Abstract

We consider Einstein hypersurfaces of warped products Ix(omega)Q(epsilon)(n), where I subset of R is an open interval and Q(epsilon)(n) is the simply connected space form of dimension n >= 2 and constant sectional curvature c epsilon. {-1, 0, 1}. We show that, for all c epsilon R (resp. c > 0), there exist rotational hypersurfaces of constant sectional curvature c in I x (omega) Hn and I x (omega) Rn (resp. I x (omega) S-n), provided that omega is nonconstant. We also show that the gradient T of the height function of any Einstein hypersurface of I x (omega)Q(epsilon)(n) (if nonzero) is one of its principal directions. Then, we consider a particular type of Einstein hypersurface of I x (omega)Q(epsilon)(n) with non vanishing T-which we call ideal-and prove that, for n > 3, such a hypersurface Sigma has either precisely two or precisely three distinct principal curvatures everywhere. We show that, in the latter case, there exist such a Sigma for certain warping functions omega whereas in the former case S is necessarily of constant sectional curvature and rotational, regardless the warping function.. We also characterize ideal Einstein hypersurfaces of I x (omega) Q(epsilon)(n) with no vanishing angle function as local graphs on families of isoparametric hypersurfaces of Q(epsilon)(n) (AU)
