This paper is devoted to presenting a new approach to determine the intersection of two quadrics based on the detailed analysis of its projection in the plane (the so called cutcurve) allowing to perform the corresponding lifting correctly.…
Multi-sided surfaces are often defined by side interpolants (also called ribbons), i.e. the surface has to connect to the ribbons with a prescribed degree of smoothness. The I-patch is such a family of implicit surfaces capable of…
We propose a novel method to generate a small set of ruled surfaces that do not collide with the input shape for linear hot-wire rough machining. Central to our technique is a new observation: the ruled surfaces constructed by vertical…
We describe a general approach for constructing a broad class of operators approximating high-dimensional curves based on geometric Hermite data. The geometric Hermite data consists of point samples and their associated tangent vectors of…
We classify the singular loci of real surfaces in three-space that contain two circles through each point. We characterize how a circle in such a surface meets this loci as it moves in its pencil and as such provide insight into the…
Marching surfaces is a method for isosurface extraction and approximation based on a $G^1$ multi-sided patch interpolation scheme. Given a 3D grid of scalar values, an underlying curve network is formed using second order information and…
We develop a circle of ideas involving pairs of lines in the plane, intersections of hyperbolically rotated elliptical cones and the locus of the centers of rectangles inscribed in lines in the plane.
We study the order of lengths of closed geodesics on hyperbolic surfaces. Our first main result is that the order of lengths of curves determine a point in Teichm\"uller space. In an opposite direction, we identify classes of curves whose…
In the first part of this article, we consider ruled surfaces defined over a finite field; we introduce invariants for them, and describe some explicit contructions that illustrate possible behaviour of these invariants. In the second part,…
These notes are designed for those who either plan to work in differential geometry, or at least want to have a good reason not to do it. We discuss smooth curves and surfaces -- the main gate to differential geometry. We focus on the…
Algebraic curve interpolation is described by specifying the location of N points in the plane and constructing an algebraic curve of a function f that should pass through them. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to construct the…
In this paper we use Groebner bases theory in order to determine planarity of intersections of two algebraic surfaces in ${\bf R}^3$. We specially considered plane sections of certain type of conoid which has a cubic egg curve as one of the…
Given a trivalent graph in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space, we call it a discrete surface because it has a tangent space at each vertex determined by its neighbor vertices. To abstract a continuum object hidden in the discrete surface, we…
One of the best things about geometry is that it's cool! Geometry enables us to create incredible designs and astounding patterns. This article shows how to use a simple technique (iteration) to create designs that are both cool and…
We present a general method for computing local parameterizations rooted at a point on a surface, where the surface is described only through a signed implicit function and a corresponding projection function. Using a two-stage process, we…
In this paper, we study a family of curves on $S^2$ that defines a two-dimensional smooth projective plane. We use curve shortening flow to prove that any two-dimensional smooth projective plane can be smoothly deformed through a family of…
The problem of construction of the surfaces with given sets of the points with horizontal tangential planes is considered. Such considerations are of interest in the problem of computer simulations of the waved ocean surfaces.
Several inequalities for the isoperimetric ratio for plane curves are derived. In particular, we obtain interpolation inequalities between the deviation of curvature and the isoperimetric ratio. As applications, we study the large-time…
We show that the detection of geometric intersection in an arbitrary representation of the mapping class group of surface implies the injectivity of that representation up to center, and vice versa. As an application, we discuss the…
In this study, we define the generalized normal ruled surface of a curve in the Euclidean 3-space $E^3$. We study the geometry of such surfaces by calculating the Gaussian and mean curvatures to determine when the surface is flat or minimal…
