We generalize a theorem by J. Choe on capillary surfaces for arbitrary 3-dimensional spaces of constant curvature. The main tools in this paper are an extension of a theorem of H. Hopf due to S.-S. Chern and two index lemmas by J. Choe.

We prove some rigidity and classification results for graphs with prescribed mean curvature and locally constant Dirichlet and Neumann data, for instance as they appear in capillarity problems. We consider domains in Riemannian manifolds,…

In [3] and [11] the authors showed the existence of a Codazzi pair defined on any constant mean curvature surface in the homogeneous spaces E($\kappa$,$\tau$) associated to the Abresch-Rosenberg differential. In this paper, we use the…

Liebmann's Theorem asserts that a compact, connected, convex surface with constant mean curvature (CMC) in the Euclidean space must be a totally umbilical sphere. In this article we extend Liebmann's result to hypersurfaces with boundary.…

In 1951, H. Hopf proved that the only surfaces, homeomorphic to the sphere, with constant mean curvature in the Euclidean space are the round (geometrical) spheres. These results were generalized by S. S. Chern, and then by Eschenburg and…
