The gesture would almost certainly be seen as an implicit declaration of war, since the country performing the assassination made an express act on reducing the capabilities and power of another state, thus violently intruding on it's sovereignty (this would be a realist approach, of course, but liberal and constructivist approaches can be found as well). Although I don't think such an event is formalized in any code of law (of any country I know of) there is sort-of a precedent where the assassination of a head of state lead to war (and that's World War I).

Can a president of another country visit a president in his own country without informing his coming?

He could if he had the proper papers to enter the country (visa) and re-enter his own (passport). He might not get to see the other president. If he wanted to make a secret visit, it would be smarter to ask his ambassador to arrange it.
