چکیده

‎In this paper‎, ‎we prove that any surface corresponding to linear second-order ODEs‎ ‎as a submanifold is minimal in the class of third-order ODEs $y'''=f(x‎, ‎y‎, ‎p‎, ‎q)$ as a Riemannian manifold‎ ‎where $y'=p$ and $y''=q$‎, ‎if and only if $q_{yy}=0$‎.‎Moreover‎, ‎we will see the linear second-order ODE with general form $y''=\pm y+\beta(x)$ is the only case that is defined a minimal surface‎ ‎and is also totally geodesic‎.
