We develop an invariant local theory of Lorentz surfaces in pseudo-Euclidean 4-space by use of a linear map of Weingarten type. We find a geometrically determined moving frame field at each point of the surface and obtain a system of…

Let $M^n$ be either a simply connected space form or a rank-one symmetric space of noncompact type. We consider Weingarten hypersurfaces of $M\times\mathbb R$, which are those whose principal curvatures $k_1,\dots ,k_n$ and angle function…

We describe how to approximate the Riemann curvature tensor as well as sectional curvatures on possibly infinite-dimensional shape spaces that can be thought of as Riemannian manifolds. To this end, we extend the variational time…

We show that on compact Riemann surfaces of negative curvature, the generalized periods, i.e. the $\nu$-th order Fourier coefficient of eigenfunctions $e_\lambda$ over a period geodesic $\gamma$ goes to 0 at the rate of…

The fundamental equations of Gauss, Codazzi and Ricci provide the conditions for local isometric embeddability. In general, the three fundamental equations are independent for surfaces in Riemannian 4-manifolds. In contrast, we prove in…

A classical theorem, mainly due to Aleksandrov and Pogorelov, states that any Riemannian metric on $S^2$ with curvature $K>-1$ is induced on a unique convex surface in $H^3$. A similar result holds with the induced metric replaced by the…
