A stationary rotating surface is a compact surface in Euclidean space whose mean curvature $H$ at each point $x$ satisfies $2H(x)=a r^2+b$, where $r$ is the distance from $x$ to a fixed straight-line $L$, and $a$ and $b$ are constants.…

A smooth T-surface can be thought of as a generalization of a surface of revolution in such a way that the axis of rotation is not fixed at one point but rather traces a smooth path on the base plane. Furthermore, the action, by which the…
