We have obtained that biharmonic hypersurfaces $M^{n}$ with at most three distinct principal curvatures in…

In this note, we prove the existence of one particular class of starshaped compact hypersurfaces, by deriving global curvature estimates for such hypersurfaces; this generalizes the main result in [Hypersurfaces of prescribed mixed…

Given a Riemannian manifold $M,$ and an open interval $I\subset\mathbb{R},$ we characterize nontrivial totally umbilical hypersurfaces of the product $M\times I$ -- as well as of warped products $I\times_\omega M$ -- as those which are…

This paper initiates the study of the Einstein equation on homogeneous supermanifolds. First, we produce explicit curvature formulas for graded Riemannian metrics on these spaces. Next, we present a construction of homogeneous…

We classify the space-like biharmonic surfaces in 3-dimension pseudo-Riemannian space form, and construct explicit examples of proper biharmonic hypersurfaces in general ADS space.

An isometric immersion $X: \Sigma^n \longrightarrow \mathbb{E}^{n+1}$ is biharmonic if $\Delta^2 X = 0$, i.e. if $\Delta H =0$, where $\Delta$ and $H$ are the metric Laplacian and the mean curvature vector field of $\Sigma^n$ respectively.…

The bienergy of smooth maps between Riemannian manifolds, when restricted to unit vector fields, yields two different variational problems depending on whether one takes the full functional or just the vertical contribution. Their critical…
