Abstract For Legendre curves, we consider surfaces of revolution of frontals. The surface of revolution of a frontal can be considered as a framed base surface. We give the curvatures and basic invariants for surfaces of revolution by using the curvatures of Legendre curves. Moreover, we give properties of surfaces of revolution with singularities and cones.

1 Introduction The surface of revolution is one of classical object in differential geometry (cf. Gray et al. 2006; Kenmotsu 1980, 2003; Martins et al. 2019). It has been known that if the profile curve (the plane curve) crosses the axis of revolution, then the surface of revolution has cone-type singularity. On the other hand, if the profile curve is not regular, then the surface of revolution must have singularities. In Kenmotsu (1980, 2003), surfaces of revolution of regular curves are investigated. Especially, Kenmotsu gave concrete construction of the surface of revolution with prescribed mean curvature. In (Martins et al. 2019), the surfaces of revolution of

singular curves are investigated. They construct singular surface of revolution with prescribed (unbounded) mean curvature. In this paper, we consider more general situation. We consider frontals (Legendre curves) as singular plane curves and framed base surfaces (framed surfaces) as singular surfaces. In Fukunaga and Takahashi (2013), the authors give the curvature of Legendre curves in order to analyze Legendre curves. In Fukunaga and Takahashi (2019), the authors give the basic invariants of framed surfaces so as to analyze framed surfaces. In Sect. 2, we review the theories of Legendre curves in the unit tangent bundle over the Euclidean plane R2 and framed surfaces in the Euclidean space R3 . The surface of revolution of a frontal is a framed base surface. We can deal with surfaces of revolution with singular points more directly. In fact, we give the curvatures and basic invariants for surfaces of revolution by using the curvatures of Legendre curves in §3. Moreover, we give profile curves for given information of the curvatures, for instance, the Gauss curvature or the
