We show that any star-shaped convex hypersurface with constant Weingarten curvature in the deSitter-Schwarzschild manifold is a sphere of symmetry. Moreover, we study an isoperimetric problem for bounded domains in the doubled Schwarzschild…
In this paper we characterize a function defined on the set of edges of a triangulated surface such that there is a spherical angle structure having the function as the edge invariant (or Delaunay invariant). We also characterize a function…
In this paper we characterize concircular helices in $R^3$ by means of a differential equation involving their curvature and torsion. We find a full description of concircular surfaces in $R^3$ as a special family of ruled surfaces, and we…
The paper presents an analog of the old result by the author and V. Voevodsky, according to which a Riemann surface admits a conformal structure, defined by an equilateral triangulation, if and only if the corresponding algebraic curve can…
We give a comprehensive account of zero mean curvature surfaces in isotropic 3-space with planar curvature lines. After giving a complete classification all such surfaces, we show that they belong to a 1-parameter family of surfaces. We…
We investigate three-dimensional surfaces where the normal vector forms a constant angle with the radius vector. These surfaces naturally extend equiangular (logarithmic) spirals in the plane.
We introduce a class of surfaces in euclidean space motivated by a problem posed by \'{E}lie Cartan. This class furnishes what seems to be the first examples of pairs of non-congruent surfaces in euclidean space such that, under a…
Cone spherical surfaces are orientable Riemannian surfaces with constant curvature one and a finite set of conical singularities. A subset of these surfaces, referred to as dihedral surfaces, is characterized by their monodromy groups,…
Minimal surfaces of general type in Euclidean 4-space are characterized with the conditions that the ellipse of curvature at any point is centered at this point and has two different principal axes. Any minimal surface of general type…
We prove the existence of nontrivial closed surfaces with constant anisotropic mean curvature with respect to elliptic integrands in closed smooth $3$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. The constructed min-max surfaces are smooth with at…
We study surfaces with parallel normalized mean curvature vector field in Euclidean or Minkowski 4-space. On any such surface we introduce special isothermal parameters (canonical parameters) and describe these surfaces in terms of three…
An interesting problem in classical differential geometry is to find methods to prove that two surfaces defined by different charts actually coincide up to position in space. In a previous paper we proposed a method in this direction for…
A diagonal metric sum_{i=1}^n g_{ii} dx_i^2 is termed Guichard_k if sum_{i=1}^{n-k}g_{ii}-sum_{i=n-k+1}^n g_{ii}=0. A hypersurface in R^{n+1} is isothermic_k if it admits line of curvature co-ordinates such that its induced metric is…
The geometry of closed surfaces equipped with a Euclidean metric with finitely many conical points of arbitrary angle is studied. The main result is that the image of a non-closed geodesic has 0 distance from the set of conical points.…
We consider skew ruled surfaces in the three-dimensional Euclidean space and some geometrically distinguished families of curves on them whose normal curvature has a concrete form. The aim of this paper is to find and classify all ruled…
Let $S$ be a smooth hypersurface properly embedded in $\mathbb R^N$ with $N \geq 3$ and consider its tubular neighborhood $\mathcal N$. We show that, if a heat flow over $\mathcal N$ with appropriate initial and boundary conditions has $S$…
The paper presents a generalized Weierstrass representation for pseudospherical surfaces in terms of 3x3 matrices, using moving frames and loop group decompositions. The construction of all such surfaces, starting from a given…
In classical surface theory there are but few known examples of surfaces admitting nontrivial isometric deformations and fewer still non-simply-connected ones. We consider the isometric deformability question for an immersion x: M \to R^3…
In this note, we use isothermic coordinate systems to explore global properties of space-like surfaces with constant mean curvature in the Lorentz-Minkowski three-space.
A first-order transition is numerically found in a spherical surface model with skeletons, which are linked to each other at junctions. The shape of the triangulated surfaces is maintained by skeletons, which have a one-dimensional bending…
