Geodesic Flow on the Normal Congruence of a Minimal Surface
Abstract
We study the geodesic flow on the normal line congruence of a minimal surface in R3 induced by the neutral K\"ahler metric on the space of oriented lines. The metric is lorentz with isolated degenerate points and the flow is shown to be completely integrable. In addition, we give a new holomorphic description of minimal surfaces in R3 and relate it to the classical Weierstrass representation.
