In 1968, Simons introduced the concept of index for hypersurfaces immersed into the Euclidean sphere S^{n+1}. Intuitively, the index measures the number of independent directions in which a given hypersurface fails to minimize area. The…

A classical problem in constant mean curvature hypersurface theory is, for given $H\geq 0$, to determine whether a compact submanifold $\Gamma^{n-1}$ of codimension two in Euclidean space $\R_+^{n+1}$, having a single valued orthogonal…

A hypersurface $M$ in the unit sphere $S^n \subset {\bf R}^{n+1}$ is Dupin if along each curvature surface of $M$, the corresponding principal curvature is constant. If the number $g$ of distinct principal curvatures is constant on $M$,…

A hypersurface $M^{n-1}$ in a real space-form ${\bf R}^n$, $S^n$ or $H^n$ is isoparametric if it has constant principal curvatures. For ${\bf R}^n$ and $H^n$, the classification of isoparametric hypersurfaces is complete and relatively…

Let $M^4\to \mathbb{S}^5$ be a closed immersed minimal hypersurface with constant squared length of the second fundamental form $S$ in a $5$-dimensional sphere $\mathbb{S}^5$. In this paper, we prove that if $3$-mean curvature $H_3$ and the…

We study the classification of immersed constant mean curvature (CMC) spheres in the homogeneous Riemannian 3-manifold Sol_3, i.e., the only Thurston 3-dimensional geometry where this problem remains open. Our main result states that, for…

Given a domain $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^{m+1}$ and a $k$-dimensional non-degenerate minimal submanifold $K$ of $\pa \Omega$ with $1\le k\le m-1$, we prove the existence of a family of embedded constant mean curvature hypersurfaces which as…

Brendle proved Lawson conjecture about minimal embedded torus in the round three-dimensional sphere. Carlotto and Schulz constructed a minimal embedded three-dimensional hypertorus in the round four-dimensional sphere and conjectured that…

Liebmann's Theorem asserts that a compact, connected, convex surface with constant mean curvature (CMC) in the Euclidean space must be a totally umbilical sphere. In this article we extend Liebmann's result to hypersurfaces with boundary.…

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…

We show that $H$-hypersurfaces of $\mathbb{H}^{n}\times \mathbb{R}$ contained in a vertical cylinder and with Ricci curvature with strong quadratic decay have mean curvature $| H| > (n-1)/n$.

It follows from the 2004 work of the first author, X.Huang, and D. Zaitsev that any local CR embedding $f$ of a strictly psedoconvex hypersurface $M^{2n+1}\subset\bC^{n+1}$ into the sphere $\bS^{2N+1}\subset \bC^{N+1}$ is rigid, i.e.\ any…

In hyperbolic 3-space $\mathbb{H}^3$ surfaces of constant mean curvature $H$ come in three types, corresponding to the cases $0 \leq H < 1$, $H = 1$, $H > 1$. Via the Lawson correspondence the latter two cases correspond to constant mean…
