Lorentz Invariant Spacelike Surfaces Of Constant Mean Curvature In Anti-De Sitter 3-Space, Jamie Patrick Lambert

Master's Theses

In this thesis, I studied Lorentz invariant spacelike surfaces with constant mean curvature H = c in the anti-de Sitter 3-space H³₁(−c²) of constant curvature −c². In particular, I construct Lorentz invariant spacelike surfaces of constant mean curvature c and maximal Lorentz invariant spacelike surfaces in H³₁(−c²). I also studied the limit behavior of those constant mean curvature c surfaces in H³₁(−c²). It turns out that they approach a maximal catenoid in Minkowski 3-space E³₁ as c → …
