We construct some hyperbolic hyperelliptic space forms whose fundamental groups are generated by only two or three isometries. Each occurring group is obtained from a supergroup, which is an extended Coxeter group generated by plane re ections and half-turns. Then we describe covering properties and determine the isometry groups of the constructed manifolds. Furthermore, we give an explicit construction of space form of the second smallest volume nonorientable hyperbolic 3-manifold with one cusp.

Let M be a hypersurface of dimension n(.geq.2) in an (n+1)-dimensional real space form over bar M(c) with constant curvature c and H the second fundamental tensor of M. M is said to be birecurrent if here exists a covariant tensor field .alpha. of order 2 such that .del.$^{2}$H=H .alpha., where .del. is the connection of M. Also, M is said to be recurrent if there exists a 1-form .betha. such that .del.H=H .betha.. Matsuyama [2] recently proved that a recurrent hypersurface M in a real space form is locally symmetric and a complete irreducible birecurrent hypersurface M in a real space form is recurrent. The main purpose of this paper is to characterize the birecurrent or recurrent hypersurface M of a Riemannian manifold with constant curvature c and to prove that M is classified as a cylinder, $M^{n}$ (c) or ( $c_{1}$)* $M^{n-r}$ ( $c_{2}$) where 1/ $c_{1}$+1/ $c_{2}$=1/c.

Let x : $^{Mn-1}{\rightarrow}{\mathbb{R}}^n$ ($n{\geq}4$) be an umbilical free hyper-surface with non-zero principal curvatures. Then x is associated with a Laguerre metric g, a Laguerre tensor L, a Laguerre form C, and a Laguerre second fundamental form B, which are invariants of x under Laguerre transformation group. We denote the Laguerre scalar curvature by R and the trace-free Laguerre tensor by ${\tilde{L}}:=L-{\frac{1}{n-1}}tr(L)g$. In this paper, we prove a local classification result under the assumption of parallel Laguerre form and an inequality of the type $${\parallel}{\tilde{L}}{\parallel}{\leq}cR$$ where $c={\frac{1}{(n-3){\sqrt{(n-2)(n-1)}}}$ is appropriate real constant, depending on the dimension.

Let $G\;=\;O(k){\times}O(k){\times}O(q)$ and let $M^n$ be a closed G-invariant minimal hypersurface with constant scalar curvature in $S^{n+1}$. Then we obtain a theorem: If $M^n$ has 2 distinct principal curvatures at some point p, then the square norm of the second fundamental form of $M^n$, S = n.

In this paper, we define a totally umbilic hypersurface of first order and show that a totally umbilic hypersurface of first order in an Einstein manifold has a parallel second fundamental form. Furthermore we prove that a complete, simply connected and totally umbilic hypersurface of first order in a space of constant curvature is a Riemannian product of Einstein manifolds. Finally we show a proper example which is a totally umbilic hypersurface of first order but not a totally umbilic hypersurface.

We study an (n+1)($(n{\geq}3)$-dimensional contact CR-submanifold of (n-1) contact CR-dimension in a (2m+1)-unit sphere $S^{2m+1}$, and to determine such sub manifolds under conditions concerning the second fundamental form and the induced almost contact structure.

Let $M^n$ be a complete immersed super stable minimal submanifold in $\mathbb{R}^{n+p}$ with fiat normal bundle. We prove that if M has finite total $L^2$ norm of its second fundamental form, then M is an affine n-plane. We also prove that any complete immersed super stable minimal submanifold with flat normal bundle has only one end.

In this paper we give an upper bound of the first eigenvalue of the Laplace operator on a complete stable minimal hypersurface M in the hyperbolic space which has finite $L^2$-norm of the second fundamental form on M. We provide some sufficient conditions for minimal hypersurface of the hyperbolic space to be stable. We also describe stability of catenoids and helicoids in the hyperbolic space. In particular, it is shown that there exists a family of stable higher-dimensional catenoids in the hyperbolic space.

In this article, we apply the weak maximum principle in order to obtain a suitable characterization of the complete linearWeingarten hypersurfaces immersed in locally symmetric Riemannian manifold $N^{n+1}$. Under the assumption that the mean curvature attains its maximum and supposing an appropriated restriction on the norm of the traceless part of the second fundamental form, we prove that such a hypersurface must be either totally umbilical or hypersurface is an isoparametric hypersurface with two distinct principal curvatures one of which is simple.

In this paper, we prove the optimal inequalities for the generalized normalized ${\delta}$-Casorati curvature and the normalized scalar curvature for different submanifolds in generalized (${\kappa},{\mu}$)-space forms. The proof is based on an optimization procedure involving a quadratic polynomial in the components of the second fundamental form. We also characterize the submanifolds on which equalities hold.
