GAUSS AND CODAZZI-MAINARDI FORMULAE
Abstract
In this paper we have defined e, sign functions using the vector fields XII' Xv' nil and nv which have taken derivatives with (u,v) parameters of tangent vector X of any surface in Lorentz space and we obtain Gauss and Codazzi-Mainardi Gauss formulae of the surface.
