Structurally stable configurations of lines of mean curvature and umbilic points on surfaces immersed in R.

Ronaldo García, Jorge Sotomayor (2001)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

Similarity:

In this paper we study the pairs of orthogonal foliations on oriented surfaces immersed in R whose singularities and leaves are, respectively, the umbilic points and the lines of normal mean curvature of the immersion. Along these lines the immersions bend in R according to their normal mean curvature. By analogy with the closely related Principal Curvature Configurations studied in [S-G], [GS2], whose lines produce the extremal for the immersion, the pair of foliations by lines of...

Doubling constant mean curvature tori in S 3

Adrian Butscher, Frank Pacard (2006)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

Similarity:

The Clifford tori in S 3 constitute a one-parameter family of flat, two-dimensional, constant mean curvature (CMC) submanifolds. This paper demonstrates that new, topologically non-trivial CMC surfaces resembling a pair of neighbouring Clifford tori connected at a sub-lattice consisting of at least two points by small catenoidal bridges can be constructed by perturbative PDE methods. That is, one can create a submanifold that has almost everywhere constant mean curvature by gluing a re-scaled...

Non-degenerate quadric surfaces of Weingarten type

Dae Won Yoon, Yılmaz Tunçer, Murat Kemal Karacan (2013)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We study quadric surfaces in Euclidean 3-space with non-degenerate second fundamental form, and classify them in terms of the Gaussian curvature, the mean curvature, the second Gaussian curvature and the second mean curvature.
