Nonorientable maximal surfaces in the Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space
The geometry and topology of complete nonorientable maximal surfaces with lightlike singularities in the Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space is studied. Some topological congruence formulae for surfaces of this kind are obtained. As a consequence, some existence and uniqueness results for maximal Möbius strips and maximal Klein bottles with one end are proved.
متن کاملA uniqueness result for maximal surfaces in Minkowski 3-space
In this paper, we study the Dirichlet problem associated to the maximal surface equation. We prove the uniqueness of bounded solutions to this problem in unbounded domain in R. Introduction We consider the Minkowski space-time L3 i.e. R3 with the following pseudoeuclidean metric 〈x, y〉 = x1y1 + x2y2 − x3y3. We define |x| 2 L = 〈x, x〉. A vector is said to be spacelike if |x|2 L > 0 and a surface...
متن کاملExperimental Evidence for Maximal Surfaces in a 3 Dimensional Minkowski Space
Conventional physical dogma, justified by the local success of Newtonian dynamics for particles, assigns a Euclidean metric with signature (plus, plus, plus) to the three spatial dimensions. Minimal surfaces are of zero mean curvature and negative Gauss curvature in a Euclidean space, which supports affine evolutionary processes. However, experimental evidence now indicates that the non-affine ...
متن کاملRuled W - Surfaces in Minkowski 3 - Space
In this paper, we study a spacelike (timelike) ruled W-surface in Minkowski 3-space which satisfies nontrivial relation between elements of the set {K, KII , H, HII}, where (K,H) and (KII , HII) are the Gaussian and mean curvatures of the first and second fundamental forms, respectively. Finally, some examples are constructed and plotted.
متن کاملCanonical Weierstrass Representation of Minimal and Maximal Surfaces in the Three-dimensional Minkowski Space
We prove that any minimal (maximal) strongly regular surface in the threedimensional Minkowski space locally admits canonical principal parameters. Using this result, we find a canonical representation of minimal strongly regular time-like surfaces, which makes more precise the Weierstrass representation and shows more precisely the correspondence between these surfaces and holomorphic function...
