Complete stationary surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^4_1$ with total curvature $-\int K\mathrm{d}M=4π$

Abstract

Applying the general theory about complete spacelike stationary (i.e. zero mean curvature) surfaces in 4-dimensional Lorentz space $\mathbb{R}^4_1$, we classify those regular algebraic ones with total Gaussian curvature $-\int K\mathrm{d}M=4π$. Such surfaces must be oriented and be congruent to either the generalized catenoids or the generalized enneper surfaces. For non-orientable stationary surfaces, we consider the Weierstrass representation on the oriented double covering $\widetilde{M}$ (of genus $g$) and generalize Meeks and Oliveira's Möbius bands. The total Gaussian curvature are shown to be at least $2π(g+3)$ when $\widetilde{M}\to\mathbb{R}^4_1$ is algebraic-type. We conjecture that there do not exist non-algebraic examples with $-\int K\mathrm{d}M=4π$.
