On Möbius form and Möbius isoparametric hypersurfaces (Q2266852)

Let \(M\) be a hypersurface of a unit sphere \(S^{n + 1}\) without umbilic points. Denote by \(h\) and \(H\) its second fundamental form and the mean curvature, respectively, and let \(I = dx.dx\) be the induced metric. Then the positive form \(g = \rho^2 dx.dx\) is called a Möbius invariant. We also know that the Möbius form, say \(F\), is one of the three basic Möbius invariants. This class of hypersurfaces is called Möbius isoparametric if \(F\) vanishes and all its Möbius principal curvatures are constant. In this paper, the authors prove that if \(M\) has constant Möbius principal curvatures, then \(F\) vanishes if and only if \(F\) is parallel with respect to the Levi-Civita connection of its Möbius metric. This result is supported by some examples.
