Ramification of the Gauss map of complete minimal surfaces in 3 and 4 on annular ends

Gerd Dethloff, Pham Hoang Ha (2014)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

In this article, we study the ramification of the Gauss map of complete minimal surfaces in 3 and 4 on annular ends. We obtain results which are similar to the ones obtained by Fujimoto ([4], [5]) and Ru ([13], [14]) for (the whole) complete minimal surfaces, thus we show that the restriction of the Gauss map to an annular end of such a complete minimal surface cannot have more branching (and in particular not avoid more values) than on the whole complete minimal surface. We thus give...

A Note on Surfaces in 2 ×

Stefano Montaldo, Irene I. Onnis (2007)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

In this article we consider surfaces in the product space 2 × of the hyperbolic plane 2 with the real line. The main results are: a description of some geometric properties of minimal graphs; new examples of complete minimal graphs; the local classification of totally umbilical surfaces.

Counting lines on surfaces

Samuel Boissière, Alessandra Sarti (2007)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

Similarity:

This paper deals with surfaces with many lines. It is well-known that a cubic contains 27 of them and that the maximal number for a quartic is 64 . In higher degree the question remains open. Here we study classical and new constructions of surfaces with high number of lines. We obtain a symmetric octic with 352 lines, and give examples of surfaces of degree d containing a sequence of d ( d - 2 ) + 4 skew lines.

A characterization of a certain real hypersurface of type ( A 2 ) in a complex projective space

Byung Hak Kim, In-Bae Kim, Sadahiro Maeda (2017)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

In the class of real hypersurfaces M 2 n - 1 isometrically immersed into a nonflat complex space form M ˜ n ( c ) of constant holomorphic sectional curvature c ( 0 ) which is either a complex projective space P n ( c ) or a complex hyperbolic space H n ( c ) according as c > 0 or c < 0 , there are two typical examples. One is the class of all real hypersurfaces of type (A) and the other is the class of all ruled real hypersurfaces. Note that the former example are Hopf manifolds and the latter are non-Hopf manifolds....

New characterizations of linear Weingarten hypersurfaces immersed in the hyperbolic space

Cícero P. Aquino, Henrique F. de Lima (2015)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

In this paper, we deal with complete linear Weingarten hypersurfaces immersed in the hyperbolic space n + 1 , that is, complete hypersurfaces of n + 1 whose mean curvature H and normalized scalar curvature R satisfy R = a H + b for some a , b . In this setting, under appropriate restrictions on the mean curvature and on the norm of the traceless part of the second fundamental form, we prove that such a hypersurface must be either totally umbilical or isometric to a hyperbolic cylinder of n + 1 . Furthermore,...

A genericity theorem for algebraic stacks and essential dimension of hypersurfaces

Zinovy Reichstein, Angelo Vistoli (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We compute the essential dimension of the functors Forms n , d and Hypersurf n , d of equivalence classes of homogeneous polynomials in n variables and hypersurfaces in n 1 , respectively, over any base field k of characteristic 0 . Here two polynomials (or hypersurfaces) over K are considered equivalent if they are related by a linear change of coordinates with coefficients in K . Our proof is based on a new Genericity Theorem for algebraic stacks, which is of independent interest. As another application...

Spacelike intersection curve of three spacelike hypersurfaces in E 1 4

B. Uyar Duldul, M. Caliskan (2013)

Annales Universitatis Mariae Curie-Sklodowska, sectio A – Mathematica

Similarity:

In this paper, we compute the Frenet vectors and the curvatures of the spacelike intersection curve of three spacelike hypersurfaces given by their parametric equations in four-dimensional Minkowski space E 1 4 .

Some surfaces with maximal Picard number

Arnaud Beauville (2014)

Journal de l’École polytechnique — Mathématiques

Similarity:

For a smooth complex projective variety, the rank ρ of the Néron-Severi group is bounded by the Hodge number h 1 , 1 . Varieties with ρ = h 1 , 1 have interesting properties, but are rather sparse, particularly in dimension 2 . We discuss in this note a number of examples, in particular those constructed from curves with special Jacobians.

The KSBA compactification for the moduli space of degree two K 3 pairs

Radu Laza (2016)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Inspired by the ideas of the minimal model program, Shepherd-Barron, Kollár, and Alexeev have constructed a geometric compactification for the moduli space of surfaces of log general type. In this paper, we discuss one of the simplest examples that fits into this framework: the case of pairs ( X , H ) consisting of a degree two K 3 surface X and an ample divisor H . Specifically, we construct and describe explicitly a geometric compactification P ¯ 2 for the moduli of degree two K 3 pairs. This compactification...

Numerical Campedelli surfaces with fundamental group of order 9

Margarida Mendes Lopes, Rita Pardini (2008)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We give explicit constructions of all the numerical Campedelli surfaces, i.e. the minimal surfaces of general type with K 2 = 2 and p g = 0 , whose fundamental group has order 9. There are three families, one with π 1 alg = 9 and two with π 1 alg = 3 2 . We also determine the base locus of the bicanonical system of these surfaces. It turns out that for the surfaces with π 1 alg = 9 and for one of the families of surfaces with π 1 alg = 3 2 the base locus consists of two points. To our knowlegde, these are the only known examples of surfaces...

Implicitization of Parametric Hypersurfaces via Points

Ferruccio Orecchia, Isabella Ramella (2018)

Rendiconto dell’Accademia delle Scienze Fisiche e Matematiche

Similarity:

Given a parametric polynomial representation of an algebraic hypersurface 𝐒 in the projective space we give a new algorithm for finding the implicit cartesian equation of 𝐒 .The algorithm is based on finding a suitable finite number of points on 𝐒 and computing, by linear algebra, the equation of the hypersurface of least degree that passes through the points. In particular the algorithm works for plane curves and surfaces in the ordinary three-dimensional space. Using C++ the algorithm...

On some properties of three-dimensional minimal sets in 4

Tien Duc Luu (2013)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

We prove in this paper the Hölder regularity of Almgren minimal sets of dimension 3 in 4 around a 𝕐 -point and the existence of a point of particular type of a Mumford-Shah minimal set in 4 , which is very close to a 𝕋 . This will give a local description of minimal sets of dimension 3 in 4 around a singular point and a property of Mumford-Shah minimal sets in 4 .

Even sets of nodes on sextic surfaces

Fabrizio Catanese, Fabio Tonoli (2007)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We determine the possible even sets of nodes on sextic surfaces in 3 , showing in particular that their cardinalities are exactly the numbers in the set { 24 , 32 , 40 , 56 } . We also show that all the possible cases admit an explicit description. The methods that we use are an interplay of coding theory and projective geometry on one hand, and of homological and computer algebra on the other. We give a detailed geometric construction for the new case of an even set of 56 nodes, but the ultimate verification...

A characterization of n-dimensional hypersurfaces in R n + 1 with commuting curvature operators

Yulian T. Tsankov (2005)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Let Mⁿ be a hypersurface in R n + 1 . We prove that two classical Jacobi curvature operators J x and J y commute on Mⁿ, n > 2, for all orthonormal pairs (x,y) and for all points p ∈ M if and only if Mⁿ is a space of constant sectional curvature. Also we consider all hypersurfaces with n ≥ 4 satisfying the commutation relation ( K x , y K z , u ) ( u ) = ( K z , u K x , y ) ( u ) , where K x , y ( u ) = R ( x , y , u ) , for all orthonormal tangent vectors x,y,z,w and for all points p ∈ M.

Systole growth for finite area hyperbolic surfaces

Florent Balacheff, Eran Makover, Hugo Parlier (2014)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

In this note, we observe that the maximum value achieved by the systole function over all complete finite area hyperbolic surfaces of a given signature ( g , n ) is greater than a function that grows logarithmically in terms of the ratio g / n .
