Para Blaschke isoparametric spacelike hypersurfaces in Lorentzian space forms

Abstract

Let $M^n$ be an $n$-dimensional umbilic-free hypersurface in the $(n+1)$-dimensional Lorentzian space form $M_1^{n+1}(c)$. Three basic invariants of $M^n$ under the conformal transformation group of $M_1^{n+1}(c)$ are a $1$-form $C$, called conformal $1$-form, a symmetric $(0,2)$ tensor $B$, called conformal second fundamental form, and a symmetric $(0,2)$ tensor $A$, called Blaschke tensor. The so-called para-Blaschke tensor $D^{\lambda }=A+\lambda B$, the linear combination of $A$ and $B$, is still a symmetric $(0,2)$ tensor. A spacelike hypersurface is called a para-Blaschke isoparametric spacelike hypersurface, if the conform $1$-form vanishes and the eigenvalues of the para-Blaschke tensor are constant. In this paper, we classify the para-Blaschke isoparametric spacelike hypersurfaces under the conformal group of $M_1^{n+1}(c)$.
