Abstract

In this paper, we study spacelike maximal and timelike minimal surfaces of revolution by using any planar spacelike and timelike profile curve in Minkowski 3-space and obtain various differential equations which characterize the profile curve of such surfaces. Also we gave some examples of spacelike maximal and timelike minimal surfaces of revolution.

This paper studies various ordinary differential equations that characterize space-like constant mean curvature surfaces of revolution in Minkowski 3-space. These differential equations are nonlinear and cannot be solved explicitly. Using numerical methods such as Runge-Kutta’s or Euler’s methods, we solve those differential equations and obtain examples of space-like constant mean curvature surfaces of revolution in Minkowski 3-space.

We prove the existence of maximal surfaces in asymptotically flat spacetime satisfying an interior condition. This uses a priori estimates which can also be applied to prescribed mean curvature surfaces in cosmological spacetimes and the Dirichlet problem.
