In this paper, we show that ``$L$-complete null hypersurfaces'' (i.e. ruled hypersurfaces foliated by entirety of light-like lines) as wave fronts in the $(n+1)$-dimensional Lorentz-Minkowski space are canonically induced by hypersurfaces…

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…

Given a positive function $F$ on $\mathbb S^n$ which satisfies a convexity condition, for $1\leq r\leq n$, we define for hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ the $r$-th anisotropic mean curvature function $H_{r; F}$, a generalization of the…

In this paper, we establish some rigidity theorems for space-like hypersurfaces in Minkowski space by using a Weinberger-type approach with P-functions and integral identities. Firstly, for space-like hypersurfaces $M$ represented as graphs…

Minimal surfaces and domain walls play important roles in various contexts of spacetime physics as well as material science. In this paper, we first review the Bernstein conjecture, which asserts that a plane is the only globally well…
