Review text

An isometric action of a connected closed Lie subgroup \(G\) of the isometry group of a compact Riemannian manifold \(M\) is called of cohomogeneity one if its principal orbits have codimension one. In the present paper, the author considers cohomogeneity one actions on compact hypersurfaces of Euclidean space. He proves that, if the principal orbits have positive curvature, \(M\) is homeomorphic either to an \(n\)-sphere or to a product of a circle and a \((n-1)\)-sphere. In addition, if the dimension of \(M\) is three, he obtains a classification which is independent of the curvature of the principal orbits. Namely, he shows that, if \(M\) is orientable, it is homeomorphic to \(S^3\), \(S^1\times S^2\) or \(S^1\times S^1\times S^1\).
