On generalized helicoidal minimal surfaces in Minkowski 5-space

Abstract

In this paper, we study two kinds of generalized helicoidal surfaces in Minkowski 5-space. We give the necessary and sufficient conditions for such surfaces to be a minimal surface, which are ordinary differential equations. We solve those equations explicitly and discuss the behavior of solutions.
