Abstract

Consider the Euclidean space R3\mathbb{R}^3 endowed with a canonical semi-symmetric non-metric connection determined by a vector field CX(R3)\mathsf{C}\in\mathfrak{X}(\mathbb{R}^3). We study surfaces when the sectional curvature with respect to this connection is constant. In case that the surface is cylindrical, we obtain full classification when the rulings are orthogonal or parallel to C\mathsf{C}. If the surface is rotational, we prove that the rotation axis is parallel to C\mathsf{C} and we classify all conical rotational surfaces with constant sectional curvature. Finally, for the particular case 12\frac12 of the sectional curvature, the existence of rotational surfaces orthogonally intersecting the rotation axis is also obtained.
