On Hypersurfaces of Space Forms That Are Gradient Yamabe Solitons
Abstract
This paper studies nontrivial Yamabe gradient solitons occurring as complete immersed hypersurfaces with constant scalar curvature in space forms (M̅n(C), g̅). For solitons with non-vanishing gradients, we establish a structural characterization of the soliton by analyzing a regular level set Σ of the soliton function. In particular, imposing a suitable condition on the traceless part of the second fundamental form, ΦΣM̅ of Σ as a submanifold of the space form, we prove that the soliton either decomposes as a Riemannian product of ℝ and a totally umbilical submanifold of the space form, or satisfies a sharp lower bound on supΣ|ΦΣM̅|. Furthermore, we show that the lower bound is attained if, and only if, the soliton is isometric to a Riemannian product of ℝ and a parallel submanifold of the space form.

AB - This paper studies nontrivial Yamabe gradient solitons occurring as complete immersed hypersurfaces with constant scalar curvature in space forms (M̅^n(C), g̅). For solitons with non-vanishing gradients, we establish a structural characterization of the soliton by analyzing a regular level set Σ of the soliton function. In particular, imposing a suitable condition on the traceless part of the second fundamental form, Φ^Σ_M̅ of Σ as a submanifold of the space form, we prove that the soliton either decomposes as a Riemannian product of ℝ and a totally umbilical submanifold of the space form, or satisfies a sharp lower bound on sup_Σ|Φ^Σ_M̅|. Furthermore, we show that the lower bound is attained if, and only if, the soliton is isometric to a Riemannian product of ℝ and a parallel submanifold of the space form.
