Abstract: |
Let $M^4$ be a closed minimal hypersurface in $\mathbb{S}^5$ with
constant nonnegative scalar curvature. Denote by $f_3$ the sum of
the cubes of all principal curvatures, by $g$ the number of distinct
principal curvatures. It is proved that if both $f_3$ and $g$ are
constant, then $M^4$ is isoparametric. Moreover, the authors give
all possible values for squared length of the second fundamental
form of $M^4$. This result provides another piece of supporting
evidence to the Chern conjecture. |
