On hypersurfaces in a locally affine Riemannian Banach manifold (Q1607959)

An essential hypersurface of order two is one whose elements \(X\) comply with an equation \(g(X,X)=er^2\) (\(e\) being equal to \(-1,0\), or \(+1\), \(r\) being an arbitrary nonzero real number) with respect to the first differential form \(g\). The authors prove the following theorem: An essential hypersurface of order two in an infinite-dimensional locally Riemannian Banach manifold is a Riemannian manifold of constant nonzero curvature.
