We find the necessary and sufficient condition for the proper biharmonic CMC hypersurfaces in the special warped product space. Furthermore, we obtain that there exists no proper biharmonic CMC compact hypersurface there.
It is extended a result due to B. Guan and J. Spruck on the asymptotic Plateau's problem for CMC radial graphs in hyperbolic space to horizontal CMC graphs.
In this note we improve a gap result concerning the range of the mean curvature of complete $CMC$ proper-biharmonic hypersurfaces in unit Euclidean spheres.
It is known that the totally umbilical hypersurfaces in the (n+1)-dimensional spheres are characterized as the only hypersurfaces with weak stability index 0. That is, a compact hypersurface with constant mean curvature, cmc, in S^{n+1}, different from an Euclidean sphere, must have stability index greater than or equal to 1. In this paper we prove that the weak stability index of any non-totally umbilical compact hypersurface M\subset S^{n+1} with cmc cannot take the values 1,2,3... n.
We prove that there are not algebraic hypersurfaces of degree 3 in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with non zero constant mean curvature.

We develop a bubble-compactness theory for embedded CMC hypersurfaces with bounded index and area inside closed Riemannian manifolds in low dimensions. In particular we show that convergence always occurs with multiplicity one, which implies that the minimal blow-ups (bubbles) are all catenoids. We also provide bounds on the area of separating CMC surfaces of bounded (Morse) index and use this, together with the previous results, to bound their genus.
A triharmonic map is a critical point of the tri-energy in the space of smooth maps between two Riemannian manifolds. In this paper, we prove that if $M^n (n\ge 4)$ is a CMC proper triharmonic hypersurface in a space form $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}(c)$ with four distinct principal curvatures and the multiplicity of the zero principal curvature is at most one, then $M$ has constant scalar curvature. In particular, we obtain any CMC proper triharmonic hypersurface in $\mathbb{R}^5(c)$ is minimal when $c\le 0$, which supports the generalized Chen's conjecture. We also give some characterizations of CMC pr…
We study the constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space whose asymptotic boundaries are closed codimension-1 submanifolds in sphere at infinity. We consider CMC hypersurfaces as generalizations of minimal hypersurfaces. We naturally generalize some notions of minimal hypersurfaces like being area minimizing, convex hull property, exchange roundoff trick to the CMC hypersurface context. We also give a generic uniqueness result for CMC hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space.
In this paper, we deduce some rigidity results in warped product spaces under normal variations of CMC hypersurfaces. In particular, we prove the existence of one-parameter families locally rigid on the spatial fiber of Anti-de Sitter Schwarzschild spacetime and one-parameter families with bifurcation points on the spatial fiber of de Sitter Schwarzschild spacetime.
We study deformations of free boundary constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurfaces whose Jacobi operator is degenerate due to symmetries of the ambient space. The value of the mean curvature and the ambient metric are allowed to vary simultaneously, provided that the infinitesimal ambient symmetries change smoothly. We discuss applications to free boundary CMC disks and Delaunay annuli in the unit ball of a space form.

A $k$-harmonic map is a critical point of the $k$-energy in the space of smooth maps between two Riemannian manifolds. In this paper, we prove that if $M^{n} (n\ge 3)$ is a CMC proper triharmonic hypersurface with at most three distinct principal curvatures in a space form $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}(c)$, then $M$ has constant scalar curvature. This supports the generalized Chen's conjecture when $c\le 0$. When $c=1$, we give an optimal upper bound of the mean curvature $H$ for a non-totally umbilical proper CMC $k$-harmonic hypersurface with constant scalar curvature in a sphere. As an application, we …

In this paper we study triharmonic hypersurfaces immersed in a space form $N^{n+1}(c)$. We prove that any proper CMC triharmonic hypersurface in the sphere $\mathbb S^{n+1}$ has constant scalar curvature; any CMC triharmonic hypersurface in the hyperbolic space $\mathbb H^{n+1}$ is minimal. Moreover, we show that any CMC triharmonic hypersurface in the Euclidean space $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ is minimal provided that the multiplicity of the principal curvature zero is at most one. In particular, we are able to prove that every CMC triharmonic hypersurface in the Euclidean space $\mathbb R^{6}$ is min…

We show that ${\Hm}(N\times \mathbb{R})=\inf_{M\in {\mathscr F}(N\times \mathbb{R})}\{| H_{M}| \}\geq (n-1)κ/n $.

Let $\mathbb{R}_{+}^{n+1}$ \ be the half-space model of the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^{n+1}.$ It is proved that if $Γ\subset\left\{ x_{n+1}=0\right\} \subset\partial_{\infty}\mathbb{H}^{n+1}$ is a bounded $C^{0}$ Euclidean graph over $\left\{ x_{1}=0,\text{ }x_{n+1}=0\right\} $ then, given $\left\vert H\right\vert <1,$ there is a complete, properly embedded, CMC $H$ hypersurface $Σ$ of $\mathbb{H}^{n+1}$ such that $\partial_{\infty }S=Γ\cup\left\{ x_{n+1}=+\infty\right\} .$ This result can be seen as a limit case of the existence theorem proved by B. Guan and J. Spruck in \cite{GS} on CMC $…

Let $M$ be a Hadamard manifold with curvature bounded above by a negative constant $-α$, satisfying the "strict convexity condition", and assume that $M$ admits a "helicoidal" one-parameter subgroup $G$ of isometries of $M$. Then, given a compact topological $G-$shaped hypersurface $Γ$ in the asymptotic boundary of $M,$ and $|H|<\sqrtα$, we prove the existence of a complete properly embedded hypersurface whose mean curvature is equal to $H$ and whose asymptotic boundary is $Γ$. We are able, this way, to extend a previous theorem of B.Guan and J.Spruck on the hyperbolic space to any rank 1 symm…
We define a Gauss map $γ:M\rightarrow\mathbb{S}^{6}$ of an oriented hypersurface $M$ of the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{7}$ and prove that $γ$ is harmonic if and only if $M$ has CMC. Results on the geometry and topology of CMC hypersurfaces of $\mathbb{S}^{7}$, under hypothesis on the image of $γ$, are then obtained. By a Hopf symmetrization process we define a Gauss map for hypersurfaces of $\mathbb{CP}^{3}$ and obtain similar results for CMC hypersurfaces of this space.

Let $Σ^2 \subset M^3$ be a minimal surface of index 0 or 1. Assume that a neighborhood of $Σ$ can be foliated by constant mean curvature (cmc) hypersurfaces. We use min-max theory and the catenoid estimate to construct $\varepsilon$-cmc doublings of $Σ$ for small $\varepsilon > 0$. Such cmc doublings were previously constructed for minimal hypersurfaces $Σ^n \subset M^{n+1}$ with $n+1\ge 4$ by Pacard and Sun using gluing methods.
Weakly stable constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurfaces are stable critical points of the area functional with respect to volume preserving deformations. We establish a pointwise curvature estimate (in the non-singular dimensions) and a sheeting theorem (in all dimensions) for weakly stable CMC hypersurfaces, giving an effective version of the compactness theorem for weakly stable CMC hypersurfaces established in the recent work of the first and third-named authors. Our results generalize the curvature estimate and the sheeting theorem proven respectively by Schoen--Simon--Yau and Schoen--Si…

In this paper we will prove that for every integer n>1, there exists a real number H_0<-1 such that every H\in (-\infty,H_0) can be realized as the mean curvature of a embedding of H^{n-1}\times S^1 in the (n+1)-dimensional spaces H^{n+1}. For $n=2$ we explicitly compute the value H_0. For a general value n, we provide function ξ_n defined on (-\infty,-1), which is easy to compute numerically, such that, if ξ_n(H)>-2π, then, H can be realized as the mean curvature of a embedding of H^{n-1}\times S^1 in the (n+1)-dimensional spaces H^{n+1}.
In this note, we observe that if $B$ is a ball in a Euclidean space with dimension $n$, $n\geq3$, then a stable CMC hypersurface $Σ$ with free boundary in $B$ satisfies \[ nA\leq L\leq nA\left( \frac{1+\sqrt{1+4(n+1)H^2}}{2} \right)\,, \] where $L$, $A$ and $H$ denote the length of $\partial Σ$, the area of $Σ$ and the mean curvature of $Σ$, respectively. Consequently, if the boundary $\partial Σ$ is embedded then $Σ$ must be totally geodesic or starshaped with respect to the center of the ball. This result is an improvement of a theorem proved by A. Ros and E. Vergasta \cite{R-V} . In particu…

This paper explains the construction of all hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature -- cmc -- and exactly two principal curvatures on any space form endowed with a semi-riemannian metric. Here we will consider riemannian hypersurfaces as well as hypersurfaces with semi-riemannian metrics induced by the ambient space. We show explicit immersions for all these hypersurfaces. We will see that for any given ambient space, the family of cmc hypersurfaces with two principal curvatures depends on two parameters, $H$ and $C$. We describe the range for all possible $(H,C)$ associated with complete c…
We solve spacelike spherically symmetric constant mean curvature (SS-CMC) hypersurfaces in Schwarzschild spacetimes and analyze their asymptotic behavior near the coordinate singularity r = 2M. Furthermore, we join SS-CMC hypersurfaces in the Kruskal extension to obtain complete ones and discuss the smooth properties.
In this paper, we develop a min-max theory for the construction of constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurfaces of prescribed mean curvature in an arbitrary closed manifold. As a corollary, we prove the existence of a nontrivial, smooth, closed, almost embedded, CMC hypersurface of any given mean curvature $c$. Moreover, if $c$ is nonzero then our min-max solution always has multiplicity one.

We prove that on a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $3$ or higher, with positive Ricci curvature, the Allen--Cahn min-max scheme (implemented by the first author and N. Wickramasekera in 2020), with prescribing function taken to be a non-zero constant $λ$, produces an embedded hypersurface of constant mean curvature $λ$ ($λ$-CMC). More precisely, we prove that the interface arising from said min-max contains no even-multiplicity minimal hypersurface and no quasi-embedded points (both of these occurrences are in principle possible in the conclusions of the aforementioned work by the fir…
In this paper, firstly, we show the existence of a compact embedded constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurface $Σ_1$ in $\mathbb{S}^{2n}$ of the type $S^{n-1} \times S^{n-1} \times S^{1}$. Moreover, the hypersurface $Σ_1$ exhibits $O(n)\times O(n)$ symmetry. Secondly, we show that there exists a compact embedded CMC-hypersurface $Σ_2 \subset \mathbb{S}^{3n-1}$ of the type $S^{n-1} \times S^{n-1} \times S^{n-1} \times S^{1}$. These results generalize the results of Carlotto and Schulz.

In this article we provide a general construction when $n\ge3$ for immersed in Euclidean $(n+1)$-space, complete, smooth, constant mean curvature hypersurfaces of finite topological type (in short CMC $n$-hypersurfaces). More precisely our construction converts certain graphs in Euclidean $(n+1)$-space to CMC $n$-hypersurfaces with asymptotically Delaunay ends in two steps: First appropriate small perturbations of the given graph have their vertices replaced by round spherical regions and their edges and rays by Delaunay pieces so that a family of initial smooth hypersurfaces is constructed. O…
In this paper we consider smooth oriented hypersurfaces in 2-step nilpotent Lie groups with a left invariant metric and derive an expression for the Laplacian of the Gauss map for such hypersurfaces in the general case and in some particular cases. In the case of CMC-hypersurface in the (2m+1)-dimensional Heisenberg group we also derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the Gauss map to be harmonic and prove that for m=1 all CMC-surfaces with the harmonic Gauss map are "cylinders".
In this paper, we study the geometry of a connected oriented cmc Riemannian hypersurface $M$ of a semi-Riemannian group $G$ of Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ and index 0 or 1. If $G$ is Riemannian and $M$ is compact and transversal to an element of $\mathfrak g$, we show that it is a lateral class of a closed embedded Lie subgroup of $G$; we also do this if $G$ is Lorentzian, provided $M$ has sufficiently large mean curvature. If $G$ is Riemannian semisimple and $M$ is compact, we prove that $M$ has degenerate Gauss map and minimal relative nullity at least 1. We also extend the above results to th…
CMC surfaces in spheres are investigated under the extra condition of biharmonicity. From the work of Miyata, especially in the flat case, we give a complete description of such immersions and show that for any $h\in (0,1)$ there exist CMC proper-biharmonic planes and cylinders in $\sn^5$ with $|H|=h$, while a necessary and sufficient condition on $h$ is found for the existence of CMC proper-biharmonic tori in $\sn^5$.

CMC-1 trinoids (i.e. constant mean curvature one immersed surface with three regular embedded ends) in hyperbolic 3-space H^3 are irreducible generically, and the irreducible ones have been classified. However, the reducible case has not yet been fully treated, so in this paper we give an explicit description of CMC-1 trinoids in H^3 that includes the reducible case.
In this paper we show explicit examples of several families of immersions with constant mean curvature and non constant principal curvatures, in semi-riemannian manifolds with constant sectional curvature. In particular, we prove that every h in [-1,-2 sqrt{n-1}/n) can be realized as the constant curvature of a complete immersion of S_1^{n-1} x R in the (n+1)-dimensional de Sitter space S_1^{n+1}. We provide 3 types of immersions with cmc in the Minkowski space, 5 types of immersion with cmc in the de Sitter space and 5 types of immersion with cmc in the anti de Sitter space. At the end of the…
The techniques developed by Butscher in arXiv:math/0703469 for constructing constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurfaces in the (n+1)-sphere by gluing together spherical building blocks are generalized to handle less symmetric initial configurations. The outcome is that the approximately CMC hypersurface obtained by gluing the initial configuration together can be perturbed into an exactly CMC hypersurface only when certain global geometric conditions are met. These `balancing conditions' are analogous to those that must be satisfied in the `classical' context of gluing constructions of CMC hyp…
This paper gives a new proof that maximal, globally hyperbolic, flat spacetimes of dimension $n\geq 3$ with compact Cauchy hypersurfaces are globally foliated by Cauchy hypersurfaces of constant mean curvature, and that such spacetimes admit a globally defined constant mean curvature time function precisely when they are causally incomplete. The proof, which is based on using the level sets of the cosmological time function as barriers, is conceptually simple and will provide the basis for future work on constant mean curvature time functions in general constant curvature spacetimes, as well f…
We propose a notion of stability for capillary hypersurfaces with constant higher order mean curvature and we generalize some results of the classical stability theory for CMC capillary hypersurfaces.
This paper continues the investigation of constant mean curvature (CMC) time functions in maximal globally hyperbolic spatially compact spacetimes of constant sectional curvature, which was started in math.DG/0604486. In that paper, the case of flat spacetimes was considered, and in the present paper, the remaining cases of negative curvature (i.e. anti-de Sitter) spacetimes and postitive curvature (i.e. de Sitter) spacetimes is dealt with. As in the flat case, the existence of CMC time functions is obtained by using the level sets of the cosmological time function as barriers. A major part of…
Given a vector field $X$ in a Riemannian manifold, a hypersurface is said to have a canonical principal direction relative to $X$ if the projection of $X$ onto the tangent space of the hypersurface gives a principal direction. We give different ways for building these hypersurfaces, as well as a number of useful characterizations. In particular, we relate them with transnormal functions and eikonal equations. With the further condition of having constant mean curvature (CMC) we obtain a characterization of the canonical principal direction surfaces in Euclidean space as Delaunay surfaces. We a…
A complete surface of constant mean curvature 1 (CMC-1) in hyperbolic 3-space with constant curvature -1 has two natural notions of "total curvature"-- one is the total absolute curvature which is the integral over the surface of the absolute value of the Gaussian curvature, and the other is the dual total absolute curvature which is the total absolute curvature of the dual CMC-1 surface. In this paper, we completely classify CMC-1 surfaces with dual total absolute curvature at most 4π. Moreover, we give new examples and partially classify CMC-1 surfaces with dual total absolute curvature at m…
We use bifurcation theory to show the existence of infinite sequences isometric embeddings of tori with constant mean curvature (CMC) in Euclidean spheres that are not isometrically congruent to the CMC Clifford tori, and accumulating at some CMC Clifford torus.

We prove that every closed, smooth $n$-manifold $X$ admits a Riemannian metric together with a smooth, transversely oriented CMC foliation if and only if its Euler characteristic is zero, where by CMC foliation we mean a codimension-one, transversely oriented foliation with leaves of constant mean curvature and where the value of the constant mean curvature can vary from leaf to leaf. Furthermore, we prove that this CMC foliation of $X$ can be chosen so that the constant values of the mean curvatures of its leaves change sign. We also prove a general structure theorem for any such non-minimal …
