Rigidity theorems of Clifford Torus

Let M be an n-dimensional closed minimally immersed hypersurface in the unit sphere Sn + 1. Assume in addition that M has constant scalar curvature or constant Gauss-Kronecker curvature. In this note we announce that if M has (n - 1) principal curvatures with the same sign everywhere, then M is isometric to a Clifford Torus <img src="http:/img/fbpe/aabc/v73n3/03ab.gif" alt="03ab.gif (725 bytes)" align="middle">.
