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.

In this article, we show that if a semi-Riemannian space form carries a conformal vector field V of which the tangential part $V^T$ on a connected hypersurface $M^N$ ecomes a conformal vector field and the normal part $V^N on $M^N$ does not vanish identically, then $M^N$ is totally umbilic. Furthermore, we give a complete description of conformal vector fields on semi-Riemannian space forms.

The object of the present paper is to study a decomposable $(APS)_n$ and hypersurfaces of $(APS)_n$. Also, the existence of a decomposable $(APS)_n$ is ensured by a proper example.

In this paper, we study the geometry of lightlike real hyper-surfaces of an indefinite Kaehler manifold. The main result is a characterization theorem for lightlike real hypersurfaces M of an indefinite complex space form $\bar{M}(c)$ such that the screen distribution is totally umbilic.

We say that an isometric immersed hypersurface x : $M^n\;{\rightarrow}\;{\mathbb{R}}^{n+1}$ is of $L_k$-finite type ($L_k$-f.t.) if $x\;=\;{\sum}^p_{i=0}x_i$ for some positive integer p < $\infty$, $x_i$ : $M{\rightarrow}{\mathbb{R}}^{n+1}$ is smooth and $L_kx_i={\lambda}_ix_i$, ${\lambda}_i\;{\in}\;{\mathbb{R}}$, $0{\leq}i{\leq}p$, $L_kf=trP_k\;{\circ}\;{\nabla}^2f$ for $f\;{\in}\'C^{\infty}(M)$, where $P_k$ is the kth Newton transformation, ${\nabla}^2f$ is the Hessian of f, $L_kx\;=\;(L_kx^1,\;{\ldots},\;L_kx^{n+1})$, $x=(x^1,\;{\ldots},\;x^{n+1})$. In this article we study the following(hyper)surfaces in ${\mathbb{R}}^{n+1}$ from the view point of $L_1$-finiteness type: totally umbilic ones, generalized cylinders $S^m(r){\times}{\mathbb{R}}^{n-m}$, ruled surfaces in ${\mathbb{R}}^{n+1}$ and some revolution surfaces in ${\mathbb{R}}^3$.
