Abstract

In the present study we consider the generalized rotational surfaces in Euclidean spaces. Firstly, we consider generalized tractrices in Euclidean $ (n+1)$-space $\mathbb{E}^{n+1}$. Further, we introduce some kind of generalized rotational surfaces in Euclidean spaces $\mathbb{E}^{3}$ and $ \mathbb{E}^{4}$, respectively. We have also obtained some basic properties of generalized rotational surfaces in $\mathbb{E}^{4}$ and some results of their curvatures. Finally, we give some examples of generalized Beltrami surfaces in $\mathbb{E}^{3}$ and $\mathbb{E}^{4}$, respectively.

Keywords: generalized tractrix, Gaussian curvature, rotational surface, Beltrami surface
