In this note we give a criterion for the existence of a fractional-linear integral for a geodesic flow on a Riemannian surface and explain that modulo M\"obius transformations the moduli space of such local integrals (if nonempty) is either…
We uncover some connections between the topology of a complete Riemannian surface M and the minimum number of vertices, i.e., critical points of geodesic curvature, of closed curves in M. In particular we show that the space forms with…

A Riemannian geometry of noncommutative n-dimensional surfaces is developed as a first step towards the construction of a consistent noncommutative gravitational theory. Historically, as well, Riemannian geometry was recognized to be the…

If a catenoid is inverted in any interior point, a deflated compact geometry is obtained which touches at two points (its poles). The catenoid is a minimal surface and, as such, is an equilibrium shape of a symmetric fluid membrane. The…
We give a spinorial characterization of isometrically immersed surfaces of arbitrary signature into 3-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian space forms. For Lorentzian surfaces, this generalizes a recent work of the first author in…
The family of embedded, singly periodic minimal surfaces of Riemann have as limit-surfaces the helicoid, the catenoid, a single plane, or an infinite set of equally-spaced parallel planes.
We classify all rotational surfaces in Euclidean space whose principal curvatures $\kappa_1$ and $\kappa_2$ satisfy the linear relation $\kappa_1=a\kappa_2+b$, where $a$ and $b$ are two constants. We give a variational characterization of…
