Timelike Factorable Surfaces in Minkowski Space-Time

In this study, we discuss timelike factorable surfaces in Minkowski 4-space E_1^4. We calculate Gaussian and mean curvatures of these surfaces and classify timelike flat and minimal factorable surfaces in Minkowski space-time.

Keywords:

factorable surface, timelike surface Minkowski 4-space,
