Complete spacelike hypersurfaces with positive r-th mean curvature in a semi-Riemannian warped product

چکیده
In this paper, by supposing a natural comparison inequality on the positive r-th mean curvatures of the hypersurface, we obtain some new Bernstein-type theorems for complete spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in a semi-Riemannian warped product of constant sectional curvature. Generalizing the above results, under a restriction on the sectional curvature or the Ricci curvature tensor of the fiber of a warped product, we also prove some new rigidity theorems in semi-Riemannian warped products. Our main results extend some recent Bernstein-type theorems proved in [12, 13, 14].

On Complete Spacelike Hypersurfaces in a Semi-Riemannian Warped Product
By applying Omori-Yau maximal principal theory and supposing an appropriate restriction on the norm of gradient of height function, we obtain some new Bernstein-type theorems for complete spacelike hypersurfaces with nonpositive constant mean curvature immersed in a semi-Riemannian warped product. Furthermore, some applications of our main theorems for entire vertical graphs in Robertson-Walker...

We study connected orientable spacelike hypersurfaces $x:M^{n}rightarrowM_q^{n+1}(c)$, isometrically immersed into the Riemannian or Lorentzian space form of curvature $c=-1,0,1$, and index $q=0,1$, satisfying the condition $~L_kx=Ax+b$,~ where $L_k$ is the $textit{linearized operator}$ of the $(k+1)$-th mean curvature $H_{k+1}$ of the hypersurface for a fixed integer $0leq k
متن کاملSpacelike 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 کاملA Note on Bernstein-type Results of Spacelike Hypersurfaces in Semi-riemannian Warped Products
In this paper, making use of the well known generalized maximum principal according to Omori-Yau [20, 24] and considering the Laplacian of the integral of the warping function [4, 22], we prove some new Bernstein-type theorems concerning complete spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in semi-Riemannian warped products. Our main theorems extend the corresponding results proved by de Lima [13] and Aqu...
متن کاملA Strong Maximum Principle for Weak Solutions of Quasi-linear Elliptic Equations with Applications to Lorentzian and Riemannian Geometry
The strong maximum principle is proved to hold for weak (in the sense of support functions) suband super-solutions to a class of quasi-linear elliptic equations that includes the mean curvature equation for C spacelike hypersurfaces in a Lorentzian manifold. As one application a Lorentzian warped product splitting theorem is given.
