ec 2 00 4 Periodic Maximal surfaces in the Lorentz - Minkowski space L

چکیده
A maximal surface S with isolated singularities in a complete flat Lorentzian 3-manifold N is said to be entire if it lifts to a (periodic) entire multigraph S̃ in L. In addition, S is called of finite type if it has finite topology, finitely many singular points and S̃ is finitely sheeted. Complete and proper maximal immersions with isolated singularities in N are entire, and entire embedded maximal surfaces in N with a finite number of singularities are of finite type. We classify complete flat Lorentzian 3-manifolds carrying entire maximal surfaces of finite type, and deal with the topology, Weierstrass representation and asymptotic behavior of this kind of surfaces. Finally, we construct new examples of periodic entire embedded maximal surfaces in L with fundamental piece having finitely many singularities.

Translation Surfaces of the Third Fundamental Form in Lorentz-Minkowski Space
In this paper we study translation surfaces with the non-degenerate third fundamental form in Lorentz- Minkowski space $mathbb{L}^{3}$. As a result, we classify translation surfaces satisfying an equation in terms of the position vector field and the Laplace operator with respect to the third fundamental form $III$ on the surface.

We prove that the Lorentzian helicoid and Enneper’s surface are the unique properly embedded maximal surfaces bounded by a lightlike regular arc of mirror symmetry.

Marginally trapped surfaces in Minkowski 4-space, which are invariant under a spacelike rotation, are classified based on the properties of their profile curves and the existence of such surfaces with prescribed Gaussian curvature is shown. A procedure is presented to glue several of these surfaces with intermediate parts where the mean curvature vector field vanishes.
متن کامل$L_k$-biharmonic spacelike hypersurfaces in Minkowski $4$-space $mathbb{E}_1^4$
Biharmonic surfaces in Euclidean space $mathbb{E}^3$ are firstly studied from a differential geometric point of view by Bang-Yen Chen, who showed that the only biharmonic surfaces are minimal ones. A surface $x : M^2rightarrowmathbb{E}^{3}$ is called biharmonic if $Delta^2x=0$, where $Delta$ is the Laplace operator of $M^2$. We study the $L_k$-biharmonic spacelike hypersurfaces in the $4$-dimen...
متن کاملA Family of Maximal Surfaces in Lorentz-minkowski Three-space
We prove the existence of an infinite family of complete spacelike maximal surfaces with singularities in Lorentz-Minkowski three-space and study their properties. These surfaces are distinguished by their number of handles and have two elliptic catenoidal ends.
