Weingarten rotation surfaces in 3-dimensional de Sitter space (Q1879101): Difference between revisions

The paper considers the 3-dimensional de Sitter space \(S^3_1\) together with its natural embedding into 4-dimensional Minkowski space \(E^4_1\). A surface in \(S^3_1\) is called surface of revolution if it is the orbit of a curve with respect to Lorentz transformations on \(E^4_1\) that leave a plane pointwise fixed. The paper gives explicit representations for all time-like and space-like surfaces of revolution in \(S^3_1\) that are Weingarten surfaces, i.e., for which the principal curvatures are functionally dependent.
