Consider a surface $M^2$ with Gaussian curvature either $< 0$ or $> 0$. We prove that in $M^2\times \mathbb{R}^n$ cylinders are characterized as the hypersurfaces with both the extrinsic and intrinsic curvatures equal to zero.

We prove that every complete connected immersed surface with positive extrinsic curvature $K$ in $H^2\times R$ must be properly embedded, homeomorphic to a sphere or a plane and, in the latter case, study the behavior of the end. Then, we…

Let $S$ be a surface of nonpositive curvature of genus bigger than 1 (i.e. not the torus). We prove that any flat strip in the surface is in fact a flat cylinder. Moreover we prove that the number of homotopy classes of such flat cylinders…

In this paper we investigate constant mean curvature surfaces with nonempty boundary in Euclidean space that meet a right cylinder at a constant angle along the boundary. If the surface lies inside of the cylinder, we obtain some results of…
