In 1997, H. Li [12] proposed a conjecture: if $M^n(n{\geqslant}3)$ is a complete spacelike hypersurface in de Sitter space $S^{n+1}_1(1)$ with constant normalized scalar curvature R satisfying $\frac{n-2}{n}{\leqslant}R{\leqslant}1$, then is $M^n$ totally umbilical? Recently, F. E. C. Camargo et al. ([5]) partially proved the conjecture. In this paper, from a different viewpoint, we study closed convex spacelike hypersurface $M^n$ in locally symmetric Lorentz space $L^{n+1}_1$ and also prove that $M^n$ is totally umbilical if the square of length of second fundamental form of the closed convex spacelike hypersurface $M^n$ is constant, i.e., Theorem 1. On the other hand, we obtain that if the sectional curvature of the closed convex spacelike hypersurface $M^n$ in locally symmetric Lorentz space $L^{n+1}_1$ satisfies $K(M^n)$ > 0, then $M^n$ is totally umbilical, i.e., Theorem 2.

In this article, we apply the weak maximum principle in order to obtain a suitable characterization of the complete linearWeingarten hypersurfaces immersed in locally symmetric Riemannian manifold $N^{n+1}$. Under the assumption that the mean curvature attains its maximum and supposing an appropriated restriction on the norm of the traceless part of the second fundamental form, we prove that such a hypersurface must be either totally umbilical or hypersurface is an isoparametric hypersurface with two distinct principal curvatures one of which is simple.

In this paper, we study the geometry of lightlike hypersurfaces of a semi-Riemannian manifold. We prove a classification theorem for lightlike hypersurfaces M with totally umbilical screen distributions of a semi-Riemannian space form.

The object of this paper is to study non-invariant hypersurface of a (𝜖, 𝛿)-trans Sasakian manifolds equipped with (f, g, u, v, λ)-structure. Some properties obeyed by this structure are obtained. The necessary and sufficient conditions also have been obtained for totally umbilical non-invariant hypersurface with (f, g, u, v, λ)-structure of a (𝜖, 𝛿)-trans Sasakian manifolds to be totally geodesic. The second fundamental form of a non-invariant hypersurface of a (𝜖, 𝛿)-trans Sasakian manifolds with (f, g, u, v, λ)-structure has been traced under the condition when f is parallel.

In this paper, we study the geometry of lightlike real hyper-surfaces of an indefinite Kaehler manifold. The main result is a characterization theorem for lightlike real hypersurfaces M of an indefinite complex space form $\bar{M}(c)$ such that the screen distribution is totally umbilic.

Let M be a linear Weingarten spacelike hypersurface in a locally symmetric Lorentz space with R = aH + b, where R and H are the normalized scalar curvature and the mean curvature, respectively. In this paper, we give some conditions for the complete hypersurface M to be totally umbilical.

In this paper, we study the geometry lightlike hypersurfaces (M, $g$, S(TM)) of a semi-Riemannian manifold ($\tilde{M}$, $\tilde{g}$) of quasi-constant curvature subject to the conditions: (1) The curvature vector field of $\tilde{M}$ is tangent to M, and (2) the screen distribution S(TM) is either totally geodesic in M or totally umbilical in $\tilde{M}$.

The closed spacelike hypersurfaces with higher order mean curvature is discussed in a de Sitter space. The hypersurface is proved stable if and only if it is totally umbilical.

We provide a study of lightlike hypersurfaces of a generalized Robertson-Walker (GRW) space-time. In particular, we investigate lightlike hypersurfaces with curvature invariance, parallel second fundamental forms, totally umbilical second fundamental forms, null sectional curvatures and null Ricci curvatures, respectively.

We study a lightlike hypersurface M of an indefinite nearly trans-Sasakian manifold ${\bar{M}}$ with an (ℓ, m)-type connection such that the structure vector field ζ of ${\bar{M}}$ is tangent to M. In particular, we focus on such lightlike hypersurfaces M for which the structure tensor field F is either recurrent or Lie recurrent, or such that M itself is totally umbilical or screen totally umbilical.
