Lorentz transformation equations provide us a set of relations between the spacetime coordinates as observed from two different inertial frames. In case, one of the frames is moving with a uniform rectilinear acceleration we have Rindler's…
We prove that for any open Riemann surface $M$ and any non constant harmonic function $h:M \to \mathbb{R},$ there exists a complete conformal minimal immersion $X:M \to \mathbb{R}^3$ whose third coordinate function coincides with $h.$ As a…

We give a complete classification of Riemannian and Lorentzian surfaces of arbitrary codimension in a pseudo-sphere whose pseudo-spherical Gauss maps are of 1-type or, in particular, harmonic. In some cases a concrete global classification…

We study infinitesimal conformal deformations of a triangulated surface in Euclidean space and investigate the change in its extrinsic geometry. A deformation of vertices is conformal if it preserves length cross-ratios. On one hand,…
The SU(3)/U(1) x U(1) harmonic variables are used in the harmonic-superspace representation of the D=4, N=3 SYM-equations. The harmonic superfield equations of motion in the simple non-covariant gauge contain the nilpotent harmonic analytic…
