Constant mean curvature spacelike hypersurfaces in standard static spaces: rigidity and parabolicity (Q2212211): Difference between revisions

In this paper, the authors investigate the geometry of complete constant mean curvature space-like hypersurfaces immersed in a standard static space, that is, a Lorentzian manifold endowed with a globally defined time-like Killing vector field. In this setting, supposing that the ambient space is a warped product of the type \(M^n\times_{\rho}\mathbb R_1\) whose Riemannian base \(M^n\) has nonnegative sectional curvature and the warping function \(\rho\in C^{\infty}(M^n)\) is convex on \(M^n\), they use the generalized maximum principle of Omori-Yau in order to establish rigidity results concerning these space-like hypersurfaces. They also study the parabolicity of maximal space-like surfaces in \(M^2\times_{\rho}\mathbb R_1\) and obtain uniqueness results for entire Killing graphs constructed over \(M^n\).
