Cyclic and ruled Lagrangian surfaces in Euclidean four space.

We study those Lagrangian surfaces in complex Euclidean space which are foliated by circles or by straight lines. The former, which we call cyclic, come in three types, each one being described by means of, respectively, a planar curve, a Legendrian curve in the 3-sphere or a Legendrian curve in the anti-de Sitter 3-space. We describe ruled Lagrangian surfaces and characterize the cyclic and ruled Lagrangian surfaces which are solutions to the self-similar equation of the Mean Curvature Flow. Finally, we give a partial result in the case of Hamiltonian stationary cyclic surfaces. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
