We prove a Simons type equation for non-minimal surfaces with parallel mean curvature vector (pmc surfaces) in $M^3(c)\times\mathbb{R}$, where $M^3(c)$ is a 3-dimensional space form. Then, we use this equation in order to characterize…

We consider the inverse mean curvature flow by parallel hypersurfaces in space forms. We show that such a flow exists if and only if the initial hypersurface is isoparametric. The flow is characterized by an algebraic equation satisfied by…

We prove a vertical halfspace theorem for surfaces with constant mean curvature $H={1/2},$ properly immersed in the product space $\h^2\times\re,$ where $\h^2$ is the hyperbolic plane and $\re$ is the set of real numbers. The proof is a…
