Invariant surfaces of a three-dimensional manifold with constant Gauss curvature

We give a reduction procedure to determine (locally) the surfaces with constant Gauss curvature in a three-dimensional manifold which are invariant under the action of a one-parameter subgroup of the isometry group of the ambient space. We apply this procedure to describe the invariant surfaces with constant Gauss curvature in H-2 x R and in H-3 (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.55444044
