The author considers a closed hypersurface M in a Riemannian manifold \((\tilde M,\tilde g)\) and gives sufficient conditions (constant mean curvature etc.) for M to be totally umbilical. The proofs based on integral formulas of Minkowski type. [Reviewer's remark: Theorem 4.1 is well known in a more general form; cf. \textit{M. Obata}, J. Math. Soc. Japan 14, 333-340 (1962; Zbl 0115.393)].
