In this paper, we study the Gauss map of the surfaces in the de Sitter space-time $\mathbb S^4_1(1)$. First, we prove that a space-like surface lying in the de Sitter space-time has pointwise 1-type Gauss map if and only if it has parallel…
Consider the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^3$ endowed with a canonical semi-symmetric non-metric connection determined by a vector field $\mathsf{C}\in\mathfrak{X}(\mathbb{R}^3)$. We study surfaces when the sectional curvature with respect to…
The geometry and topology of complete nonorientable maximal surfaces with lightlike singularities in the Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space are studied. Some topological congruence formulae for surfaces of this kind are obtained. As a consequence,…
A minimal space-like surface in Minkowski space-time is said to be of general type if it is free of degenerate points. The fact that minimal space-like surfaces of general type in Minkowski space-time admit canonical parameters of the first…
We construct and investigate smooth orientable surfaces in su(N) algebras. The structural equations of surfaces associated with Grassmannian sigma models on Minkowski space are studied using moving frames adapted to the surfaces. The first…
For a regular surface in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^3$, umbilic points are precisely the points where the Gauss and mean curvatures $K$ and $H$ satisfy $H^2=K$; moreover, it is well-known that the only totally umbilic surfaces in…
We consider a special class of timelike surfaces in the four-dimensional Minkowski space which are one-parameter systems of meridians of rotational hypersurfaces with spacelike axis and call them meridian surfaces of hyperbolic type. We…
In this paper, we can obtain curvature estimates for spacelike admissible graphic hypersurfaces in the $(n+1)$-dimensional Lorentz-Minkowski space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}_{1}$, and through which the existence of spacelike admissible graphic…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions on the curvature and the torsion of a regular curve of the space forms $\h^3$ and $\s^3$ to be contained in a totally umbilical surface. In case that the curve has constant torsion, we obtain the…
A quantum deformation of the conformal algebra of the Minkowskian spacetime in $(3+1)$ dimensions is identified with a deformation of the $(4+1)$-dimensional AdS algebra. Both Minkowskian and AdS first-order non-commutative spaces are…
In this paper, by taking into account the beginning of the hypersurface theory in Euclidean space $E^4$, a practical method for the matrix of the Weingarten map (or the shape operator) of an oriented hypersurface $M^3$ in $E^4$ is obtained.…
We give an infinite dimensional generalized Weierstrass representation for spacelike constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces in Minkowski 3-space $\real^{2,1}$. The formulation is analogous to that given by Dorfmeister, Pedit and Wu for CMC…
In this letter we discuss the possibility of treating the spacetime by itself as a kind of deformable body for which we can define an fundamental lattice, just like atoms in crystal lattices. We show three signs pointing in that direction.…
A spacelike surface S immersed in a 4-dimensional Lorentzian manifold will be said to be umbilical along a direction N normal to S if the second fundamental form along N is proportional to the first fundamental form of S. In particular, S…
The essential features of a quantum group deformation of classical symmetries of General Relativity in the case with non-vanishing cosmological constant $\Lambda$ are presented. We fully describe (anti-)de Sitter non-commutative spacetimes…
One primary objective in submanifold geometry is to discover fascinating and significant classical examples of $H_1$. In this paper which relies on the theory we established in [Adv. Math. 405 (2022), 08514, 50 pages, arXiv:2101.11780] and…
We study singularities of spacelike, constant (non-zero) mean curvature (CMC) surfaces in the Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space $L^3$. We show how to solve the singular Bj\"orling problem for such surfaces, which is stated as follows: given a real…
Traditional geometry employs idealized concepts like that of a point or a curve, the operational definition of which relies on the availability of classical point particles as probes. Real, physical objects are quantum in nature though,…
In this paper we study lightlike surfaces of Minkowski 3- space such that they have degenerate or non-degenerate planar normal sections. We first show that every lightlike surface of Minkowski $3-$ space has degenerate planar normal…
