| Description | The motivation for this paper was to prove the following analogue of the Euclidean cylinder theorem: any umbilic-free isometric immersion between hyperbolic spaces takes the form of a hyperbolic -cylinder over a uniquely determined parallelizing curve in . Our approach is through the more general study of isometric immersions generated by one-parameter families of hyperbolic k-planes without focal points. A by-product of this study is a natural extension to curves in of the notion of a parallel family of k-planes along a curve in ; the extension is based on spherical symmetry of variation fields. Existence and uniqueness properties of this extended notion of parallelism are considered. |
