Abstract

Let f : Mn → ℝn+1 be an immersed umbilic-free hypersurface in an (n + 1)-dimensional Euclidean space ℝn+1 with standard metric I = df · df. Let II be the second fundamental form of the hypersurface f . One can define the Möbius metric g = n/n-1 (∥II∥2 - n∥trII∥2)I on f which is invariant under the conformal transformations (or the Möbius transformations) of ℝn+1. The sectional curvature, Ricci curvature with respect to the Möbius metric g is called Möbius sectional curvature, Möbius Ricci curvature, respectively. The purpose of this paper is to classify hypersurfaces with constant Möbius Ricci curvature.
