In this paper we study surfaces in Euclidean 3-space that satisfy a Weingarten condition of linear type as $\kappa_1=m \kappa_2 +n$, where $m$ and $n$ are real numbers and $\kappa_1$ and $\kappa_2$ denote the principal curvatures at each…

We consider polyhedra and 4-polytopes in Minkowski spacetime - in particular, null polyhedra with zero volume, and 4-polytopes that have such polyhedra as their hyperfaces. We present the basic properties of several classes of null-faced…

We introduce a new curvature condition for high-codimension submanifolds of a Riemannian ambient space, called quasi-parallel mean curvature (QPMC). The class of submanifolds with QPMC includes all CMC hypersurfaces and submanifolds with…

The Minkowski inequality is a classical inequality in differential geometry, giving a bound from below, on the total mean curvature of a convex surface in Euclidean space, in terms of its area. Recently there has been interest in proving…

In this work, we study plane and spherical curves in Euclidean and Lorentz-Minkowski 3-spaces by employing rotation minimizing (RM) frames. By conveniently writing the curvature and torsion for a curve on a sphere, we show how to find the…

A semi-Riemannian manifold is said to satisfy $R\ge K$ (or $R\le K$) if spacelike sectional curvatures are $\ge K$ and timelike ones are $\le K$ (or the reverse). Such spaces are abundant, as warped product constructions show; they include,…

In this paper we review some author's results about Weingarten surfaces in Euclidean space $\r^3$ and hyperbolic space $\h^3$. We stress here in the search of examples of linear Weingarten surfaces that satisfy a certain geometric property.…
