A New Characterization of Totally Umbilical Hypersurfaces in de Sitter Space ()
Affiliation(s)
ABSTRACT
It is shown that a compact spacelike hypersurface which is contained in the chronological future (or past) of an equator of de Sitter space is a totally umbilical round sphere if the kth mean curvature function Hk is a linear combination of Hk+1,…, Hn. This is a new angle to characterize round spheres.
