چکیده

By establishing some differential geometry theory on the 1-lightlike surfaces, we show several geometric properties of the 1-lightlike surfaces which are completely different from non-lightlike surfaces. Based on these theories, we consider the singularities of the 1-lightlike surfaces in semiEuclidean 4-space with index two as an application of the theory of Legendrian singularities. We characterize the singularities of the 1-lightlike focal hypersurfaces and describe the contacts between the 1-lightlike surface and the anti de Sitter 3-sphere at singular points by employing Montaldi’s theory. In addition, we also discuss the detailed differential geometric properties of the 1-lightlike focal hypersurfaces in semi-Euclidean 4-space with index 2. Finally, an example will be proposed to explain our findings. c ©2016 All rights reserved.

On the Quaternionic Curves in the Semi-Euclidean Space E_4_2

In this study, we investigate the semi-real quaternionic curves in the semi-Euclidean space E_4_2. Firstly, we introduce algebraic properties of semi-real quaternions. Then, we give some characterizations of semi-real quaternionic involute-evolute curves in the semi-Euclidean space E42 . Finally, we give an example illustrated with Mathematica Programme.

Characterizations of Slant Ruled Surfaces in the Euclidean 3-space

In this study, we give the relationships between the conical curvatures of ruled surfaces generated by the unit vectors of the ruling, central normal and central tangent of a ruled surface in the Euclidean 3-space E^3. We obtain differential equations characterizing slant ruled surfaces and if the reference ruled surface is a slant ruled surface, we give the conditions for the surfaces generate...

Weierstrass Representation for Timelike Minimal Surfaces in Minkowski 3-space

Using techniques of integrable systems, we study a Weierstraß representation formula for timelike surfaces with prescribed mean curvature in Minkowski 3-space. It is shown that timelike minimal surfaces are obtained by integrating a pair of Lorentz holomorphic and Lorentz antiholomorphic null curves in Minkowski 3-space. The relationship between timelike minimal surfaces and bosonic Nambu-Goto ...

Ascreen Lightlike Hypersurfaces of a Semi-riemannian Space Form with a Semi-symmetric Non-metric Connection

We study lightlike hypersurfaces of a semi-Riemannian space form M̃(c) admitting a semi-symmetric non-metric connection. First, we construct a type of lightlike hypersurfaces according to the form of the structure vector field of M̃(c), which is called a ascreen lightlike hypersurface. Next, we prove a characterization theorem for such an ascreen lightlike hypersurface endow with a totally geodes...
