Surfaces of coordinate finite II-type
In this article, we study the class of surfaces of revolution in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space $E^{3}$ with nonvanishing Gauss curvature whose position vector $\boldsymbol{x}$ satisfies the condition $\Delta^{II}\boldsymbol{x}=A\boldsymbol{x}$, where $A$ is a square matrix of order 3 and $\Delta^{II}$ denotes the Laplace operator of the second fundamental form $II$ of the surface. We show that a surface of revolution satisfying the preceding relation is a catenoid or part of a sphere.
