Abstract: In a seminal paper published in 1968, J. Simons proved that, for nleq5, the Euclidean (minimal) cone CM, built on a closed, oriented, minimal and non totally geodesic hypersurface Mn of mathbbSn+1 is unstable. In this paper, we extend Simons' analysis to {em warped} (minimal) cones built over a closed, oriented, minimal hypersurface of a leaf of suitable warped product spaces. Then, we apply our general results to the particular case of the warped product model of the Euclidean sphere, and establish the unstability of CM, whenever 2leqnleq14 and Mn is a closed, oriented, minimal and non totally geodesic hypersurface of mathbbSn+1.
