Generalized Riemann minimal surfaces examples in three-dimensional manifolds products
Abstract
Description
In this paper, we construct and classify minimal surfaces foliated by horizontal constant curvature curves in product manifolds $M \times \R$, where $M$ is the hyperbolic plane, the Euclidean plane or the two dimensional sphere. The main tool is the existence of a Jacobi field which characterize the property to be foliated in circles and geodesics in these product manifolds. It is related to harmonic maps.
