A spacelike surface in Minkowski space $\mathbb{R}_1^3$ is called a $K^α$-translator of the flow by the powers of Gauss curvature if satisfies $K^α= \langle N,\vec{v}\rangle$, $α\neq 0$, where $K$ is the Gauss curvature, $N$ is the unit normal vector field and $\vec{v}$ is a direction of $\mathbb{R}_1^3$. In this paper, we classify all rotational $K^α$-translators. This classification will depend on the causal character of the rotation axis. Although the theory of the $K^α$-flow holds for spacelike surfaces, the equation describing $K^α$-translators is still valid for timelike surfaces. So we also investigate the timelike rotational surfaces that satisfy the same prescribing Gauss curvature equation.
In this paper, we obtain the classification theorem for three-dimensional complete space-like $λ$-translators $x:M^{3} \rightarrow \mathbb R^{4}_{1}$ with constant norm of the second fundamental form and constant $f_{4}$ in the Minkowski space $\mathbb R^{4}_{1}$.
The main result in this paper is a non-existence Theorem of entire $Q_{n-1}$-translators in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. In addition, an example of non-entire complete $Q_{n-1}$-translator has been found and a Tangential Principle for $Q_k$-translators in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$.
A $K^α$-translator is a surface in Euclidean space $\r^3$ that moves by translations in a spatial direction and under the $K^α$-flow, where $K$ is the Gauss curvature and $α$ is a constant. We classify all $K^α$-translators that are rotationally symmetric. In particular, we prove that for each $α$ there is a $K^α$-translator intersecting orthogonally the rotation axis. We also describe all $K^α$-translators invariant by a uniparametric group of helicoidal motions and the translators obtained by separation of variables.
Analogous to the bowl soliton of mean curvature flow, we construct rotationally symmetric translating solutions to a very large class of extrinsic curvature flows, namely those whose speeds are $α$-homogeneous ($α>0$), elliptic and symmetric with respect to the principal curvatures. We show that these solutions are necessarily convex, and give precise criteria for the speed functions which determine whether these translators are defined on all of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ or contained in a cylinder. For speeds that are nonzero when at least one of the principal curvatures is nonzero, we are also able t…
We show that any strictly mean convex translator of dimension $n\geq 3$ which admits a cylindrical estimate and a corresponding gradient estimate is rotationally symmetric. As a consequence, we deduce that any translating solution of the mean curvature flow which arises as a blow-up limit of a two-convex mean curvature flow of compact immersed hypersurfaces of dimension $n\geq 3$ is rotationally symmetric. The proof is rather robust, and applies to a more general class of translator equations. As a particular application, we prove an analogous result for a class of flows of embedded hypersurfa…
We study rotational surfaces with constant Minkowski Gaussian curvature and rotational surfaces with constant Minkowski mean curvature in a $3$-dimensional normed space with rotationally symmetric norm. We have a generalization of the catenoid, pseudo-sphere and Delaunay surfaces.
We obtain isometric minimal helicoidal and rotational surfaces using generalized Bour's theorem in three dimensional Minkowski space. In addition, we show that the surfaces preserve minimality when their Gauss maps identically equal, choosing any diffentiable functions on the profile curve.
We study the behavior of geodesics on a Randers surface of revolution. The main tool is the extension of Clairaut relation from Riemannian case to the Randers case. Moreover, we show that our Randers surface of revolution can be embedded in a Minkowski space as hypersurface.
In this paper, we study on three kinds of spacelike helicoidal surfaces in Minkowski $4$--space. First, we give an isometry between such helicoidal surfaces and rotational surfaces which is a kind of generalization of Bour theorem in Minkowski $3$--space to Minkowski $4$--space. Then, we investigate geometric properties for such isometric surfaces having same Gauss map. By using these results, we give the parametrizations of isometric pair of surfaces. As a particular case, we examine the right helicoidal surfaces in view of Bour's theorem. Also, we present some examples by choosing the compon…
We investigate self-similar solutions to the inverse mean curvature flow in Euclidean space. In the case of one dimensional planar solitons, we explicitly classify all homothetic solitons and translators. Generalizing Andrews' theorem that circles are the only compact homothetic planar solitons, we apply the Hsiung-Minkowski integral formula to prove the rigidity of the hypersphere in the class of compact expanders of codimension one. We also establish that the moduli space of compact expanding surfaces of codimension two is big. Finally, we update the list of Huisken-Ilmanen's rotational expa…
We investigate the duality between minimal surfaces in Euclidean space and maximal surfaces in Lorentz-Minkowski space in the family of rotational surfaces. We study if the dual surfaces of two congruent rotational minimal (or maximal) surfaces are congruent. We show that in the duality process by means of a one-parameter group of rotations, it appears the family of Bonnet minimal (maximal) surfaces and the Goursat transformations.
In this work, we study some classes of rotational surfaces in the pseudo-Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^4_t$ with profile curves lying in 2-dimensional planes. First, we determine all such surfaces in the Minkowski 4-space $\mathbb{E}^4_1$ with pointwise 1-type Gauss map of the first kind and second kind. Then, we obtain rotational surfaces in $\mathbb{E}^4_2$ with zero mean curvature and having pointwise 1--type Gauss map of second kind.
In this paper, we study entire translating solutions $u(x)$ to a mean curvature flow equation in Minkowski space. We show that if $Σ=\{(x, u(x))| x\in\mathbb{R}^n\}$ is a strictly spacelike hypersurface, then $Σ$ reduces to a strictly convex rank k soliton in $\mathbb{R}^{k, 1}$ (after splitting off trivial factors) whose "blowdown" converges to a multiple $λ\in(0, 1)$ of a positively homogeneous degree one convex function in $\mathbb{R}^k$. We also show that there is nonuniqueness as the rotationally symmetric solution may be perturbed to a solution by an arbitrary smooth order one perturbati…
In the present paper we consider a special class of spacelike surfaces in the Minkowski 4-space which are one-parameter systems of meridians of the rotational hypersurface with timelike or spacelike axis. They are called meridian surfaces of elliptic or hyperbolic type, respectively. We study these surfaces with respect to their Gauss map. We find all meridian surfaces of elliptic or hyperbolic type with harmonic Gauss map and give the complete classification of meridian surfaces of elliptic or hyperbolic type with pointwise 1-type Gauss map.
In this article, we study spacelike and timelike rotational surfaces in a 3--dimensional de Sitter space $\mathbb{S}^3_1$ which are the orbit of a regular curve under the action of the orthogonal transformation of 4--dimensional Minkowski space $\mathbb{E}^4_1$ leaving a spacelike, a timelike or a degenerate plane pointwise fixed. We determine the profile curve of such Weingarten rotational surfaces parameterized by the principal curvature. Then, we classify spacelike and timelike Weingarten rotational surface in $\mathbb{S}^3_1$ with the principal curvatures $κ$ and $λ$ satisfying $κ=aλ+b$ or…
We construct a special class of spacelike surfaces in the Minkowski 4-space which are one-parameter systems of meridians of the rotational hypersurface with lightlike axis and call these surfaces meridian surfaces of parabolic type. They are analogous to the meridian surfaces of elliptic or hyperbolic type. Using the invariants of these surfaces we give the complete classification of the meridian surfaces of parabolic type with constant Gauss curvature or constant mean curvature. We also classify the Chen meridian surfaces of parabolic type and the meridian surfaces of parabolic type with para…
