Abstract:
We apply some generalized maximum principles for establishing uniqueness and
nonexistence results concerning maximal spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in
a generalized Robertson-Walker (GRW) spacetime, which is supposed to obey
the so-called timelike convergence condition (TCC). As application, we study
the uniqueness and nonexistence of entire solutions of a suitable maximal
spacelike hypersurface equation in GRW spacetimes obeying the TCC.
