Gap Phenomenon of an Abstract Willmore Type Functional of Hypersurface in Unit Sphere
نویسندگان
چکیده
For an n-dimensional hypersurface in unit sphere, we introduce an abstract Willmore type called W (n,F)-Willmore functional, which generalizes the well-known classic Willmore functional. Its critical point is called the W (n,F)-Willmore hypersurface, for which the variational equation and Simons' type integral equalities are obtained. Moreover, we construct a few examples of W (n,F)-Willmore hypersurface and give a gap phenomenon characterization by use of our integral formula.

Linear Weingarten hypersurfaces in a unit sphere
In this paper, by modifying Cheng-Yau$'$s technique to complete hypersurfaces in $S^{n+1}(1)$, we prove a rigidity theorem under the hypothesis of the mean curvature and the normalized scalar curvature being linearly related which improve the result of [H. Li, Hypersurfaces with constant scalar curvature in space forms, {em Math. Ann.} {305} (1996), 665--672].

Let x : M → Sn+p be an n-dimensional submanifold in an (n + p)dimensional unit sphere Sn+p, x : M → Sn+p is called a Willmore submanifold if it is an extremal submanifold to the following Willmore functional: ∫ M (S − nH) 2 dv, where S = ∑ α,i,j (hij) 2 is the square of the length of the second fundamental form, H is the mean curvature of M . In [13], author proved an integral inequality of Sim...

متن کاملWillmore Spheres in Quaternionic Projective Space
The Willmore energy for Frenet curves in quaternionic projective space HP is the generalization of the Willmore functional for immersions into S. Critical points of the Willmore energy are called Willmore curves in HP. Using a Bäcklund transformation on Willmore curves, we generalize Bryant’s result on Willmore spheres in 3–space: a Willmore sphere in HP has integer Willmore energy, and is give...
متن کاملExtrinsic Bounds for Eigenvalues of the Dirac Operator
We derive upper eigenvalue bounds for the Dirac operator of a closed hypersurface in a manifold with Killing spinors such as Euclidean space, spheres or hyperbolic space. The bounds involve the Willmore functional. Relations with the Willmore inequality are briefly discussed. In higher codimension we obtain bounds on the eigenvalues of the Dirac operator of the submanifold twisted with the spin...
