Lagrangian surfaces in complex Euclidean plane via spherical and hyperbolic curves

Abstract

We present a method to construct a large family of Lagrangian surfaces in complex Euclidean plane by using Legendre curves in the 3-sphere and in the anti de Sitter 3-space or, equivalently, by using spherical and hyperbolic curves, respectively. Among this family, we characterize minimal, constant mean curvature, Hamiltonian-minimal and Willmore surfaces in terms of simple properties of the curvature of the generating curves. As applications, we provide explicitly conformal parametrizations of known and new examples of minimal, constant mean curvature, Hamiltonian-minimal and Willmore surfaces in complex Euclidean plane.
