设$M^n$为欧氏空间中的$C^2$闭凸超曲面,$σ_m$为其第$m$平均曲率。我们证明:若对任意满足$p-q$平行于给定方向$e$的点$p,q$,都有$σ_m(p)\leqσ_m(q)$,则$M$关于垂直于$e$的超平面对称。对凸超曲面而言,该结论解决了Li的一个猜想,将Li-Yan-Yao的平均曲率定理推广到所有$σ_m$,并通过去除非退化假设强化了Li-Nirenberg的部分早期结果。证明基于混合体积理论,具体是Steiner对称化下quermassintegral(平均曲率积分)的刚性性质。
英文摘要
Let $M^n$ be a $C^2$ closed convex hypersurface in Euclidean space, and $σ_m$ be its $m$th mean curvature. We show that $M$ is symmetric with respect to a hyperplane orthogonal to a given direction $e$, if $σ_m(p)\leqσ_m(q)$ whenever $p-q$ is parallel to $e$. For convex hypersurfaces, this settles a conjecture of Li, extends the mean-curvature theorem of Li-Yan-Yao to all $σ_m$, and strengthens some earlier results of Li-Nirenberg by removing nondegeneracy assumptions. The proof is based on the theory of mixed volumes, specifically the rigidity of quermassintegrals under Steiner symmetrization.
