Abstract

In this paper we classify Euclidean hypersurfaces f: Mn→ Rn+1 with a principal curvature of multiplicity n- 2 that admit a genuine conformal deformation f~ : Mn→ Rn+2. That f~ : Mn→ Rn+2 is a genuine conformal deformation of f means that it is a conformal immersion for which there exists no open subset U⊂ Mn such that the restriction f~ | U is a composition f~|U=h∘f|U of f| U with a conformal immersion h: V→ Rn+2 of an open subset V⊂ Rn+1 containing f(U).
