Abstract

We introduce the notion horospherical curvatures of hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space andshow that totally umbilic hypersurfaces with vanishing curvatures are only horospheres. We also show that the Gauss-Bonnet type theorem holds for the horospherical Gauss-Kronecker curvature of a closed orientable even dimensional hypersurface in hyperbolic space.
