Rigidity of spacelike LW-submanifolds in the de Sitter space (Q6161924)

The purpose of this paper is to study the rigidity of \(n\)-dimensional space-like LW-submanifolds immersed with parallel normalized mean curvature vector in the \((n + p)\)-dimensional de Sitter space \(\mathbb{S}_p^{n+p}\). \par The authors assume that the norm of the total umbilicity tensor converges to zero at infinity and show that such a complete noncompact space-like LW-submanifold of \(\mathbb{S}_p^{n+p}\) is either isometric to the Euclidian space \(\mathbb{R}^n\) or to the hyperbolic space \(\mathbb{H}^n\). \par Next, under the assumption that such a complete space-like LW-submanifold of \(\mathbb{S}_p^{n+p}\) has polynomial volume growth, it is proven that it must be either isometric to the Euclidean space \(\mathbb{R}^n\) or to a Euclidean sphere \(\mathbb{S}^n(r)\) with radius \(r > 0\).
