Denote by \\(\\sigma\\) the length of the second fundamental form. In the present paper the author shows that there is a constant \\(C\\), depending only on \\(m\\), the mean curvature and \\(k\\), where \\((m-1)k\\) is the lower bound of the Ricci curvature, such that if \\((\\int_M \\sigma^{m/2})^{2/m} < C\\), then \\(M\\) is a totally umbilical hypersurface in a sphere \\(S^{m+1}\\). A similar result for surfaces, with Gaussian curvature playing the role of Ricci curvature, is also stated."},"provenance":{"prov:generatedAtTime":"2026-01-03T04:49:27Z","prov:wasAttributedTo":"MaRDI Knowledge Graph"}}
