Classification of surfaces in \(\mathbb{R}^ 3\) which are centroaffine-minimal and equiaffine-minimal (Q2365213)

For a surface \(M\) in \(\mathbb{R}^3\) with nondegenerate second fundamental form one can define an equiaffinely invariant metric \(g\) on \(M\) called Blaschke metric. If in addition the position vector \(x\) of the surface is always transversal to the tangent plane at \(x\), one can also define a centroaffinely invariant metric \(h\) on \(M\). The critical surfaces of the volume functional \(V_g\) of \(g\) are called equiaffine minimal surfaces and the critical surface of the volume functional \(V_h\) of \(h\) are called centroaffine minimal surfaces. In this paper, the author classifies all the surfaces in \(\mathbb{R}^3\) which are both equiaffine minimal and centroaffine minimal.
