Given a vector field $X$ in a Riemannian manifold, a hypersurface is said to have a canonical principal direction relative to $X$ if the projection of $X$ onto the tangent space of the hypersurface gives a principal direction. We give…

In this paper we characterize compact and complete hypersurfaces with some constant higher order mean curvature into warped product spaces. Our approach is based on the use of a new trace operator version of the Omori-Yau maximum principle…

We investigate proper biharmonic hypersurfaces with at most three distinct principal curvatures in space forms. We obtain the full classification of proper biharmonic hypersurfaces in 4-dimensional space forms.

We study stable compact constant mean curvature surfaces in the product spaces S2 X R and H2 X R and in some other Riemannian 3-manifolds.

In this paper, we give a construction of curvature-adapted hypersurfaces in the product $G_1/K_1\times G_2/K_2$ of (Riemannian) symmetric spaces $G_i/K_i$ ($i=1,2$). By this construction, we obtain many examples of curvature-adapted…

In this paper we study constant mean curvature surfaces $\Sigma$ in a product space, $\mathbb{M}^2\times \mathbb{R}$, where $\mathbb{M}^2$ is a complete Riemannian manifold. We assume the angle function $\nu = \meta{N}{\partial_t}$ does not…

We consider compact hypersurfaces in an $(n+1)$-dimensional either Riemannian or Lorentzian space $N^{n+1}$ endowed with a conformal Killing vector field. For such hypersurfaces, we establish an integral formula which, especially in the…

We prove that, in Minkowski space, if a spacelike, $(n-1)$-convex hypersurface $M$ with constant $\sigma_{n-1}$ curvature has bounded principal curvatures, then $M$ is convex. Moreover, if $M$ is not strictly convex, after an…

We consider hypersurfaces of products $M\times\mathbb R$ with constant $r$-th mean curvature $H_r\ge 0$ (to be called $H_r$-hypersurfaces), where $M$ is an arbitrary Riemannian $n$-manifold. We develop a general method for constructing…

Consider a complete Riemannian manifold $M^n$ and let $\Sigma^n$ be an orientable hypersurface of the product manifold $M\times\mathbb{R}$ endowed with its standard product metric $\langle \,,\, \rangle.$ Let $\nabla\xi$ denote the gradient…

In this paper, we introduce isoparametric functions and isoparametric hypersurfaces in Finsler manifolds and give the necessary and sufficient conditions for a transnormal function to be isoparametric. We then prove that hyperplanes,…

The purpose of this article is to classify the real hypersurfaces in complex space forms of dimension 2 that are both Levi-flat and minimal. The main results are as follows: When the curvature of the complex space form is nonzero, there is…

We study surfaces with one constant principal curvature in Riemannian and Lorentzian three-dimensional space forms. Away from umbilic points they are characterized as one-parameter foliations by curves of constant curvature, each of these…

Hypersurfaces of manifolds of constant nonzero sectional curvature are classificated according their restricted homogeneous holonomy groups.

Riemannian manifolds of quasi-constant sectional curvatures (QC-manifolds) are divided into two basic classes: with positive or negative horizontal sectional curvatures. We prove that the Riemannian QC-manifolds with positive horizontal…

Our aim is to study invariant hypersurfaces immersed in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, whose mean curvature is given as a linear function in the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^n$ depending on its Gauss map. These hypersurfaces are closely…
