The 2-parameter family of certain homogeneous Lorentzian 3-manifolds which includes Minkowski 3-space and anti-de Sitter 3-space is considered. Each homogeneous Lorentzian 3-manifold in the 2-parameter family has a solvable Lie group…

If $\alpha\in\r$, an $\alpha$-stationary surface in Euclidean space is a surface $\Sigma$ whose mean curvature $H$ satisfies $H(p)=\alpha |p|^{-2} \langle\nu,p\rangle$, $p\in\Sigma$. These surfaces generalize in dimension two a classical…

We show that the singularities of spacelike maximal surfaces in Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space generically consist of cuspidal edges, swallowtails and cuspidal cross caps. The same result holds for spacelike mean curvature one surfaces in de…

The fact that minimal surfaces in the four-dimensional Euclidean space admit natural parameters implies that any minimal surface is determined uniquely up to a motion by two curvature functions, satisfying a system of two PDE's (the system…
