CHARACTERIZATION OF THE HELICOID AS RULED SURFACES WITH POINTWISE 1-TYPE GAUSS MAP

Open publisher page 78 citations

Abstract

We introduce the notion of Gauss map of pointwise 1-type on ruled surfaces in the Euclidean 3-space for which vector valued functions is neither trivial nor it extends or coincides with the usual notion of 1-type, in general. We characterize the minimal helicoid in terms of it and give a complete classification of the ruled surfaces with pointwise 1-type Gauss map.
