Surfaces of Revolution and Canal Surfaces with Generalized Cheng–Yau 1-Type Gauss Maps

In the present work, the notion of generalized Cheng–Yau 1-type Gauss map is proposed, which is similar to the idea of generalized 1-type Gauss maps. Based on this concept, the surfaces of revolution and the canal surfaces in the Euclidean three-space are classified. First of all, we show that the G...

description In the present work, the notion of generalized Cheng–Yau 1-type Gauss map is proposed, which is similar to the idea of generalized 1-type Gauss maps. Based on this concept, the surfaces of revolution and the canal surfaces in the Euclidean three-space are classified. First of all, we show that the Gauss map of any surfaces of revolution with a unit speed profile curve is of generalized Cheng–Yau 1-type. At the same time, an oriented canal surface has a generalized Cheng–Yau 1-type Gauss map if, and only if, it is an open part of a surface of revolution or a torus.
