    Minimal submanifolds with second fundamental form of constant length in a pseudo-Riemannian manifold (English)
    0 references
    The authors study minimal spacelike submanifolds in pseudo-Riemannian space forms. In particular, following the ideas of \textit{S. S. Chern, M. P. do Carmo} and \textit{S. Kobayashi} [Funct. Anal. Relat. Fields, Conf. Chicago 1968, 59-75 (1970; Zbl 0216.44001)] the authors compute the Laplacian of the square of the length of the second fundamental form for such submanifolds, and use it to derive some consequences.
