We prove that the mean curvature of a smooth surface in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 2$, arises as the limit of a sequence of functions that are intrinsically related to the difference between an $n$- and $1$-dimensional fractional Laplacian of a…
The concept of catenary has been recently extended to the sphere and the hyperbolic plane by the second author [L\'opez, arXiv:2208.13694]. In this work, we define catenaries on any Riemannian surface. A catenary on a surface is a critical…
We consider a general theory of curvatures of discrete surfaces equipped with edgewise parallel Gauss images, and where mean and Gaussian curvatures of faces are derived from the faces' areas and mixed areas. Remarkably these notions are…
Solving a long-standing open question in convex geometry, we will show that typical convex surfaces contain points of infinite curvature in all tangent directions. To prove this, we use an easy curvature definition imitating the idea of…
It is shown that existence of a global solution to a particular nonlinear system of second order partial differential equations on a complete connected Riemannian manifold has topological and geometric implications and that in the domain of…
We consider strictly convex hypersurfaces with the boundary which meets a strictly convex cone perpendicularly. We prove that if these hypersurfaces expand inside this cone, driven by the power of the Gauss curvature, then the evolution…
We elucidate the geometric background of function-theoretic properties for the Gauss maps of several classes of immersed surfaces in three-dimensional space forms, for example, minimal surfaces in Euclidean three-space, improper affine…
Total five different types of translation surfaces, based upon planarity of translating curves and the absolute figure, arise in a Galilean 3-space. Excepting the type in which both of translating curves are non-planar we obtain these…
The distance of an almost constant mean curvature boundary from a finite family of disjoint tangent balls with equal radii is quantitatively controlled in terms of the oscillation of the scalar mean curvature. This result allows one to…
This paper introduces and investigates a generalization of the notion of a pointed Riemannian manifold having its radial curvature bounded from above by that of a model surface of revolution.
An affine factorable surface of the second kind in the three dimensional pseudo-Galilean space G13 is studied depending on the invariant theory and theory of differential equation. The first and second fundamental forms, Gaussian curvature…
The present article deals with general mechanics in an unconventional manner. At first, Newtonian mechanics for a point particle has been described in vectorial picture, considering Cartesian, polar and tangent-normal formulations in a…
It was known that if the Gaussian curvature function along each meridian on a surface of revolution $(R^2, dr^2+m(r)^2d\theta^2)$ is decreasing, then the cut locus of each point of $\theta^{-1}(0)$ is empty or a subarc of the opposite…
We show that a capillary surface in a solid cone, that is, a surface that has constant mean curvature and the boundary of surface meets the boundary of the cone with a constant angle, is radially graphical if the mean curvature is…
Factorable surfaces, i.e. graphs associated with the product of two functions of one variable, constitute a wide class of surfaces. Such surfaces in the pseudo-Galilean space with zero Gaussian and mean curvature were obtained in [1]. In…
We consider geometric triangulations of surfaces, i.e., triangulations whose edges can be realized by disjoint locally geodesic segments. We prove that the flip graph of geometric triangulations with fixed vertices of a flat torus or a…
We study the generalized point-vortex problem and the Gross-Pitaevskii equation on surfaces of revolution. We find rotating periodic solutions to the generalized point-vortex problem, which have two two rings of $n$ equally spaced vortices…
The geometry of the rotating disk is revisited and the quantum consequences are discussed. A suggestion to detect the presence of the Gaussian curvature on the rotating disk only measuring transition frequencies is made. A quantum…
We investigate the geometric characteristics of constant gaussian curvature surfaces obtained from solutions of the $G(m,n)$ sigma model. Most of these solutions are related to the Veronese sequence. We show that we can distinguish surfaces…
The study of quadric surfaces of revolution is a cornerstone of classical Euclidean geometry, but its extension to the three-dimensional sphere $\mathbb{S}^3$ has not been sufficiently explored. This article addresses this important gap by…
