Abstract: We define surfaces with harmonic inverse mean curvature in space forms and generalize a theorem due to Lawson by which surfaces of constant mean curvature in one space form isometrically correspond to those in another. We also obtain an immersion formula, which gives a deformation family for these surfaces.
