It is well-known that for a surface in a 3-dimensional real space form the constancy of the mean curvature is equivalent to the harmonicity of the Gauss map. However, this is not true in general for surfaces in an arbitrary 3-dimensional…

In this article we study surfaces in $\mathbb{S}^3(1) \times \mathbb{R}$ for which the $\mathbb{R}$-direction makes a constant angle with the normal plane. We give a complete classification for such surfaces with parallel mean curvature…

We classify complete orientable hypersurfaces of constant isotropic curvature in space forms. We show that such a hypersurface has constant mean curvature only if it is an isoparametric hypersurface, and that it is minimal if and only if it…

We study stable constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurfaces $\Sigma$ in slabs in a product space $M\times\r,$ where $M$ is an orientable Riemannian manifold. We obtain a characterization of stable cylinders and prove that if $\Sigma$ is not…

We study the existence problem for achronal hypersurfaces $M \hookrightarrow \overline{M}$ in a globally hyperbolic spacetime, whose mean curvature is a prescribed -- possibly singular -- source, and whose boundary is a given smooth…

We study the principal curvatures of properly embedded constant mean curvature hypersurfaces in the Anti-de Sitter space $\mathbb{H}^{n,1}$. We generalize the notion of convex hull and give an upper bound on the principal curvatures which…

We study the constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space whose asymptotic boundaries are closed codimension-1 submanifolds in sphere at infinity. We consider CMC hypersurfaces as generalizations of minimal hypersurfaces.…
