We prove several topological properties of linear Weingarten surfaces of Bryant type, as wave fronts in hyperbolic 3-space. For example, we show the orientability of such surfaces, and also co-orientability when they are not flat. Moreover,…

We follow the method of ABP estimate in \cite{brendle2021} and apply it to spacelike submanifolds in $\mathbb R^{n,1}$. We then obtain Michael-Simon type inequalities. Surprisingly, our investigation leads to a Sobolev inequality without a…

On any space-like W-surface in the three-dimensional Minkowski space we introduce locally natural principal parameters and prove that such a surface is determined uniquely up to motion by a special invariant function, which satisfies a…
