The Euler characteristic of hypersurfaces in space forms and applications to isoparametric hypersurfaces

R. Albuquerque

Published 2021-02-17Version 1

We revisit Allendoerfer-Weil's formula for the Euler characteristic of embedded hypersurfaces in constant sectional curvature manifolds, first taking the opportunity to re-prove it while demonstrating techniques of [2] and then applying it to gain new understanding of isoparametric hypersurfaces.
