The pinching theorem for hypersurfaces of Minkowski spaces (Q663678)

Let \(M^n\) be a compact Finsler hypersurface of a Minkowski space having constant mean curvature \(H\). By using the Gauss formula of the Chern connection for Finsler geometry, the author proves that, if the norm square \(S\) of the second fundamental form of \(M\) satisfies \(S\leq \frac{n^2H^2}{n-1}\), then \(M\) is isometric to the standard Euclidean sphere. This result is well-known in Riemannian geometry.
