Topic
Obstruction for the existence of prescribed
curvature
hypersurfaces
Speakers
Details
The problem of prescribing curvature of manifolds has been studied
quite a lot during the last decades. In this talk I will present a (non
complete) overview of existence/non existence results for hypersurfaces
for different types of curvature (mean curvature, scalar
curvature...)in the euclidean case, and I will present a few new
results in the case of closed hypersurfaces of prescribed mean
curvature (still in the euclidean case).
