Abstract

We derive the Hessian estimate of the ω-function defined on the pseudo-Grassmann manifold Gn,mm, which is convex by the estimate. As an application, we give a direct proof of the Bernstein-type theorem due to Y. Xin [Manuscripta Math., 2000, 103: 191-202]. We also estimate the squared norm of the second fundamental form of a complete spacelike submanifold in pseudo- Euclidean space in terms of the ω-function and the mean curvature.

Keywords Pseudo-Euclidean space      pseudo-Grassmann manifold      Bernsteintype theorem
