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…

This is a translation from Latin of E348 'Methodus facilis motus corporum coelestium utcunque perturbatos ad rationem calculi astronomici revocandi', in which Euler develops a method to alleviate the astronomical computations in a typical…

We provide some historical context to the study of solid angles carried out by Euler in his memoir \emph{De mensura angulorum solidorum} (On the measure of solid angles). We extend our study to the general notion of angle (not only solid).…

Let $S$ be a complete flat surface, such as the Euclidean plane. We obtain direct characterizations of the connected components of the space of all curves on $S$ which start and end at given points in given directions, and whose curvatures…

In this paper we settle the computational complexity of two open problems related to the extension of the notion of level planarity to surfaces different from the plane. Namely, we show that the problems of testing the existence of a level…

The paper presents a reformulation of some of the most basic entities and equations of linear elasticity - the stress and strain tensor, the Cauchy Navier equilibrium equations, material equations for linear isotropic bodies - in a modern…

Hodograph equations for the Euler equation in curved spaces with constant pressure are discussed. It is shown that the use of known results concerning geodesics and associated integrals allows to construct several types of hodograph…

Consider a smooth complex surface $X$ which is a double cover of the projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$ branched along a smooth curve of degree $2s$. In this article, we study the geometric conditions which are equivalent to the existence of…

A line field on a manifold is a smooth map which assigns a tangent line to all but a finite number of points of the manifold. As such, it can be seen as a generalization of vector fields. They model a number of geometric and physical…

We study surfaces in Euclidean space constructed by the sum of two curves or that are graphs of the product of two functions. We consider the problem to determine all these surfaces with constant Gauss curvature. We extend the results to…

This work provides a curve-based approach to Ulrich bundles on surfaces, establishing a correspondence that characterizes their existence, with a focus on applications to surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$.

Surfaces of revolution in three-dimensional Euclidean space are considered. Several new examples of surfaces of revolution associated with well-known solvable cases of the Schoedinger equation (infinite well, harmonic oscillator, Coulomb…

An orientation preserving diffeomorphism over a surface embedded in a 4-manifold is called extendable, if this diffeomorphism is a restriction of an orientation preserving diffeomorphism on this 4-manifold. In this paper, we investigate…

We study the Euler class of smooth orientable infinite-type surface bundles with a section. For many such surfaces, we show that this cohomology class is nontrivial, and that the behavior of its powers depends on the genus and the type of…

We revisit Allendoerfer-Weil's formula for the Euler characteristic of embedded hypersurfaces in constant sectional curvature manifolds, first taking some time to re-prove it while demonstrating techniques of [2] and then applying it to…

This paper surveys and gives a uniform exposition of results contained in papers published by the team of authors. The subject is degenerations of surfaces, especially to unions of planes. More specifically, we deduce some properties of the…

Inspired by the concept of evolutoids of planar curves, we present the concept of evolutoids for regular surfaces as an envelope of a two-parameter family of lines in Euclidean 3-space. We give an explicit parametrization for such…

We introduce orbifolds from the classical point of view, using charts, and present orbifold versions of elementary objects from Algebraic Topology, such as the fundamental group, coverings and Euler characteristic; Differential…

A simple and efficient algorithm to numerically compute the genus of surfaces of three-dimensional objects using the Euler characteristic formula is presented. The algorithm applies to objects obtained by thresholding a scalar field in a…

This paper, along with E592 and E636, seems to consider the binomial expansion (1+z)^n in the case where z is complex. Euler even gives the sums of divergent series. The paper is translated from Euler's Latin original into German.
