Review text

Let \(M\) be a connected closed orientable hypersurface of a simply connected hyperbolic space \(N\) of sectional curvature \(-1\). Suppose one of the following conditions is satisfied: (i) At any point of \(M\), all principal curvatures of \(M\) are different from \(1\). (ii) At any point of \(M\), all principal curvatures of \(M\) are different from \(-1\). Then the authors prove that \(M\) is diffeomeorphic to a Euclidean sphere. The other rigidity theorems obtained refer to closed hypersurfaces of a sphere and of a Euclidean space.
