We define a Gauss map for surfaces in the universal cover of the Lie group PSL_2(R) endowed with a left-invariant Riemannian metric having a 4-dimensional isometry group. This Gauss map is not related to the Lie group structure. We prove…

We study Hamiltonian stationary Lagrangian surfaces in C^2, i.e. Lagrangian surfaces in C^2 which are stationary points of the area functional under smooth Hamiltonian variations. Using loop groups, we propose a formulation of the equation…

In this paper we construct complete convex hypersurfaces in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ which translate under the flow by powers $\alpha \in (0, \frac1{n+2})$ of the Gauss curvature. The level set of each solution is asymptotic to a shrinking soliton…

A Willmore surface $y:M\rightarrow S^{n+2}$ has a natural harmonic oriented conformal Gauss map $Gr_y:M\rightarrow SO^{+}(1,n+3)/SO(1,3)\times SO(n)$, which maps each point $p\in M$ to its oriented mean curvature 2-sphere at $p$. An easy…

The generalized Weierstrass representation is used to analyze the asymptotic behavior of a constant mean curvature surface that arises locally from an ordinary differential equation with a regular singularity. We prove that a holomorphic…

We get new results (and rederive some know ones) on smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^n$ by unifying several view points into a coherent general view. Namely, we show and use new relations of the evolute (caustic) with the curvature ellipse,…

A minimal Lorentz surface in $\mathbb R^4_2$ is said to be of general type if its corresponding null curves are non-degenerate. These surfaces admit canonical isothermal and canonical isotropic coordinates. It is known that the Gauss…

Given a unit vector $\textbf{v}\in\mathbb{R}^3$ and $\lambda\in\mathbb{R}$, a translating $\lambda$-soliton is a surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$ whose mean curvature $H$ satisfies $H=\langle N,\textbf{v}\rangle+\lambda,\ |\textbf{v}|=1$, where…

We deal with solitons of the mean curvature flow. The definition of \textit{translating solitons on a light-like direction} in Minkowski 3-space is introduced. Firstly, we classify those which are graphical, \textit{translation surfaces},…

We describe tools for the study of minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^4$; some are classical (the Gauss maps) and some are newer (the link/braid/writhe at infinity). Then we look for complete proper non holomorphic minimal tori with total…
