We study complete two-sided constant-mean-curvature hypersurfaces of dimensions $2\le n\le6$ and finite Morse index in simply connected space forms. In the round sphere the immersed domain is compact; in Euclidean space every noncompact example is minimal; in hyperbolic space of curvature $-1$ we obtain compactness under explicit dimension-dependent mean-curvature thresholds, from $H^2>1$ for surfaces to $H^2\ge5/3$ in dimension six. The conclusions also hold for the volume-constrained index, without properness, volume-growth, or curvature-bound assumptions. A common Green-function argument uses explicit rational combinations of eight identities and the stable Bernstein theorem of Hong-Li-Wang. Stable hyperbolic tubes show that no mean-curvature threshold independent of dimension can give compactness in all dimensions.
We study nonlinear mean-curvature spectral equations for hypersurfaces in Euclidean, spherical and hyperbolic space. For an admissible analytic response $F$ and ambient sectional curvature $c$, we prove minimality when the spectral parameter satisfies $\sigma\ge nc$, and strict mean-curvature bounds at gradient points...
For every integer $n\ge2$, we construct a smooth complete Riemannian metric $G_n$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with full curvature norm at most one and injectivity radius at least one for which no $C^2$ isometric immersion into a finite-dimensional Euclidean space has bounded mean curvature. In dimension two, bounded second funda...
We show that the sharp Euclidean isoperimetric inequality holds for domains in complete simply connected Riemannian $n$-manifolds of nonpositive sectional curvature, $3\leq n\leq9$, which establishes the Cartan-Hadamard conjecture in these dimensions. The main step is a sharp inequality for constant-mean-curvature hype...
Let $n\geq3$ and $0\leq\tau\leq2$. We prove that every smooth closed connected immersed hypersurface in hyperbolic space whose induced metric has positive $\tau$-bi-Ricci curvature admits a mean curvature flow with surgery which has only finitely many surgery times and terminates. In the range compatible with cylindric...
Let $M^3\to X^4$ be a complete, connected, two-sided stable minimal immersion. We prove that if the ambient sectional curvature is nonnegative and the ambient scalar curvature has a positive uniform lower bound, then $M$ is totally geodesic and its normal Ricci curvature vanishes. No weak bounded geometry assumption an...
This is the second article of a sequence of research on the local rigidity of constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurfaces in space forms. In the previous one, we studied the local rigidity of CMC hypersurfaces whose the number of the distinct principal curvatures satisfies $g\leq 3$. In this paper, we study the local r...
