In this paper we study the -stability of closed hypersurfaces with constant -th mean curvature in Riemannian manifolds of constant sectional curvature. In this setting, we obtain a characterization of the -stable ones through of the analysis of the first eigenvalue of an operator naturally attached to the -th mean curvature.
In this paper, we deal with -dimensional complete linear Weingarten spacelike submanifolds immersed with parallel normalized mean curvature vector field and flat normal bundle in a locally symmetric semi-Riemannian space of index , which obeys some curvature constraints (such an ambient space can be regarded as an extension of a semi-Riemannian space form). Under appropriate hypothesis, we are able to prove that such a spacelike submanifold is either totally umbilical or isometric to an isoparametric...
