Stronger Chern conjecture for minimal hypersurfaces
Let be a closed, minimally immersed hypersurface of the unit sphere with constant scalar curvature. Stronger version of Chern's conjecture. Then is isoparametric. Motivated by isoparametric theory, this hypersurface formulation strengthens the general discreteness conjecture. Isoparametric hypersurfaces are the only known examples described in the source, and the conjecture remains open in general.
