Developability of Triangle Meshes
Developability of Triangle Meshes ODED STEIN and EITAN GRINSPUN, Columbia University KEENAN CRANE, Carnegie Mellon University Fig. 1. By encouraging discrete developability, a given mesh evolves toward a shape comprised of flattenable pieces separated by highly regular seam curves. Developable surfaces are those that can be made by smoothly bending flat pieces—most industrial applications still rely on manual interaction pieces without stretching or shearing. We introduce a definition of devel- and designer expertise [Chang 2015]. opability for triangle meshes which exactly captures two key properties of The goal of this paper is to develop mathematical and computa- smooth developable surfaces, namely flattenability and presence of straight tional foundations for developability in the simplicial setting, and ruling lines.

Focal Surfaces of Discrete Geometry
Eurographics Symposium on Geometry Processing (2007) Alexander Belyaev, Michael Garland (Editors) Focal Surfaces of Discrete Geometry Jingyi Yu1, Xiaotian Yin2, Xianfeng Gu2, Leonard McMillan3, and Steven Gortler4 1University of Delaware, Newark DE, USA 2State University of New York, Stony Brook NY, USA 3University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill NC, USA 4Harvard University, Cambridge MA, USA Abstract The differential geometry of smooth three-dimensional surfaces can be interpreted from one of two perspectives: in terms of oriented frames located on the surface, or in terms of a pair of associated focal surfaces. These focal surfaces are swept by the loci of the principal curvatures’ radii. In this article, we develop a focal-surface-based differential geometry interpretation for discrete mesh surfaces. Focal surfaces have many useful properties. For instance, the normal of each focal surface indicates a principal direction of the corresponding point on the original surface. We provide algorithms to estimate focal surfaces of a triangle mesh robustly, with known or estimated normals. Our approach locally parameterizes the surface normals about a point by their intersections with a pair of parallel planes. We show neighboring normal triplets are constrained to pass simultaneously through two slits, which are parallel to the specified parametrization planes and rule the focal surfaces. We develop both CPU and GPU-based algorithms to efficiently approximate these two slits and, hence, the focal meshes. Our focal mesh estimation also provides a novel discrete shape operator that simultaneously estimates the principal curvatures and principal directions.

Basics of the Differential Geometry of Surfaces
Chapter 20 Basics of the Differential Geometry of Surfaces 20.1 Introduction The purpose of this chapter is to introduce the reader to some elementary concepts of the differential geometry of surfaces. Our goal is rather modest: We simply want to introduce the concepts needed to understand the notion of Gaussian curvature, mean curvature, principal curvatures, and geodesic lines. Almost all of the material presented in this chapter is based on lectures given by Eugenio Calabi in an upper undergraduate differential geometry course offered in the fall of 1994. Most of the topics covered in this course have been included, except a presentation of the global Gauss–Bonnet–Hopf theorem, some material on special coordinate systems, and Hilbert’s theorem on surfaces of constant negative curvature. What is a surface? A precise answer cannot really be given without introducing the concept of a manifold. An informal answer is to say that a surface is a set of points in R3 such that for every point p on the surface there is a small (perhaps very small) neighborhood U of p that is continuously deformable into a little flat open disk. Thus, a surface should really have some topology. Also,locally,unlessthe point p is “singular,” the surface looks like a plane. Properties of surfaces can be classified into local properties and global prop- erties.Intheolderliterature,thestudyoflocalpropertieswascalled geometry in the small,andthestudyofglobalpropertieswascalledgeometry in the large.Lo- cal properties are the properties that hold in a small neighborhood of a point on a surface. Curvature is a local property. Local properties canbestudiedmoreconve- niently by assuming that the surface is parametrized locally. -
Minimal Surfaces
Minimal Surfaces December 13, 2012 Alex Verzea 260324472 MATH 580: Partial Dierential Equations 1 Professor: Gantumur Tsogtgerel 1 Intuitively, a Minimal Surface is a surface that has minimal area, locally. First, we will give a mathematical denition of the minimal surface. Then, we shall give some examples of Minimal Surfaces to gain a mathematical under- standing of what they are and nally move on to a generalization of minimal surfaces, called Willmore Surfaces. The reason for this is that Willmore Surfaces are an active and important eld of study in Dierential Geometry. We will end with a presentation of the Willmore Conjecture, which has recently been proved and with some recent work done in this area. Until we get to Willmore Surfaces, we assume that we are in R3. Denition 1: The two Principal Curvatures, k1 & k2 at a point p 2 S, 3 S⊂ R are the eigenvalues of the shape operator at that point. In classical Dierential Geometry, k1 & k2 are the maximum and minimum of the Second Fundamental Form. The principal curvatures measure how the surface bends by dierent amounts in dierent directions at that point. Below is a saddle surface together with normal planes in the directions of principal curvatures. Denition 2: The Mean Curvature of a surface S is an extrinsic measure of curvature; it is the average of it's two principal curvatures: 1 . H ≡ 2 (k1 + k2) Denition 3: The Gaussian Curvature of a point on a surface S is an intrinsic measure of curvature; it is the product of the principal curvatures: of the given point. -

It is shown that if a C2 surface M c M3 has negative curvature on the complement of a point q e M, then the Z/2-valued Poincare-Hopf index at q of either distribution of principal directions on M — {q} is non-positive. -
