We show that ruled real hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature in the complex projective and hyperbolic spaces must be minimal. This provides their classification, by virtue of a result of Lohnherr and Reckziegel.
In this paper, we shall prove that space-like surfaces with bounded mean curvature functions in real analytic Lorentzian 3-manifolds can change their causality to time-like surfaces only if the mean curvature functions tend to zero.…
