Quasi-umbilical, locally strongly convex homogeneous affine hypersurfaces

Affine complete locally convex hypersurfaces

An open problem in affine geometry is whether an affine complete locally uniformly convex hypersurface in Euclidean (n + 1)-space is Euclidean complete for n ≥ 2. In this paper we give the affirmative answer. As an application, it follows that an affine complete, affine maximal surface in R3 must be an elliptic paraboloid.

On Locally Convex Hypersurfaces with Boundary

In this paper we give some geometric characterizations of locally convex hypersurfaces. In particular, we prove that for a given locally convex hypersurface M with boundary, there exists r > 0 depending only on the diameter of M and the principal curvatures of M on its boundary, such that the r-neighbourhood of any given point on M is convex. As an application we prove an existence theorem for ...

On hypersurfaces in a locally affine Riemannian Banach manifold II

In our previous work (2002), we proved that an essential second-order hypersurface in an infinite-dimensional locally affine Riemannian Banach manifold is a Riemannian manifold of constant nonzero curvature. In this note, we prove the converse; in other words, we prove that a hypersurface of constant nonzero Riemannian curvature in a locally affine (flat) semiRiemannian Banach space is an essen...
