Abstract.

Here we study complete rotation hypersurfaces with constant k-th mean curvature H k in \( \mathbb{S}^{{n + 1}},k \) even and 2 < k < n. We prove the existence of a constant \( H^{0}_{k} < 0 \) such that there are no such hypersurfaces for \( H_{k} < H^{0}_{k} \) . We have only one compact hypersurface of this kind with \( H_{k} = H^{0}_{k} \) . For each \( H^{0}_{k} < H_{k} < 0 \) there is a corresponding family of complete immersed rotation hypersurfaces, each family containing two isoparametric hypersurfaces. For H k ≥ 0, there is also such a family, now containing only one isoparametric hypersurface. Finally, we prove the existence of compact hypersurfaces with arbitrarily large H k , neither isometric to a sphere nor to a product of spheres.
