Abstract

This paper studies a smooth one-parameter family of standard Lorentzian circles with fixed radius. Such a surface is called a timelike circular surface with constant radius. We call each circle a generating circle. A new type of timelike circular surfaces was identified and coined as the timelike tangent circular surface. The new timelike tangent circular surface has the property of all generating circles being lines of curvature and its Gaussian and mean curvatures being independent of the geodesic curvature of the spherical indicatrix.
