We deal with minimal surfaces in the unit sphere $S^3$, which are one-parameter families of circles. Minimal surfaces in $\R^3$ foliated by circles were first investigated by Riemann, and a hundred years later Lawson constructed examples of…

We investigate the relationship among characteristic curves on developable surfaces. In case parameter curves coincide with these curves, we show that the base curve of a developable surface could be either a plane curve, a circular helix,…
In this paper we characterize concircular helices in $R^3$ by means of a differential equation involving their curvature and torsion. We find a full description of concircular surfaces in $R^3$ as a special family of ruled surfaces, and we…
The topological structure of the lines of principal curvature, the umbilic and partially umbilic singularities of all tridimensional ellipsoids of ${\mathbb R}^4$ is described.
In this paper is studied the behavior of lines of curvature near umbilic points that appear generically on surfaces depending on two parameters.
We investigate complete non-orientable minimal surfaces of finite total curvature in $\mathbb{R}^3$ such that their ends are foliated by closed lines of curvature. This condition on the ends is necessary if they have a piece inside some…
We determine all helical surfaces in three-dimensional Euclidean space which possess a constant ratio $a:=\kappa_1/\kappa_2$ of principal curvatures (CRPC surfaces), thus providing the first explicit CRPC surfaces beyond the known…
Curvature principal directions on geometric surfaces are a ubiquitous concept of Geometry Processing techniques. However they only account for order 2 differential quantities, oblivious of higher order differential behaviors. In this paper,…
