Abstract
The generalized Gaussian image of a spacelike surface in $L^n$ lies in the indefinite positive quadric ${\mathbb{Q}}_+^{n-2}$ in the open submanifold ${\mathbb{C}}P_+^{n-1}$ of the complex projective space ${\mathbb{C}}P^{n-1}$. The purpose of this paper is to find out detailed information about ${\mathbb{Q}}_+^{n-2}{\subset}{\mathbb{C}}P_+^{n-1}$.
Keywords
