On the stability of spacelike hypersurfaces with higher order mean curvature in a de Sitter space

Shicheng Zhang

Abstract

The closed spacelike hypersurfaces with higher order mean curvature is discussed in a de Sitter space. The hypersurface is proved stable if and only if it is totally umbilical.

Keywords: de Sitter space, spacelike hypersurface, stability, higher order mean curvature
