In the tangent plane at any point of a surface in the four-dimensional Euclidean space we consider an invariant linear map of Weingarten-type and find a geometrically determined moving frame field. Writing derivative formulas of Frenet-type…

Capillarity functionals are parameter invariant functionals defined on classes of two-dimensional parametric surfaces in R3 as the sum of the area integral and a non homogeneous term of suitable form. Here we consider the case of a class of…
