Rigidity and nonexistence of complete spacelike hypersurfaces in the steady state space

We study complete spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in an open region of the de Sitter space $\mathbb{S}^{n+1}_{1}$ which is known as the steady state space $\mathcal{H}^{n+1}$. In this setting, under suitable constraints on the behavior of the higher order mean curvatures of these hypersurfaces, we prove that they must be spacelike hyperplanes of $\mathcal{H}^{n+1}$. Nonexistence results concerning these spacelike hypersurfaces are also given. Our approach is based on a suitable extension of the Omori-Yau's generalized maximum principle due to Al\'ıas, Impera and Rigoli in [5].

Rigidity of spacelike hypersurfaces in spatially weighted generalized Robertson-Walker spacetimes

Our purpose in this paper is to apply some maximum principles in order to study the rigidity of complete spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in a spatially weighted generalized Robertson-Walker (GRW) spacetime, which is supposed to obey the so called strong null convergence condition. Under natural constraints on the weight function and on the f-mean curvature, we establish sufficient conditions to guarantee that such a hypersurface must be a slice of the ambient space. In this setting, we also obtain new Calabi-Bernstein type results concerning entire graphs in a spatially weighted GRW spacetime.

$ϕ$-parabolicity and the uniqueness of spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in a spatially weighted GRW spacetime

In this paper, we extend a technique due to Romero, Rubio and Salamanca establishing sufficient conditions to guarantee the parabolicity of complete spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in a weighted generalized Robertson-Walker spacetime whose fiber has phi-parabolic universal Riemannian covering. As some applications of this criteria, we obtain uniqueness results concerning spacelikes hypersurfaces immersed in spatially weighted generalized Robertson-Walker spacetimes. Furthermore, Calabi-Bernstein type results are also given.
