Linear Weingarten surfaces foliated by circles in Minkowski space

Differential Geometry 2009-09-15 v1

Abstract

In this work, we study spacelike surfaces in Minkowski space E13E_1^3 foliated by pieces of circles and that satisfy a linear Weingarten condition of type aH+bK=ca H+b K=c, where a,ba,b and cc are constant and HH and KK denote the mean curvature and the Gauss curvature respectively. We show that such surfaces must be surfaces of revolution or surfaces with constant mean curvature H=0 or surfaces with constant Gauss curvature K=0.
