Jul 25, 2017 at 15:59 comment added Robert Bryant @IgorRivin: In fact, though, the homogeneous hypersurface case in Euclidean space is not very interesting: It's a classical fact that a homogeneous hypersurface in $\mathbb{E}^{n+1}$ is an orthogonal product of the form $S^p\times \mathbb{E}^{n-p}$ for some $0\le p\le n$. (This is far from the case in positive curvature, of course, i.e., in $S^{n+1}$, as there are quite a few interesting homogeneous hypersurfaces in that case. See the extensive work on isoparametric hypersurfaces, for example.)

Jul 24, 2017 at 18:27 comment added Igor Rivin Hypersurfaces seem more interesting...
