Abstract

Mathematics Physical Sciences Science & Technology
In this paper, we study the surfaces foliated by ellipses in three dimensional Euclidean space E-3. We prove the following results: (1) The surface foliated by an ellipse have constant Gaussian curvature K if and only if the surface is flat, i.e. K = 0. (2) The surface foliated by an ellipse is a flat if and only if it is a part of generalized cylinder or part of generalized cone.
