We study translation surfaces in the Euclidean 3-space ��3 and the Gauss map N with respect to the so-called Cheng-Yau operator ☐. As a result, we prove that the only translation surfaces with Gauss map N satisfying ☐N = AN for some 3 × 3 matrix A are the flat ones. We also show that the only translation surfaces with Gauss map N satisfying ☐N = AN for some nonzero 3 × 3 matrix A are the cylindrical surfaces.

In this paper, we study surfaces in 3-dimensional Minkowski space in terms of certain type of their Gauss map. We give several results on these surfaces whose Gauss map G satisfies ${\square}G=f(G+C)$ for a smooth function f and a constant vector C, where ${\square}$ denotes the ChengYau operator. In particular, we obtain classification theorems on the rotational surfaces in ${\mathbb{E}}^3_1$ with space-like axis of rotation in terms of type of their Gauss map concerning the Cheng-Yau operator.

We study the Gauss map G of helicoidal surfaces in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space ${\mathbb{E}}^3$ with respect to the so called Cheng-Yau operator ${\square}$ acting on the functions defined on the surfaces. As a result, we completely classify the helicoidal surfaces with Gauss map G satisfying ${\square}G=AG$ for some $3{\times}3$ matrix A.

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.

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 have considered linear Weingarten hypersurfaces in a sphere and obtained some rigidity theorems. The purpose of this paper is to give some extension of the results due to Cheng-Yau [3] and Li [7].

In this manuscript, the hypersurfaces of non-flat Riemannian 4-space forms are considered. A hypersurface of a 4-dimensional Riemannian space form defined by an isometric immersion 𝐱 : M³ → 𝕄⁴(c) is said to be biconservative if it satisfies the equation (∆²𝐱 )^⊤ = 0, where ∆ is the Laplace operator on M³ and ⊤ stands for the tangent component of vectors. We study an extended version of biconservativity condition on the hypersurfaces of the Riemannian standard 4-space forms. The C-biconservativity condition is obtained by substituting the Cheng-Yau operator C instead of ∆. We prove that C-biconservative hypersurfaces of Riemannian 4-space forms (with some additional conditions) have constant scalar curvature.

We study the Gauss map G of ruled surfaces in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^3$ with respect to the so called Cheng-Yau operator ${\Box}$ acting on the functions defined on the surfaces. As a result, we establish the classification theorem that the only ruled surfaces with Gauss map G satisfying ${\Box}G=AG$ for some $3{\times}3$ matrix A are the flat ones. Furthermore, we show that the only ruled surfaces with Gauss map G satisfying ${\Box}G=AG$ for some nonzero $3{\times}3$ matrix A are the cylindrical surfaces.

In this paper, we study surfaces in $\mathb{E}^3$ whose Gauss map G satisfies the equation ${\Box}G=f(G+C)$ for a smooth function $f$ and a constant vector C, where ${\Box}$ stands for the Cheng-Yau operator. We focus on surfaces with constant Gaussian curvature, constant mean curvature and constant principal curvature with such a property. We obtain some classification and characterization theorems for these kinds of surfaces. Finally, we give a characterization of surfaces whose Gauss map G satisfies the equation ${\Box}G={\lambda}(G+C)$ for a constant ${\lambda}$ and a constant vector C.

In this manuscript, we handle a tubular surface whose Gauss map G satisfies the equality L₁G = f(G + C) for the Cheng-Yau operator L₁ in Galilean 3-space 𝔾₃. We give an example of a tubular surface having L₁-harmonic Gauss map. Moreover, we obtain a complete classification of tubular surface having L₁-pointwise 1-type Gauss map of the first kind in 𝔾₃ and we give some visualizations of this type surface.
