In this article, we study rotation surfaces in the 4-dimensional pseudo-Euclidean space E$_2$$^4$. Also, we obtain the complete classification theorems for the flat rotation surfaces with finite type Gauss map, pointwise 1-type Gauss map and an equation in terms of the mean curvature vector. In fact, we characterize the flat rotation surfaces of finite type immersion with the Gauss map and the mean curvature vector field, namely the Gauss map of finite type, pointwise 1-type Gauss map and some algebraic equations in terms of the Gauss map and the mean curvature vector field related to the Laplacian of the surfaces with respect to the induced metric.

In this article, we introduce the notion of pointwise 1-type Gauss map of the first and second kinds and study surfaces of revolution with such Gauss map. Our main results state that surfaces of revolution with pointwise 1-type Gauss map of the first kind coincide with surfaces of revolution with constant mean curvature; and the right cones are the only rational surfaces of revolution with pointwise 1-type Gauss map of the second kind.

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.

In the present article we study a special class of surfaces in the four-dimensional Euclidean space, which are one-parameter systems of meridians of the standard rotational hypersurface. They are called meridian surfaces. We show that a meridian surface has a harmonic Gauss map if and only if it is part of a plane. Further, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a meridian surface to have pointwise 1-type Gauss map and find all meridian surfaces with pointwise 1-type Gauss map.

We examine the relationship of the shape operator of a surface of Euclidean 3-space with its Gauss map of pointwise 1-type. Surfaces with constant mean curvature and right circular cones with respect to some properties of the shape operator are characterized when their Gauss map is of pointwise 1-type.

In this article, we study generalized slant cylindrical surfaces (GSCS's) with pointwise 1-type Gauss map of the first and second kinds. Our main results state that the right circular cones are the only rational kind GSCS's with pointwise 1-type Gauss map of the second kind.

In this paper, we study ruled surfaces in 3-dimensional Euclidean and Minkowski space in terms of their Gauss map. We obtain classification theorems for these type of surfaces whose Gauss map G satisfying ${\Box}G=f(G+C)$ for a constant vector $C{\in}{\mathbb{E}}^3$ and a smooth function f, where ${\Box}$ denotes the Cheng-Yau operator.

In this paper, we study surfaces of revolution in the three dimensional pseudo-Galilean space. We classify surfaces of revolution generated by a non-isotropic curve in terms of the Gauss map and the Laplacian of the surface. Furthermore, we give the classification of surfaces of revolution generated by an isotropic curve satisfying pointwise 1-type Gauss map equation.

In this paper, we study rotational and helicoidal surfaces in Euclidean 3-space in terms of their Gauss map. We obtain a complete classification of these type of surfaces whose Gauss maps G satisfy $L_1G=f(G+C)$ for some constant vector $C{\in}\mathbb{E}^3$ and smooth function $f$, where $L_1$ denotes the Cheng-Yau operator.
