It is interesting to transformation of variables, the light-like extremal surfaces can be described by a system Particularly, we investigate the light-like extremal surfaces in Schwarzschild spacetime in detail and some new special solutions are derived systematically with aim to compare with the known results and to illustrate the method.展开更多

We show that the light-like assumption is compatible with the Cauchy problem and give a necessary and sufficient condition on the global existence of classical solutions of the Cauchy problem. Based on this, we obtain entire light-like extremal surfaces by solving the Cauchy problem explicitly when such necessary and sufficient condition holds. Finally, some discussions and related remarks are given.展开更多
