Space-like Weingarten surfaces in the three-dimensional Minkowski space and their natural partial differential equations

Georgi Ganchev, Vesselka Mihova (2013)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

On any space-like Weingarten 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 natural non-linear partial differential equation. This result can be interpreted as a solution to the Lund-Regge reduction problem for space-like Weingarten surfaces in Minkowski space. We apply this theory to linear fractional space-like Weingarten...

The PDE describing constant mean curvature surfaces

Hongyou Wu (2001)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

We give an expository account of a Weierstrass type representation of the non-zero constant mean curvature surfaces in space and discuss the meaning of the representation from the point of view of partial differential equations.
