Space-Like Surfaces in the Minkowski Space with Pointwise 1-Type Gauss Maps

  • Published:
Ukrainian Mathematical Journal Aims and scope

We first classify space-like surfaces in the Minkowski space , de Sitter space , and hyperbolic space ℍ3 with harmonic Gauss maps. Then we characterize and present a classification of the space-like surfaces with pointwise 1-type Gauss maps of the first kind. We also give some explicit examples.
