We show that all non-developable ruled surfaces endowed with Ricci metrics in the three-dimensional Euclidean space may be constructed using curves of constant torsion and its binormal. This allows us to give characterizations of the…
In the present paper, we propose a new discrete surface theory on 3-valent embedded graphs in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space which are not necessarily discretization or approximation of smooth surfaces. The Gauss curvature and the mean…
