Abstract: Using the complex parabolic rotations of holomorphic null curves in ${mathbbC}^4$, we transform minimal surfaces in Euclidean space ${mathbbR}^{3}subset{mathbbR}^4$ to a family of degenerate minimal surfaces in Euclidean space ${mathbbR}^4$. Applying our deformation to holomorphic null curves in ${mathbbC}^{3}subset{mathbbC}^4$ induced by helicoids in ${mathbbR}^3$, we discover new minimal surfaces in ${mathbbR}^4$ foliated by conic sections with eccentricity grater than $1$: hyperbolas or straight lines. Applying our deformation to holomorphic null curves in ${mathbbC}^3$ induced by catenoids in ${mathbbR}^3$, we can rediscover the Hoffman-Osserman catenoids in ${mathbbR}^4$ foliated by conic sections with eccentricity smaller than $1$: ellipses or circles. We prove the existence of minimal surfaces in ${mathbbR}^4$ foliated by ellipses, which converge to circles at infinity. We construct minimal surfaces in ${mathbbR}^4$ foliated by parabolas: conic sections which have eccentricity $1$.
