MERIDIAN SURFACES OF WEINGARTEN TYPE IN 4-DIMENSIONAL EUCLIDEAN SPACE E4

Abstract

In this paper, we study meridian surfaces of Weingarten type in Euclidean 4-space E4. We give the necessary and sucient conditions for a meridian surface in E4 to become Weingarten type.

Keywords

• meridian surface,Weingarten surface,second fundamental form
