Liebmann [12] proved that the only ovaloids with constant mean curvature in a 3-dimensional Euclidean space are spheres. This result has been generalized to the case of convex closed hypersurfaces in an m-dimensional Euclidean space by Alexandrov [1], Bonnesen and Fenchel [3], Hopf [4], Hsiung [5], and Süss [14].

The result has been further generalized to the case of closed hypersurfaces in an m-dimensional Riemannian manifold by Alexandrov [2], Hsiung [6], Katsurada [7; 8; 9], Ōtsuki [13], and by myself [15; 16].

The attempt to generalize the result to the case of closed submanifolds in an m-dimensional Riemannian manifold has been recently done by Katsurada [10; 11], Kôjyô [10], and Nagai [11].
