We show that any metric on S 2 with Gauss curvature K ≥ −κ admits a C 1,1 -isometric embedding into the hyperbolic space with sectional curvature −κ. We also give a sufficient condition for a metric on S 2 to be isometrically embedded into anti-de Sitter spacetime with the prescribed cosmological time function.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
