Abstract
We classify all rotational surfaces in Euclidean space whose principal curvatures and satisfy the linear relation , where and are two constants. We give a variational characterization of these surfaces in terms of its generating curve. As a consequence of our classification, we find closed (embedded and not embedded) surfaces and periodic (embedded and not embedded) surfaces with a geometric behaviour similar to Delaunay surfaces.
