Complete Linear Weingarten Surfaces of Bryant Type. a Plateau Problem at Infinity

چکیده
In this paper we study a large class of Weingarten surfaces which includes the constant mean curvature one surfaces and flat surfaces in the hyperbolic 3-space. We show that these surfaces can be parametrized by holomorphic data like minimal surfaces in the Euclidean 3-space and we use it to study their completeness. We also establish some existence and uniqueness theorems by studing the Plateau problem at infinity: when is a given curve on the ideal boundary the asymptotic boundary of a complete surface in our family? and, how many embedded solutions are there?

Rotational linear Weingarten surfaces of hyperbolic type
A linear Weingarten surface in Euclidean space R 3 is a surface whose mean curvature H and Gaussian curvature K satisfy a relation of the form aH + bK = c, where a, b, c ∈ R. Such a surface is said to be hyperbolic when a + 4bc < 0. In this paper we classify all rotational linear Weingarten surfaces of hyperbolic type. As a consequence, we obtain a family of complete hyperbolic linear Weingarte...
متن کاملDiscrete Flat Surfaces and Linear Weingarten Surfaces in Hyperbolic 3-space
We define discrete flat surfaces in hyperbolic 3-space H from the perspective of discrete integrable systems and prove properties that justify the definition. We show how these surfaces correspond to previously defined discrete constant mean curvature 1 surfaces in H, and we also describe discrete focal surfaces (discrete caustics) that can be used to define singularities on discrete flat surfa...
متن کاملLinear Weingarten surfaces in Euclidean and hyperbolic space
In this paper we review some author’s results about Weingarten surfaces in Euclidean space R 3 and hyperbolic space H 3 . We stress here in the search of examples of linear Weingarten surfaces that satisfy a certain geometric property. First, we consider Weingarten surfaces in R 3 that are foliated by circles, proving that the surface is rotational, a Riemann example or a generalized cone. Next...
متن کاملA Weierstrass representation for linear Weingarten spacelike surfaces of maximal type in the Lorentz–Minkowski space
In this work we extend the Weierstrass representation for maximal spacelike surfaces in the 3-dimensional Lorentz–Minkowski space to spacelike surfaces whose mean curvature is proportional to its Gaussian curvature (linear Weingarten surfaces of maximal type). We use this representation in order to study the Gaussian curvature and the Gauss map of such surfaces when the immersion is complete, p...
متن کاملLinear Weingarten hypersurfaces in a unit sphere
In this paper, by modifying Cheng-Yau$'$s technique to complete hypersurfaces in $S^{n+1}(1)$, we prove a rigidity theorem under the hypothesis of the mean curvature and the normalized scalar curvature being linearly related which improve the result of [H. Li, Hypersurfaces with constant scalar curvature in space forms, {em Math. Ann.} {305} (1996), 665--672].
