Abstract
We extend the theorem of B. Daniel about the existence and uniqueness of immersions into \({\mathbb{S}^{n}\,\times\,\mathbb{R}\, {\rm or}\, \mathbb{H}^{n}\,\times\,\mathbb{R}}\) to the Riemannian product of two space forms. More precisely, we prove the existence and uniqueness of an isometric immersion of a Riemannian manifold into the Riemannian product of two space forms.
