Abstract

top
Let Σ 2 be an immersed surface in M 2 ( c ) × with constant mean curvature. We consider the traceless Weingarten operator φ associated to the second fundamental form of the surface, and we introduce a tensor S , related to the Abresch-Rosenberg quadratic differential form. We establish equations of Simons type for both φ and S . By using these equations, we characterize some immersions for which | φ | or | S | is appropriately bounded.
