The main aim of this paper is to investigate Darboux rectifying curves on a smooth surface immersed in the Euclidean space. First, we discuss the component of the position vector of a Darboux rectifying curve on a smooth immersed surface…
The property of a surface being developable can be expressed in different equivalent ways, by vanishing Gauss curvature, or by the existence of isometric mappings to planar domains. Computational contributions to this topic range from…

New historical aspects of the classification, by Cayley and Cremona, of ruled quartic surfaces and the relation to string models and plaster models are presented. In a `modern' treatment of the classification of ruled quartic surfaces the…
We determine obstructedness or unobstructedness of (holomorphic) Poisson deformations of ruled surfaces over an elliptic curve.
We discuss notions of Gauss curvature and mean curvature for polyhedral surfaces. The discretizations are guided by the principle of preserving integral relations for curvatures, like the Gauss/Bonnet theorem and the mean-curvature force…

In this paper we study rotational surfaces in the space $\mathbb{H}^2\times\mathbb{R}$ whose mean curvature is given as a prescribed function of their angle function. These surfaces generalize, among others, the ones of constant mean…
For a surface in the 3-dimensional real projective space, we define a Gauss map, which is a quadric in $\mathbb R^{4}$ and called the first-order Gauss map. It will be shown that the surface is a Demoulin surface if and only if the…
At any point of a surface in the four-dimensional Euclidean space we consider the geometric configuration consisting of two figures: the tangent indicatrix, which is a conic in the tangent plane, and the normal curvature ellipse. We show…
Spacelike surfaces in the Lorentz-Minkowski space L^3 can be endowed with two different Riemannian metrics, the metric inherited from L^3 and the one induced by the Euclidean metric of R^3. It is well known that the only surfaces with zero…
Polyhedral surfaces are fundamental objects in architectural geometry and industrial design. Whereas closeness of a given mesh to a smooth reference surface and its suitability for numerical simulations were already studied extensively, the…
In this paper we consider developable surfaces which are isometric to planar domains and which are piecewise differentiable, exhibiting folds along curves. The paper revolves around the longstanding problem of existence of the so-called…

We study Lagrangian points on smooth holomorphic curves in T${\mathbb P}^1$ equipped with a natural neutral K\"ahler structure, and prove that they must form real curves. By virtue of the identification of T${\mathbb P}^1$ with the space…
A set of control points can determine a Bezier surface and a triangulated surface simultaneously. We prove that the triangulated surface becomes homeomorphic and ambient isotopic to the Bezier surface via subdivision. We also show that the…
