Complete and Stable O(p+1)×O(q+1)-Invariant Hypersurfaces with Zero Scalar Curvature in Euclidean Space ℝ p+q+2

We classify the zero scalar curvature O(p+1)×O(q+1)-invariant hypersurfaces in the euclidean space ℝ ^p+q+2, p,q > 1, analyzing whether they are embedded and stable. The Morse index of the complete hypersurfaces show the existence of embedded, complete and globally stable zero scalar curvature O(p+1)×O(q+1)-invariant hypersurfaces in ℝ ^p+q+2, p+q≥ 7, which are not homeomorphic to ℝ ^p+q+1. Such stable examples provide counter-examples to a Bernstein-type conjecture in the stable class, for immersions with zero scalar curvature.
