Characterization of hypersurfaces in four dimensional product spaces via two different Spin^c structures

The Riemannian product M1(c1)×M2(c2), where Mi(ci) denotes the 2-dimensional space form of constant sectional curvature ci ∈ R, has two different Spin c structures carrying each a parallel spinor. The restriction of these two parallel spinor fields to a 3-dimensional hypersurface M characterizes the...

Description
Summary:The Riemannian product M1(c1)×M2(c2), where Mi(ci) denotes the 2-dimensional space form of constant sectional curvature ci ∈ R, has two different Spin c structures carrying each a parallel spinor. The restriction of these two parallel spinor fields to a 3-dimensional hypersurface M characterizes the isometric immersion of M into M1(c1) × M2(c2). As an application, we prove that totally umbilical hypersurfaces of M1(c1) × M1(c1) and totally umbilical hypersurfaces of M1(c1) × M2(c2) (c1 = c2) having a local structure product, are of constant mean curvature.
