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 prove some rigidity results about embedded minimal hypersurface M ⊂ ℝn+1 with compact ∂M that has one end which is regular at infinity. We first show that if M ⊂ ℝn+1 meets a hyperplane in a constant angle ≥ ��/2, then M is part of an n-dimensional catenoid. We show that if M meets a sphere in a constant angle and ∂M lies in a hemisphere determined by the hyperplane through the center of the sphere and perpendicular to the limit normal vector nM of the end, then M is part of either a hyperplane or an n-dimensional catenoid. We also show that if M is tangent to a C2 convex hypersurface S, which is symmetric about a hyperplane P and nM is parallel to P, then M is also symmetric about P. In special, if S is rotationally symmetric about the xn+1-axis and nM = en+1, then M is also rotationally symmetric about the xn+1-axis.

In this paper, we prove that minimal hypersurfaces when n $\geq$ 3 and nonzero constant mean curvature hypersurfaces when n $\geq$ 2 foliated by spheres in parallel horizontal hyperplanes in $\mathbb{H}^n{\times}\mathbb{R}$ must be rotationally symmetric.

Let M be a minimally immersed closed hypersurface in $S^{n+1}$, II the second fundamental form and $S = \Vert II \Vert^2$. It is well known that if $0 \leq S \leq n$, then $S \equiv 0$ or $S \equiv n$ and totally geodesic hypersheres and Clifford tori are the only possible minimal hypersurfaces with $S \equiv 0$ or $S \equiv n$ ([6], [2]). From these results, Chern suggested some questions on the study of compact minimal hypersurfaces on the sphere with S =constant: what are the next possible values of S to n, and does in the ambient sphere\ulcorner By the way, S is defined extrinsically but, in fact, it is an intrinsic invariant for the minimal hypersurface, i.e., S = n(n-1) - R, where R is the scalar, curvature of M. Some partial answers have been obtained for dim M = 3: Assuming $M^3 \subset S^4$ is closed and minimal with S =constant, de Almeida and Brito [1] proved that if $R \geq 0$ (or equivalently $S \leq 6$), then S = 0, 3 or 6, Peng and Terng ([5]) proved that if M has 3 distint principal curvatures, then S = 6, and in [3] Chang showed that if there exists a point which has two distinct principal curvatures, then S = 3. Hence the problem for dim M = 3 is completely done. For higher dimensional cases, not much has been known and these problems seem to be very hard without imposing some more conditions on M.

In this paper we prove the following : Let M be a real (2n-1)-dimensional compact minimal semi-invariant submanifold in a complex projective space P(sub)n+1C. If the scalar curvature $\geq$2(n-1)(2n+1), then m is a homogeneous type $A_1$ or $A_2$. Next suppose that the third fundamental form n satisfies dn = 2$\theta\omega$ for a certain scalar $\theta$$\neq$c/2 and $\theta$$\neq$c/4 (4n-1)/(2n-1), where $\omega$(X,Y) = g(X,øY) for any vectors X and Y on a semi-invariant submanifold of codimension 3 in a complex space form M(sub)n+1 (c). Then we prove that M has constant principal curvatures corresponding the shape operator in the direction of the distingusihed normal and the structure vector ξ is an eigenvector of A if and only if M is locally congruent to a homogeneous minimal real hypersurface of M(sub)n (c).

In this article, we study ruled hypersurfaces in a Lorentz-Minkowski space which has finite type immersion. As a result, we give a complete classification of ruled hypersurfaces or finite type immersion into a Lorentz-Minkowski space ${\mathbb{L}}^m$.

We use the so-called pseudoinversion of degenerate metrics technique on foliated compact null hypersurface, $M^{n+1}$, in Lorentzian manifold ${\overline{M}}^{n+2}$, to derive an integral formula involving the r-th order mean curvatures of its foliations, ${\mathcal{F}}^n$. We apply our formula to minimal foliations, showing that, under certain geometric conditions, they are isomorphic to n-dimensional spheres. We also use the formula to deduce expressions for total mean curvatures of such foliations.

In this note, we investigate stable minimal hypersurfaces with weighted Poincar$\acute{e}$ inequality. We show that we still get the vanishing property without assuming that the hypersurfaces is non-totally geodesic. This generalizes a result in [2].

In this note, we revise some vanishing and finiteness results on hypersurfaces with finite index in ℝⁿ⁺¹. When the hypersurface is stable minimal, we show that there is no nontrivial L^2p harmonic 1-form for some p. The our range of p is better than those in [7]. With the same range of p, we also give finiteness results on minimal hypersurfaces with finite index.
