NEW CHARACTERIZATIONS OF COMPLETE SPACELIKE SUBMANIFOLDS IN SEMI-RIEMANNIAN SPACE FORMS

Abstract

In this paper we study n-dimensional complete spacelike submanifolds with constant normalized scalar curvature immersed in semi-Riemannian space forms. By extending Cheng-Yau`s technique to these ambients, we obtain results to such submanifolds satisfying certain conditions on both the squared norm of the second fundamental form and the mean curvature. We also characterize compact non-negatively curved submanifolds in De Sitter space of index p.
