In this paper we will prove Hadamard–Stoker type theorems in the following ambient spaces: $${\mathcal{M}^n \times \mathbb{R}}$$, where $${\mathcal{M}^n}$$ is a 1/4−pinched manifold, and certain Killing submersions, e.g., Berger spheres and Heisenberg spaces. That is, under the condition that the principal curvatures of an immersed hypersurface are greater than some non-negative constant (depending on the ambient space), we prove that such a hypersurface is embedded and we also study its…

The space of Constant Mean Curvature surfaces in compact Riemannian Manifolds
The main point of this paper is that, under suitable conditions on the mean curvature and the Ricci curvature of the ambient space, we can extend Choi-Schoen's Compactness Theorem to compact embedded…

We generalize Hadamard-Stoker-Currier Theorems for surfaces immersed in a Killing submersion over a strictly Hadamard surface whose fibers are the trajectories of a unit Killing field. We prove that…
Local convexity and nonnegative curvature —Gromov's proof of the sphere theorem
