Rotational Hypersurfaces with Constant Gauss-Kronecker Curvature

The authors study rotational hypersurfaces with constant Gauss-Kronecker curvature in Rⁿ. They solve the ODE associated with the generating curve of such hypersurface using integral expressions and obtain several geometric properties of such hypersurfaces. In particular, they discover a class of non-compact rotational hypersurfaces with constant and negative Gauss-Kronecker curvature and finite volume, which can be seen as the higher-dimensional generalization of the pseudo-sphere.
