Helicoidal surfaces in Minkowski space with constant mean curvature and constant Gauss curvature

Rafael López, Esma Demir (2014)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

We classify all helicoidal non-degenerate surfaces in Minkowski space with constant mean curvature whose generating curve is a the graph of a polynomial or a Lorentzian circle. In the first case, we prove that the degree of the polynomial is 0 or 1 and that the surface is ruled. If the generating curve is a Lorentzian circle, we prove that the only possibility is that the axis is spacelike and the center of the circle lies on the axis.

Timelike Christoffel pairs in the split-quaternions

M. P. Dussan, M. Magid (2010)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We characterize the Christoffel pairs of timelike isothermic surfaces in the four-dimensional split-quaternions. When restricting the receiving space to the three-dimensional imaginary split-quaternions, we establish an equivalent condition for a timelike surface in ℝ³₂ to be real or complex isothermic in terms of the existence of integrating factors.
