Completeness of convex entire surfaces in Minkowski 3-space

Abstract: We prove four results towards a description, in terms of the null support function, of the set of isometric embeddings of the hyperbolic plane into Minkowski 3-space. We show that for sufficiently tame null support function, the corresponding entire surface of constant curvature -1 is complete, and for sufficiently sharp null support function, it is incomplete. Our results apply also to entire surfaces whose curvature is merely bounded.
