Rotational hypersurfaces with $L_r$-pointwise 1-type Gauss map
In this paper, we study hypersurfaces in $\E^{n+1}$ which Gauss map $G$ satisfies the equation $L_rG = f(G + C)$ for a smooth function $f$ and a constant vector $C$, where $L_r$ is the linearized operator of the $(r + 1)$th mean curvature of the hypersurface, i.e., $L_r(f)=tr(P_r\circ\nabla^2f)$ fo...

Summary: | In this paper, we study hypersurfaces in $\E^{n+1}$ which Gauss map $G$ satisfies the equation $L_rG = f(G + C)$ for a smooth function $f$ and a constant vector $C$, where $L_r$ is the linearized operator of the $(r + 1)$th mean curvature of the hypersurface, i.e., $L_r(f)=tr(P_r\circ\nabla^2f)$ for $f\in \mathcal{C}^\infty(M)$, where $P_r$ is the $r$th Newton transformation, $\nabla^2f$ is the Hessian of $f$, $L_rG=(L_rG_1,\ldots,L_rG_{n+1}), G=(G_1,\ldots,G_{n+1})$. We show that a rational hypersurface of revolution in a Euclidean space $\E^{n+1}$ has $L_r$-pointwise 1-type Gauss map of the second kind if and only if it is a right n-cone.
