In 1997, H. Li [12] proposed a conjecture: if $M^n(n{\geqslant}3)$ is a complete spacelike hypersurface in de Sitter space $S^{n+1}_1(1)$ with constant normalized scalar curvature R satisfying $\frac{n-2}{n}{\leqslant}R{\leqslant}1$, then is $M^n$ totally umbilical? Recently, F. E. C. Camargo et al. ([5]) partially proved the conjecture. In this paper, from a different viewpoint, we study closed convex spacelike hypersurface $M^n$ in locally symmetric Lorentz space $L^{n+1}_1$ and also prove that $M^n$ is totally umbilical if the square of length of second fundamental form of the closed convex spacelike hypersurface $M^n$ is constant, i.e., Theorem 1. On the other hand, we obtain that if the sectional curvature of the closed convex spacelike hypersurface $M^n$ in locally symmetric Lorentz space $L^{n+1}_1$ satisfies $K(M^n)$ > 0, then $M^n$ is totally umbilical, i.e., Theorem 2.

Let M be a linear Weingarten spacelike hypersurface in a locally symmetric Lorentz space with R = aH + b, where R and H are the normalized scalar curvature and the mean curvature, respectively. In this paper, we give some conditions for the complete hypersurface M to be totally umbilical.

The closed spacelike hypersurfaces with higher order mean curvature is discussed in a de Sitter space. The hypersurface is proved stable if and only if it is totally umbilical.

We investigate the spacelike hypersurface Mⁿ with constant mean curvature (CMC) in a Lorentz Einstein manifold Lⁿ⁺¹₁, which is supposed to obey some appropriate curvature constraints. Applying a suitable Simons type formula jointly with the well known generalized maximum principle of Omori-Yau, we obtain some rigidity classification theorems and pinching theorems of hypersurfaces.

We calculate volume ratio of a hypersurface orthogonal to a timelike geodesic relative to that of a hypersurface in the FLRW space-time.

In this paper we investigate complete spacelike (r - 1)-maximal (i.e., $H_r\;{\equiv}\;0$) hypersurfaces with two distinct principal curvatures in the anti-de Sitter space $\mathbb{H}_1^{n+1}$(-1). We give a characterization of the hyperbolic cylinder.

Let M be a complete spacelike hypersurface in the (n + 1)-dimensional Minkowski space ${\mathbb{L}}^{n+1}$. Suppose that every unit speed curve X(s) on M satisfies ${\langle}X^{\prime\prime}(s),X^{\prime\prime}s){\rangle}{\geq}-1/r^2$ and there exists a point $p{\in}M$ such that for every unit speed geodesic X(s) of M through the point p, ${\langle}X^{\prime\prime}(s),X^{\prime\prime}s){\rangle}=-1/r^2$ holds. Then, we show that up to isometries of ${\mathbb{L}}^{n+1}$, M is the hyperbolic space $H^n(r)$.

In this paper we address focal points and treat manifolds (M, g) whose Lorentzian metric tensors g have a spacelike $C^{0}$-hypersurface $\Sigma$ [10]. We apply Jacobi fields for such manifolds, and check the local length maximizing properties of $C^1$-geodesics. The condition of maximality of timelike curves(geodesics) passing $C^{0}$-hypersurface is studied.ied.

In this note, we apply a maximum principle related to volume growth of a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold, which was recently obtained by Alías, Caminha and do Nascimento in [4], to establish new uniqueness and nonexistence results concerning maximal spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in a generalized Robertson-Walker (GRW) spacetime obeying the timelike convergence condition. A study of entire solutions for the maximal hypersurface equation in GRW spacetimes is also made and, in particular, a new Calabi-Bernstein type result is presented.

We provide a study of lightlike hypersurfaces of a generalized Robertson-Walker (GRW) space-time. In particular, we investigate lightlike hypersurfaces with curvature invariance, parallel second fundamental forms, totally umbilical second fundamental forms, null sectional curvatures and null Ricci curvatures, respectively.
