We study non-compact complete spacelike hypersurfaces in generalized Robertson–Walker spacetimes of arbitrary dimension whose fiber is parabolic. Under boundedness assumptions on the warping function restricted on a spacelike hypersurface and on the hyperbolic angle of the hypersurface, we prove that a complete spacelike hypersurface is parabolic if the Riemannian universal covering of the fiber is so. As an application of this new technique, several uniqueness results on complete maximal spacelike hypersurfaces are obtained. Also, the corresponding Calabi–Bernstein problems are solved.

AbstractBernstein's theorem states that the only complete minimal graphs in R3 are the hyperplanes. We shall produce evidence in favour of some conjectural generalizations of this theorem for the cases of spacelike hypersurfaces of constant mean curvature in Minkowski space and in de Sitter space. The results suggest that the class of asymptotically simple space-times admitting a complete spacelike hypersurface of constant mean curvature may well be considerably smaller than the general class of asymptotically simple space-times.
