Abstract:For a normal variation of a hypersurface M n in a space form Q c n+1 by a normal vector field fN, R. Reilly proved:

$$\frac{d}{{dt}}S_{r + 1} (t)|_{t = 0}  = L_r f + (S_1 S_{r + 1}  - (r + 2)S_{r + 2} )f + c(n - r)S_r f,$$
where L r (0 < r < n – 1) is the linearized operator of the (r + 1)-mean curvature S r+1 of Mn given by L r = div(P r nabla); that is, L r = the divergence of the rth Newton transformation P r of the second fundamental form applied to the gradient nabla, and L0 = Delta the Laplacian of Mn.From the Dirichlet integral formula for L r

$$\int {_{M^n } } (fL_r g + \left\langle {P_r \nabla f,\nabla g} \right\rangle ) = 0$$
new integral formulas are obtained by making different choices of f and g, generalizing known formulas for the Laplacian. The method gives a systematic process for proofs and a unified treatment for some Minkowski type formulas, via L r .
Keywords:integral formula  linearized operator L r   r-mean curvature
