摘要

We first establish a complete variational theory for triharmonic maps between pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. As a central application, we then characterize the stability of triharmonic CMC hypersurfaces in pseudo-Riemannian space forms. Our analysis reveals a fundamental and decisive divergence from the Riemannian setting.
