In this study, we consider the notion of similar ruled surface for timelike and spacelike ruled surfaces in Minkowski 3-space. We obtain some properties of these special surfaces in E_1^3 and we show that developable ruled surfaces in E_1^3…
We define local indices for projective umbilics and godrons (also called cusps of Gauss) on generic smooth surfaces in projective 3-space. By means of these indices, we provide formulas that relate the algebraic numbers of those…
We investigate the geometric properties of marginally trapped surfaces (surfaces which have null mean curvature vector) in the spaces of oriented geodesics of Euclidean 3-space and hyperbolic 3-space, endowed with their canonical neutral…
We give an explicit construction of any simply-connected superconformal surface $\phi\colon M^2\to \R^4$ in Euclidean space in terms of a pair of conjugate minimal surfaces $g,h\colon M^2\to\R^4$. That $\phi$ is superconformal means that…
The geometry of closed surfaces equipped with a Euclidean metric with finitely many conical points of arbitrary angle is studied. The main result is that the image of a non-closed geodesic has 0 distance from the set of conical points.…
We show some characterizations of hyperspheres in the $(n+1)$-dimensional Euclidean space ${\Bbb E}^{n+1}$ with intrinsic and extrinsic properties such as the $n$-dimensional area of the sections cut off by hyperplanes, the…
Explicit harmonic and wave maps are typically available only in highly symmetric or constant-curvature settings, where additional symmetry or integrability structures are present. We develop a reduction framework for pseudo-Riemannian…
In this paper, we find all constant slope surfaces in the Euclidean 3-space, namely those surfaces for which the position vector of a point of the surface makes constant angle with the normal at the surface in that point. These surfaces…
We study the umbilic points of Willmore surfaces in codimension 1 from the viewpoint of the conformal Gauss map. We first study the local behaviour of the conformal Gauss map near umbilic curves and prove that they are geodesics up to a…
Several uniqueness results for non-compact complete stationary spacelike surfaces in an $n(\geq 3)$-dimensional Generalized Robertson Walker spacetime are obtained. In order to do that, we assume a natural inequality involving the Gauss…
Consider the energy $E_\alpha[\Sigma]=\int_\Sigma |p|^\alpha\, d\Sigma$, where $\Sigma$ is a surface in Euclidean space $\r^3$ and $\alpha\in\r$. We prove that planes and spheres are the only stationary surfaces for $E_\alpha$ with constant…
Let $M$ be an orientable surface immersed in the De Sitter space $S_1^3$ in $R^4_1$ or anti de Sitter space $H_1^3$ in $R^4_2$. In the case that $M$ is of $L_1$-2-type we prove that the following conditions are equivalent to each other: $M$…
We use the solution space of a pair of ODEs of at least second order to construct a smooth surface in Euclidean space. We describe when this surface is a proper embedding which is geodesically complete with finite total Gauss curvature. If…
We prove an existence and uniqueness theorem about spherical helicoidal (in particular, rotational) surfaces with prescribed mean or Gaussian curvature in terms of a continuous function depending on the distance to its axis. As an…
In this paper, we study biconservative surfaces with parallel normalized mean curvature vector field ($PNMC$) in the $4$-dimensional unit Euclidean sphere $\mathbb{S}^4$. First, we study the existence and uniqueness of such surfaces. We…
We classify the topological types of surfaces in the 3-dimensional unit sphere that contain both a great and a small circle through each point. In particular, these surfaces are homeomorphic to one of five normal forms and are either the…
We study homogeneous curves on some classes of reductive homogeneous spaces G=H which are geodesics with respect to any G-invariant metric on G=H. These curves are called equigeodesics. The spaces we consider are certain Stiefel manifolds…
In this paper, we continue the classification of finite type Gauss map surfaces in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^{3}$. We present an important family of surfaces, namely, tubes in $\mathbb{E}^{3}$. We show that the Gauss map…
In this paper, we consider surfaces of revolution in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space E3 with nonvanishing Gauss curvature. We introduce the finite Chen type surfaces concerning the third fundamental form of the surface. We present a…
In this study, we give the relationships between the conical curvatures of ruled surfaces drawn by the unit vectors of the ruling, central normal and central tangent of a regular ruled surface in the Euclidean -space. We obtain the…
