Meridian Surfaces with Parallel Normalized Mean Curvature Vector Field in Pseudo-Euclidean 4-space with Neutral Metric

We construct a special class of Lorentz surfaces in the pseudo-Euclidean 4-space with neutral metric which are one-parameter systems of meridians of rotational hypersurfaces with timelike or spacelike axis and call them meridian surfaces. We give the complete classification of the meridian surfaces with parallel mean curvature vector field. We also classify the meridian surfaces with parallel normalized mean curvature vector. We show that in the family of the meridian surfaces there exist Lorentz surfaces which have parallel normalized mean curvature vector field but not parallel mean curvature vector.

Meridian Surfaces with Constant Mean Curvature in Pseudo-Euclidean 4-space with Neutral Metric

In the present paper we consider a special class of Lorentz surfaces in the four-dimensional pseudo-Euclidean space with neutral metric which are one-parameter systems of meridians of rotational hypersurfaces with timelike or spacelike axis and call them meridian surfaces. We give the complete classification of minimal and quasi-minimal meridian surfaces. We also classify the meridian surfaces with non-zero constant mean curvature.

On Generalized Spherical Surfaces in Euclidean Spaces

In the present study we consider the generalized rotational surfaces in Euclidean spaces. Firstly, we consider generalized spherical curves in Euclidean $(n+1)-$space $\mathbb{E}^{n+1}$. Further, we introduce some kind of generalized spherical surfaces in Euclidean spaces $\mathbb{E}^{3}$ and $% \mathbb{E}^{4}$ respectively. We have shown that the generalized spherical surfaces of first kind in $\mathbb{E}^{4}$ are known as rotational surfaces, and the second kind generalized spherical surfaces are known as meridian surfaces in $\mathbb{E}^{4}$. We have also calculated the Gaussian, normal and mean curvatures of these kind of surfaces. Finally, we give some examples.

Meridian Surfaces in E^4 with Pointwise 1-type Gauss Map

In the present article we study a special class of surfaces in the four-dimensional Euclidean space, which are one-parameter systems of meridians of the standard rotational hypersurface. They are called meridian surfaces. We show that a meridian surface has a harmonic Gauss map if and only if it is part of a plane. Further, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a meridian surface to have pointwise 1-type Gauss map and find all meridian surfaces with pointwise 1-type Gauss map.

Surfaces given with the Monge patch in E^4

A depth surface of E^3 is a range image observed from a single view can be represented by a digital graph (Monge patch) surface . That is, a depth or range value at a point (u,v) is given by a single valued function z=f(u,v). In the present study we consider the surfaces in Euclidean 4-space E^4 given with a Monge patch z=f(u,v),w=g(u,v). We investigated the curvature properties of these surfaces. We also give some special examples of these surfaces which are first defined by Yu. Aminov. Finally, we proved that every Aminov surface is a non-trivial Chen surface.

Semiparalel Wintgen Ideal Surfaces in E^n

Wintgen ideal surfaces in E^4 form an important family of surfaces, namely surfaces with circular ellipse of curvature. Obviously, Wintgen ideal surfaces satisfy the pointwise equality K+K_N=H^2. In the present study we consider the Wintgen ideal surfaces in n-dimensional Euclidean space E^4. We have shown that Wintgen ideal surfaces in E^n satisfying the semiparallelity condition R(X,Y)h=0 are totally umbilical. Further, we obtain some results in E^4.

Focal Representation of k-slant Helices in E^{m+1}

A focal representation of a generic regular curve γ in E^{m+1} consists of the centers of the osculating hyperplanes. A k-slant helix γ in E^{m+1} is a (generic) regular curve whose unit normal vector V_{k} makes a constant angle with a fixed direction U in E^{m+1}. In the present paper we proved that if γ is a k-slant helix in E^{m+1}, then the focal representation C_{γ} of γ in E^{m+1} is a (m-k+2)-slant helix in E^{m+1}.
