Minimal null scrolls in the three-dimensional Heisenberg group

Differential Geometry 2024-02-27 v2

Abstract

In the three-dimensional Heisenberg group equipped with a certain left invariant Lorentzian metric, timelike minimal surfaces which have the Abresch-Rosenberg differentials with vanishing multiplication of the coefficient function and its para-complex conjugate are characterized as the surfaces defined by the multiplication of null curves and affine null lines. Moreover, the constructions of these surfaces with prescribed curvatures of null curves or prescribed null lines are given.
