In this paper we introduce the notion of special Weingarten surfaces of minimal type in S 3 . Applying equivariant geometry techniques we construct rotational examples and study the embedness problem for those special surfaces.

After nearly 50 years of research the Chern conjecture for isoparametric hypersurfaces in spheres is still an unsolved and important problem. Here we give a partial result for CMC hypersurfaces with constant Gauß–Kronecker curvature, mainly using a result given in [3] by Otsuki.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
