A Formulation of L-Isothermic Surfaces in Three-Dimensional Minkowski Space

الملخص EN

The Cartan structure equations are used to study space-like and time-like isothermic surfaces in three-dimensional Minkowski space in a unified framework.

When the lines of curvature of a surface constitute an isothermal system, the surface is called isothermic.

This condition serves to define a system of one-forms such that, by means of the structure equations, the Gauss-Codazzi equations for the surface are determined explicitly.

A Lax pair can also be obtained from these one-forms for both cases, and, moreover, a nonhomogeneous Schrödinger equation can be associated with the set of space-like surfaces.
