We study codimension-two spacelike submanifolds in Lorentzian spacetimes that admit umbilical lightlike normal directions. We show that such submanifolds are subject to strong geometric and topological constraints, establishing explicit…
We classify real hypersurfaces with isometric Reeb flow in the complex quadrics Q^m for m > 2. We show that m is even, say m = 2k, and any such hypersurface is an open part of a tube around a k-dimensional complex projective space CP^k…
We investigate the possibility of defining states on timelike hypersurfaces in quantum field theory. To this end we consider hyperplanes in the real massive Klein-Gordon theory using the Schroedinger representation. We find a well defined…
In this paper, we extend a technique due to Romero, Rubio and Salamanca establishing sufficient conditions to guarantee the parabolicity of complete spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in a weighted generalized Robertson-Walker spacetime whose…
In this paper, we classify Euclidean umbilic-free hypersurfaces with semi-parallel Moebius second fundamental form and three distinct principal curvatures. This completes the classification of such hypersurfaces initiated by Hu, Xie and…
We prove that every complete non-compact manifold of finite volume contains a (possibly non-compact) minimal hypersurface of finite volume. The main tool is the following result of independent interest: if a region $U$ can be swept out by a…
The paper collects different approaches and viewpoints on bilinear forms and hermitian forms around isolated hypersurface singularities. It gives the relations between them in precise formulas. It does not contain new results.
This paper looks at the splitting problem for globally hyperbolic spacetimes with timelike Ricci curvature bounded below containing a (spacelike, acausal, future causally complete) hypersurface with mean curvature bounded from above. For…
We propose a Lie geometric point of view on flat fronts in hyperbolic space as special omega-surfaces and discuss the Lie geometric deformation of flat fronts.
We show the geometric consequences that the holographic principle has on the spacetime. Namely, we prove that complete spacelike hypersurfaces in a spacetime that satisfies the holographic principle are non-parabolic. This has important…
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…
In the four-dimensional pseudo-Euclidean space with neutral metric there are three types of rotational surfaces with two-dimensional axis - rotational surfaces of elliptic, hyperbolic or parabolic type. A surface whose mean curvature vector…
The paper is focused on the four-dimensional visualization of hypersurfaces represented by implicit equations without their parametrization. We describe a general method to find shadow boundaries in an arbitrary dimension and apply it in a…
We present a general existence proof for a wide class of non-linear elliptic equations which can be applied to problems with barrier conditions without specifying any assumptions guaranteeing the uniqueness or local uniqueness of particular…
We prove several new transversality results for formal CR maps between formal real hypersurfaces in complex space. Both cases of finite and infinite type hypersurfaces are tackled in this note.
In this paper we collect some results on the obstruction spaces for rational surface singularities and minimally elliptic surface singularities. Based on the known results we calculate higher obstruction spaces for such surface…
We study/construct (proper and non-proper) Morse functions on complete Riemannian manifolds, the level hypersurfaces of which have positive mean curvatures at all non-critical points. We show, for instance, that if a complete Rieannin…

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…
We show that there are strictly pseudoconvex, real algebraic hypersurfaces in $\bC^{n+1}$ that cannot be locally embedded into a sphere in $\bC^{N+1}$ for any $N$. In fact, we show that there are strictly pseudoconvex, real algebraic…
