Timelike rotational surfaces of elliptic, hyperbolic and parabolic types in Minkowski space E_1^4 with pointwise 1-type Gauss map

Abstract

In this work, we focus on class of timelike rotational surfaces in Minkowski space E_1^4 with 2-dimensional axis. There are three types of rotational surfaces with 2-dimensional axis, called rotational surfaces of elliptic, hyperbolic and parabolic type. We obtain all flat timelike rotational surface of elliptic, hyperbolic and parabolic types with pointwise 1-type Gauss map with first kind and second kind. We also prove that there exists no flat timelike rotational surface of parabolic type in E_1^4 with pointwise 1-type Gauss map.
