Compact graphs over a sphere of constant second order mean curvature

Abstract: Abstract. The aim of this work is to show that a compact smooth starshaped hypersurface Σ n in the Euclidean sphere S n+1 whose second function of curvature S 2 is a positive constant must be a geodesic sphere S n (ρ). This generalizes a result obtained by Jellett in 1853 for surfaces Σ 2 with constant mean curvature in the Euclidean space R 3 as well as a recent result of the authors for this type of hypersurface in the Euclidean sphere S n+1 with constant mean curvature. In order to prove our theorem we shal… Show more

“…Here, motivated by the works [7] and [11], we consider spacelike hypersurfaces with constant r-th mean curvature in GRW spacetimes of constant sectional curvature in order to classify the strongly r-stable ones. For this, we will use a formula due to Barros and Sousa [8] for a operator L r , naturally attached to the operators P r that can be defined using the r-th mean curvatures, for a suitable support function. More precisely, we will prove the following result: be a closed strongly r-stable spacelike hypersurface.…”

“…Although this operator appeared in geometry many years ago (see, e.g., [21,29]), there is a continues increase of applications of this operator in different areas of geometry in the last years (see, among others, [1,2,3,8,10,17,18,23,24,25,28]). …”

“…On the other hand, many authors (see, among the others, [1,3,6,8,12,16]) investigated recently higher-order mean curvatures of hypersurfaces using the Newton transformations T r of the shape operator. In this article, we show that these transformations can also be applied successfully for foliations.…”
