We investigate basic features of Bianchi's B\"acklund transformation of quadrics to see if it can be obtained under weaker assumptions and if it can be generalized to deformations of other surfaces.
We characterize Bianchi-B\"{a}cklund transformations of surfaces of positive constant Gauss curvature in terms of dressing actions of the simplest type on the space of harmonic maps.
In trying to generalize Bianchi's B\"acklund transformation of quadrics to B\"acklund transformations of isometric deformations of other (classes of) surfaces, we investigate basic features of the isometric deformation of surfaces via the…
Isothermic surfaces are surfaces which allow a conformal curvature line parametrisation. They form an integrable system, and Darboux transforms of isothermic surfaces obey Bianchi permutability: for two distinct spectral parameters the…
We use the dressing method to construct transformations of constrained Willmore surfaces in arbitrary codimension. An adaptation of the Terng--Uhlenbeck theory of dressing by simple factors to this context leads us to define B\"acklund…
The new integrable mapping with a simple geometric interpretation is presented. This mapping arise from the nonlinear superposition principle for the B\"acklund transformations of some vector evolution equation.
This monograph, written for educational purposes, serves as an introduction to the concept of integrability as it applies to systems of differential equations (both ordinary and partial) as well as to vector-valued fields. The general cases…
We introduce a notion of a bounded ideal triangulation of an infinite Riemann surface and parametrize Teichm\"uller spaces of infinite surfaces which allow bounded triangulations. We prove that our parametrization is real-analytic. Riemann…
Remarkable parallelism between the theory of integrable systems of first-order quasilinear PDE and some old results in projective and affine differential geometry of conjugate nets, Laplace equations, their Bianchi-Baecklund transformations…
We prove the Bianchi permutability (existence of superposition principle) of B\"acklund transformations for asymmetric quad-equations. Such equations and there B\"acklund transformations form 3D consistent systems of a priori different…
A normal field on a spacelike surface in $R^4_1$ is called bi-normal if $K^{\nu}$, the determinant of Weingarten map associated with $\nu$, is zero. In this paper we give a relationship between the spacelike pseudo-planar surfaces and…
A novel class of integrable surfaces is recorded. This class of O surfaces is shown to include and generalize classical surfaces such as isothermic, constant mean curvature, minimal, `linear' Weingarten, Guichard and Petot surfaces and…
We give new Backlund transformations (BTs) for some known integrable (in the sense of being multidimensionally consistent) quadrilateral lattice equations. As opposed to the natural auto-BT inherent in every such equation, these BTs are of…
Indefinite Kaehler solutions of the Einstein equations are studied, and it is almost completely determined which compact complex surfaces admit such metrics.
We present interpretation of known results in the theory of discrete asymptotic and discrete conjugate nets from the "discretization by B\"{a}cklund transformations" point of view. We collect both classical formulas of XIXth century…
We produce implicit equations for general biquadratic (order 2x2) B\'ezier triangle and quadrilateral surface patches and provide function evaluation code, using modern computing resources to exploit old algebraic construction techniques.
We study the congruence of bitangent lines of an irreducible surface in the 3-dimensional projective space in arbitrary characteristic, with special attention to quartic surfaces with rational double points and, in particular, Kummer…
The aim of this paper is to investigate the differential geometry of immersed surfaces in three-dimensional normed spaces from the viewpoint of affine differential geometry. We endow the surface with a useful Riemannian metric which is…
We prove that the Brauer group of the generic diagonal surface of arbitrary degree is trivial. The same method is applied to surfaces whose equation can be written as the sum of two bilinear forms. This uses a general criterion for the…
The aim of these notes is to present an accessible overview of some topics in classical algebraic geometry which have applications to aspects of discrete integrable systems. Precisely, we focus on surface theory on the algebraic geometry…
