Abstract

In the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group Hn, with n⩾2, we prove that hyperplanes are the only entire hypersurfaces with vanishing horizontal symmetric second fundamental form. This result is applied in a subsequent work to establish a Bernstein-type theorem in H2, marking a significant step towards understanding the sub-Riemannian Bernstein problem.
