In this paper, we define a totally umbilic hypersurface of first order and show that a totally umbilic hypersurface of first order in an Einstein manifold has a parallel second fundamental form. Furthermore we prove that a complete, simply connected and totally umbilic hypersurface of first order in a space of constant curvature is a Riemannian product of Einstein manifolds. Finally we show a proper example which is a totally umbilic hypersurface of first order but not a totally umbilic hypersurface.

We investigate the containment measure of one domain to contain in another domain in a plane $X^{\kappa}$ of constant curvature. We obtain some Bonnesen-type inequalities involving the area, length, radius of the inscribed and the circumscribed disc of a domain D in $X^{\kappa}$.

We associate the surfaces of constant Gaussian curvature K = 1 with no umbilics to a subclass of the solutions of $O(4,\;1)/O(3){\times}O(1,\;1)-system$. From this correspondence, we can construct new K = 1 surfaces from a known K = 1 surface by using a kind of dressing actions on the solutions of this system.

Let $G=O(2){\times}O(2){\times}O(2)$. Then a closed G-invariant minimal hypersurface with constant scalar curvature in $S^5$ is a product of spheres, i.e., the square norm of its second fundamental form, S = 4.

In this paper we determine certain class of $n$-dimensional QR-submanifolds of maximal QR-dimension isometrically immersed in a quaternionic space form, that is, a quaternionic K$\ddot{a}$hler manifold of constant Q-sectional curvature under the conditions (3.1) concerning with the second fundamental form and the induced almost contact 3-structure.

A new type of Riemannian manifold called semirecurrent manifold has been defined and some of its geometric properties are studied. Among others we show that the scalar curvature of semirecurrent manifold is constant and hence semirecurrent manifold is also concircularly recurrent. In addition, we show that the associated 1-form (resp. the associated vector field) of semirecurrent manifold is closed (resp. an eigenvector of its Ricci tensor). Furthermore, we prove that if a Riemannian product manifold is semirecurrent, then either one decomposition manifold is locally symmetric or the other decomposition manifold is a space of constant curvature.

We study nondegenerate immersions of Riemannian manifolds of constant sectional curvatures into Lorentzian manifolds of the same constant sectional curvatures with flat normal bundles. We also give a method to produce such immersions using the so-called Grassmannian system. .

On a compact n-dimensional manifold M, it has been conjectured that a critical point of the total scalar curvature, restricted to the space of metrics with constant scalar curvature of unit volume, is Einstein. In this paper, after derivng an interesting curvature identity, we show that the conjecture is true in dimension three and four when g is weakly Einstein. In higher dimensional case $n{\geq}5$, we also show that the conjecture is true under an additional Ricci curvature bound. Moreover, we prove that the manifold is isometric to a standard n-sphere when it is n-dimensional weakly Einstein and the kernel of the linearized scalar curvature operator is nontrivial.

Let M be a connected n-dimensional submanifold of a Euclidean space $E^{n+k}$ equipped with the induced metric and ${\Delta}$ its Laplacian. If the position vector x of M is decomposed as a sum of three vectors $x=x_1+x_2+x_0$ where two vectors $x_1$ and $x_2$ are non-constant eigenvectors of the Laplacian, i.e., ${\Delta}x_i={\lambda}_ix_i$, i = 1, 2 (${\lambda}_i{\in}R$) and $x_0$ is a constant vector, then, M is called a 2-type submanifold. In this paper we proved that a connected 2-type hypersurface M in $E^{n+1}$ whose postion vector x satisfies ${\langle}{\Delta}x,x-x_0{\rangle}=c$ for a constant c, where ${\langle}$, ${\rangle}$ is the usual inner product in $E^{n+1}$, is of null 2-type and has constant mean curvature and scalar curvature.

We give area and height estimates for cmc-graphs over a bounded planar $C^{2,{\alpha}}$ domain ${\Omega}{\subset}\mathbb{R}^3$. For a constant H satisfying $H^2{\mid}{\Omega}{\mid}{\leq}9{\pi}/16$, we show that the height $h$ of H-graphs over ${\Omega}$ with vanishing boundary satisfies ${\mid}h{\mid}$ < $(\tilde{r}/2{\pi})H{\mid}{\Omega}{\mid}$, where $\tilde{r}$ is the middle zero of $(x-1)(H^2{\mid}{\Omega}{\mid}(x+2)^2-9{\pi}(x-1))$. We use this height estimate to prove the following existence result for cmc H-graphs: for a constant H satisfying $H^2{\mid}{\Omega}{\mid}$ < $(\sqrt{297}-13){\pi}/8$, there exists an H-graph with vanishing boundary.
