On totally umbilical and minimal surfaces of the Lorentzian Heisenberg groups

This paper has manifold purposes. We first introduce a description of the Gauss map for submanifolds (both spacelike and timelike) of a Lorentzian ambient space and relate the conformality of the Gauss map of a surface to total umbilicity and minimality. We then focus on surfaces of the three-dimens...
