Abstract: We prove that, in Minkowski space, if a spacelike, $(n-1)$-convex hypersurface $M$ with constant $sigm{a}_{n-1}$ curvature has bounded principal curvatures, then $M$ is convex. Moreover, if $M$ is not strictly convex, after an $mathbb{R}^{n,1}$ rigid motion, $M$ splits as a product $M^{n-1}imesmathbbR.$ We also construct nontrivial examples of strictly convex, spacelike hypersurface $M$ with constant $sigm{a}_{n-1}$ curvature and bounded principal curvatures.
