Abstract

A Lorentzian surface in a four-dimensional manifold of neutral signature is called super-extremal if its reflector lift is horizontal. We give an elementary proof of a rigidity theorem for super-extremal surfaces in the space of constant curvature and neutral signature. As corollary, a characterization of the immersion of the Veronese type is given.
