Abstract: | We consider 3-dimensional conformally flat hypersurfaces of E4 with 2 different principal curvatures such that the coordinate directions are principal directions. We describe explicitly those which allow an immersion with constant mean curvature. They are shown to be in close correspondence with solutions of the nonlinear integrable sine-Gordon and sinh-Gordon equations. Conversely, this provides a geometrical characterization for this particular class of conformally flat hypersurfaces of E4. |
