On timelike surfaces in Lorentzian manifolds
We discuss the geometry of timelike surfaces (two-dimensional submanifolds) in a Lorentzian manifold and its interpretation in terms of general relativity. A classification of such surfaces is presented which distinguishes four cases of special algebraic properties of the second fundamental form from the generic case. In the physical interpretation a timelike surface Σ can be viewed as the worl...
متن کاملSpacelike Willmore surfaces in 4-dimensional Lorentzian space forms
Spacelike Willmore surfaces in 4-dimensional Lorentzian space forms, a topic in Lorentzian conformal geometry which parallels the theory of Willmore surfaces in S, are studied in this paper. We define two kinds of transforms for such a surface, which produce the so-called left/right polar surfaces and the adjoint surfaces. These new surfaces are again conformal Willmore surfaces. For them holds...
متن کاملNull helices in Lorentzian space forms
In this paper we introduce a reference along a null curve in an n-dimensional Lorentzian space with the minimun number of curvatures. That reference generalizes the reference of Bonnor for null curves in Minkowski space-time and it is called the Cartan frame of the curve. The associated curvature functions are called the Cartan curvatures of the curve. We characterize the null helices (that is,...
متن کاملBlaschke ’ s problem for timelike surfaces in pseudo - Riemannian space forms
We show that isothermic surfaces and S-Willmore surfaces are also the solutions to the corresponding Blaschke’s problem for both spacelike and timelike surfaces in pseudoRiemannian space forms. For timelike surfaces both Willmore and isothermic, we obtain a description by minimal surfaces similar to the classical results of Thomsen.
متن کاملSpacelike hypersurfaces in Riemannian or Lorentzian space forms satisfying L_k(x)=Ax+b
We study connected orientable spacelike hypersurfaces $x:M^{n}rightarrowM_q^{n+1}(c)$, isometrically immersed into the Riemannian or Lorentzian space form of curvature $c=-1,0,1$, and index $q=0,1$, satisfying the condition $~L_kx=Ax+b$,~ where $L_k$ is the $textit{linearized operator}$ of the $(k+1)$-th mean curvature $H_{k+1}$ of the hypersurface for a fixed integer $0leq k
