We obtained a new representation for timelike Bertrand curves and their Bertrand mate in 3-dimensional Minkowski space. By using this representation, we expressed new representations of spherical indicatricies of Bertrand curves and computed their curvatures and torsions. Furthermore in case the indicatricies of a Bertrand curve are slant helices, we investigated some new characteristic features of these curves.

We show that any two disjoint crooked planes in [Formula: see text] are leaves of a crooked foliation. This answers a question asked by Charette and Kim [V. Charette and Y. Kim, Foliations of Minkowski [Formula: see text] spacetime by crooked planes, Int. J. Math. 25(9) (2014) 1450088.].

An explicit geometric picture about the complete integrability of the static axially symmetric self-dual Yang-Mills equation and the gravitational Ernst equation is presented. The corresponding soliton surfaces in adjoint space (3-dimensional Minkowski space) has negative variable curvature. The Riccati equation is also given, so that the integrability of the Bäcklund transformation gets the confirmation.

Many superstring models with N=1 supergravity in 4-dimensional Minkowski space-time involve σ-models with complex 3-dimensional, Ricci-flat target manifolds. In general, inclusion of singular target spaces probes the boundary of the moduli space and completes it. Studying suitably singular σ-models, the author found certain criteria for the severity of admissible singularizations.
