A generalization of a theorem of Delaunay to rotational W-hypersurfaces of _-type in H^n+1 and S^n+1
In 1841 Delaunay proved that if one rolls a conic section on a line in a plane and then rotates about that line the trace of a focus, one obtains a constant mean curvature surface of revolution in \(R^ 3\). Conversely, all such surfaces, except spheres, are constructed in this way. In 1981, \textit{W.-Y. Hsiang} and \textit{W.-C. Yu} [J. Differ. Geom. 16, 161-177 (1981; Zbl 0504.53044)] generalized Delaunay's theorem to constant mean curvature rotation hypersurfaces in \(R^{n+1}\). In 1982, \textit{W.-Y. Hsiang} [Duke Math. J. 49, 485-496 (1982; Zbl 0496.53006)] further generalized Delaunay's theorem to rotational W-hypersurfaces of \(\sigma_{\ell}\)-type in \(R^{n+1}\). These are hypersurfaces such that the \(\ell th\)-basic symmetric polynomial of the principle curvatures \((k_ i(x))\), namely, \[ \sigma_{\ell}(k_1,\ldots,k_ n) = \sum_{i_1<\ldots<i_{\ell}} k_{i_1}\ldots k_{i_{\ell}}, \quad 1\leq\ell\leq n \] is constant. Here we generalize Delaunay's theorem to rotational W-hypersurfaces of \(\sigma_{\ell}\)-type in hyperbolic \((n+1)\)-space \(H^{n+1}\) and spherical \((n+1)\)-space \(S^{n+1}\). Specifically we generalize the rolling construction of Delaunay. Various geometrical properties of these surfaces and their generating curves have been studied by Hsiang.
