    A depth surface of E^3 is a range image observed from a single view can be represented by a digital graph (Monge patch) surface . That is, a depth or range value at a point (u,v) is given by a single valued function z=f(u,v). In the present study we consider the surfaces in Euclidean 4-space E^4 given with a Monge patch z=f(u,v),w=g(u,v). We investigated the curvature properties of these surfaces. We also give some special examples of these surfaces which are first defined by Yu. Aminov. Finally, we proved that every Aminov surface is a non-trivial Chen surface.Comment: 1

    Cyclic and ruled Lagrangian surfaces in complex Euclidean space

    Full text link
    We study those Lagrangian surfaces in complex Euclidean space which are foliated by circles or by straight lines. The former, which we call cyclic, come in three types, each one being described by means of, respectively, a planar curve, a Legendrian curve of the 3-sphere or a Legendrian curve of the anti de Sitter 3-space. We also describe ruled Lagrangian surfaces. Finally we characterize those cyclic and ruled Lagrangian surfaces which are solutions to the self-similar equation of the Mean Curvature Flow. Finally, we give a partial result in the case of Hamiltonian stationary cyclic surfaces
