Abstract

We consider closed hypersurfaces of the sphere with scalar curvature one, prove a gap theorem for a modified second fundamental form and determine the hypersurfaces that are at the end points of the gap. As an application we characterize the closed, two-sided index one hypersurfaces with scalar curvature one in the real projective space.
