Resumen
Given a positive function F defined on the unit Euclidean sphere and satisfying a suitable convexity condition, we consider, for hypersurfaces Mn immersed in the Euclidean space Rn+1, the so-called k-th anisotropic mean curvatures HF k, 0 ≤ k ≤ n. For fixed 0 ≤ r ≤ s ≤ n, a hypersurface Mn of Rn+1 is said to be (r, s, F)-linear Weingarten when its k-th anisotropic mean curvatures HF k, r ≤ k ≤ s, are linearly related. In this setting, we establish the concept of stability concerning closed (r, s, F)-linear Weingarten hypersurfaces immersed in Rn+1 and, afterwards, we prove that such a hypersurface is stable if, and only if, up to translations and homotheties, it is the Wulff shape of F. For r = s and F ≡ 1, our results amount to the standard stability studied, for instance, by Alencar–do Carmo–Rosenberg.
