Three-dimensional curvature homogeneous hypersurfaces

Giovanni Calvaruso, Rosa Anna Marinosci, Domenico Perrone (2000)

Archivum Mathematicum

This paper is motivated by the open problem whether a three-dimensional curvature homogeneous hypersurface of a real space form is locally homogeneous or not. We give some partial positive answers.

Timelike B 2 -slant helices in Minkowski space E 1 4

Ahmad T. Ali, Rafael López (2010)

Archivum Mathematicum

We consider a unit speed timelike curve α in Minkowski 4-space 𝐄 1 4 and denote the Frenet frame of α by { 𝐓 , 𝐍 , 𝐁 1 , 𝐁 2 } . We say that α is a generalized helix if one of the unit vector fields of the Frenet frame has constant scalar product with a fixed direction U of 𝐄 1 4 . In this work we study those helices where the function 𝐁 2 , U is constant and we give different characterizations of such curves.

Top-Dimensional Group of the Basic Intersection Cohomology for Singular Riemannian Foliations

José Ignacio Royo Prieto, Martintxo Saralegi-Aranguren, Robert Wolak (2005)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

It is known that, for a regular riemannian foliation on a compact manifold, the properties of its basic cohomology (non-vanishing of the top-dimensional group and Poincaré duality) and the tautness of the foliation are closely related. If we consider singular riemannian foliations, there is little or no relation between these properties. We present an example of a singular isometric flow for which the top-dimensional basic cohomology group is non-trivial, but the basic cohomology does not satisfy...

Topological and metric rigidity teorems for hypersurfaces in a hyperbolic space

Qiaoling Wang, Chang Yu Xia (2007)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

In this paper we study the topological and metric rigidity of hypersurfaces in n + 1 , the ( n + 1 ) -dimensional hyperbolic space of sectional curvature - 1 . We find conditions to ensure a complete connected oriented hypersurface in n + 1 to be diffeomorphic to a Euclidean sphere. We also give sufficient conditions for a complete connected oriented closed hypersurface with constant norm of the second fundamental form to be totally umbilic.

Topological tools for the prescribed scalar curvature problem on S n

Dina Abuzaid, Randa Ben Mahmoud, Hichem Chtioui, Afef Rigane (2014)

Open Mathematics

In this paper, we consider the problem of the existence of conformal metrics with prescribed scalar curvature on the standard sphere S n, n ≥ 3. We give new existence and multiplicity results based on a new Euler-Hopf formula type. Our argument also has the advantage of extending well known results due to Y. Li [16].
