Abstract

In this paper, we study the elliptic Weingarten surfaces of minimal type immersed in the warped product space R×hR\mathbb{R} \times_{h} \mathbb{R}, when hh is a C1C^{1}-function in R2\mathbb{R}^{2} with radial symmetry. That is, surfaces whose mean curvature HH and extrinsic curvature KK satisfy a relationship H=f(H2K)H=f(H^{2}-K) where fC1(ϵ,+)f \in C^{1}(-\epsilon,+\infty) with ϵ>0\epsilon > 0, f(0)=0f(0)=0 and 4t(f(t))2<14t(f'(t))^{2} < 1 for t(ϵ,)t \in (-\epsilon,\infty). We show, under some assumptions about the warping function hh, the existence and uniqueness of the rotationally-invariant examples of elliptic Weingarten of minimal type surfaces immersed in R×hR\mathbb{R} \times_{h} \mathbb{R} as well as we study the geometric behavior of its generating curve.
