Compact spacelike surfaces in the 3-dimensional de Sitter space with non-degenerate second fundamental form

چکیده
In this paper, we establish several sufficient conditions for a compact spacelike surface with non-degenerate second fundamental form in the 3-dimensional de Sitter space to be spherical. With this aim, we develop a formula for these surfaces which involves the mean and Gaussian curvatures of the first fundamental form and the Gaussian curvature of the second fundamental form. By means of that formula, we prove, for instance, that the totally umbilical round spheres are the only compact spacelike surfaces such that the second fundamental form is nondegenerate and has constant Gaussian curvature. 2003 Elsevier Science B.V.

Spacelike hypersurfaces with constant $S$ or $K$ in de Sitter space or anti-de Sitter space
Let $M^n$ be an $n(ngeq 3)$-dimensional complete connected and oriented spacelike hypersurface in a de Sitter space or an anti-de Sitter space, $S$ and $K$ be the squared norm of the second fundamental form and Gauss-Kronecker curvature of $M^n$. If $S$ or $K$ is constant, nonzero and $M^n$ has two distinct principal curvatures one of which is simple, we obtain some charact...
متن کاملSpacelike Mean Curvature One Surfaces in De Sitter 3-space
The first author studied spacelike constant mean curvature one (CMC-1) surfaces in de Sitter 3-space S 1 when the surfaces have no singularities except within some compact subset and are of finite total curvature on the complement of this compact subset. However, there are many CMC-1 surfaces whose singular sets are not compact. In fact, such examples have already appeared in the construction o...
متن کاملTranslation Surfaces of the Third Fundamental Form in Lorentz-Minkowski Space
In this paper we study translation surfaces with the non-degenerate third fundamental form in Lorentz- Minkowski space $mathbb{L}^{3}$. As a result, we classify translation surfaces satisfying an equation in terms of the position vector field and the Laplace operator with respect to the third fundamental form $III$ on the surface.

Gravitational waves are the last unconfirmed prediction of the general relativity. These waves are tiny fluctuations in world frame that dessipate energy throghout space. The gravitatinal waves spectra of fluctuations can be originated from the non-linear effects during different cosmic evolution periods, especially from initially non-linear and excited vacuum state in the very early universe. ...
