A point with ru x rv = 0 is called a singular point. • Implicit surface f(x,y,z)=0, the unit normal vector is given by 훻푓 푵 = 훻푓 3 First Fundamental Form I (Metric) • If we define the parametric curve by a curve u=u(t) v=v(t) on a parametric surface r=r(u,v) 푑풓 푑푢 푑푣 푑푠 = 푑푡 = 풓 + 풓 푑푡 푑푡 푢 푑푡 푣 푑푡 = (풓푢푢ሶ + 풓푣푣ሶ) ∙ (풓푢푢ሶ + 풓푣푣ሶ)푑푡 푑푢 푑푣 = 퐸푑푢2 + 2퐹푑푢푑푣 + 퐺푑푣2 (∵ 푢ሶ = , 푣ሶ = ) 푑푡 푑푡 where 퐸 = 풓푢 ∙ 풓푢, 퐹 = 풓푢 ∙ 풓푣, 퐺 = 풓푣 ∙ 풓푣 • E, F, G are call the first fundamental form coefficients and play important role in many intrinsic properties of a surface 4 First Fundamental Form I (cont.) • Definition: The first fundamental form is defined as 퐼 = (푑푠)2= 푑풓 ∙ 푑풓 = 퐸푑푢2 + 2퐹푑푢푑푣 + 퐺푑푣2 which can also be rewritten as 푎 × 푏 ∙ 푐 × 푑 1 퐸퐺 − 퐹2 =(a ∙ c)(b ∙ d)-(a ∙ d)(b ∙ c) 퐼 = (퐸푑푢 + 퐹푑푣)2+ (푑푣)2 퐸 퐸 • We can then have 퐸 = 풓푢 ∙ 풓푢 > 0 2 (풓푢 × 풓푣) = 풓푢 × 풓푣 ∙ 풓푢 × 풓푣 2 2 = 풓푢 ∙ 풓푢 풓푣 ∙ 풓푣 − 풓푢 ∙ 풓푣 = 퐸퐺 − 퐹 > 0 • Conclusion: we know that I is positive definite, provided that the surface is regular (since 퐼 ≥ 0 and I = 0 if and only if du=0 and dv=0 at the same time) 5 Example I: Let’s compute the arc length of a curve 푢 = 푡, 푣 = 푡 for 0 ≤ 푡 ≤ 1 on a hyperbolic paraboloid r(u, v)=(u, v, uv)T where 0 ≤ 푢, 푣 ≤ 1. 푇 푇 Solution: 풓푢 = (1,0, 푣) , 풓푣 = (0,1, 푢) 2 2 퐸 = 풓푢 ∙ 풓푢 = 1 + 푣 , 퐺 = 풓푣 ∙ 풓푣 = 1 + 푢 , 퐹 = 풓푢 ∙ 풓푣 = 푢푣. and along the curve the first fundamental form coefficients are 퐸 = 1 + 푡2, 퐺 = 1 + 푡2, 퐹 = 푡2. Thus 1 푑푠 = 퐸푢ሶ 2 + 2퐹푢ሶ 푣ሶ + 퐺푣ሶ 2푑푡 = 2 + 4푡2푑푡 = 2 푡2 + 푑푡 2 The arc length 1 1 1 1 1 1 ( + 푠 = ׬ 2 푡2 + 푑푡 = 푡 푡2 + + log(푡 + 푡2 0 2 2 2 2 0 3 1 = + log( 2 + 3) 2 2 6 First Fundamental Form I (Angle) • The angle between two curves on a parametric surface 풓1 = 풓(푢1 푡 , 푣1 푡 ), 풓2 = 풓(푢2 푡 , 푣2 푡 ) can be evaluated by tacking the inner product of their tangent vectors. 푑풓 ∙ d풓 cos 휔 = 1 2 푑풓1 푑풓2 퐸푑푢 푑푢 + 퐹 푑푢 푑푣 + 푑푣 푑푢 + 퐺푑푣 푑푣 = 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 2 2 2 2 퐸푑푢1 + 2퐹푑푢1푑푣1 + 퐺푑푣1 퐸푑푢2 + 2퐹푑푢2푑푣2 + 퐺푑푣2 • As a result, the orthogonality condition for 풓ሶ 1 and 풓ሶ 2 is 퐸푑푢1푑푢2 + 퐹 푑푢1푑푣2 + 푑푣1푑푢2 + 퐺푑푣1푑푣2 = 0 • In particular, the angle of two iso-parametric curves is 풓 ∙ 풓 풓 ∙ 풓 퐹 cos 휔 = 푢 푣 = 푢 푣 = 풓푢 풓푣 풓푢 ∙ 풓푢 풓푣 ∙ 풓푣 퐸퐺 Thus, the iso-parametric curves are orthogonal if 퐹 ≡ 0. 7 First Fundamental Form I (Area) • The area of a small parallelogram with 4 vertices 풓(푢, 푣), 풓(푢 + 훿푢, 푣), 풓(푢, 푣 + 훿푣), 풓(푢 + 훿푢, 푣 + 훿푣) 풓(푢, 푣 + 훿푣) 풓(푢 + 훿푢, 푣 + 훿푣) δ퐴 풓(푢, 푣) 풓(푢 + 훿푢, 푣) is approximated by 2 δ퐴 = 풓푢훿푢 × 풓푣훿푣 = 퐸퐺 − 퐹 훿푢훿푣 2 2 (∵ 풓푢 × 풓푣 =(풓푢 ∙ 풓푢)(풓푣 ∙ 풓푣) − (풓푢 ∙ 풓푣) ) Or in different form as 푑퐴 = 퐸퐺 − 퐹2푑푢푑푣 8 Example II: Let’s compute the area of a region on the hyperbolic paraboloid. The region is bounded by positive u and v axes and a quarter circle 푢2 + 푣2 = 1 as shown. Solution: Again 푇 푇 풓푢 = (1,0, 푣) , 풓푣 = (0,1, 푢) 2 2 퐸 = 풓푢 ∙ 풓푢 = 1 + 푣 , 퐺 = 풓푣 ∙ 풓푣 = 1 + 푢 , 퐹 = 풓푢 ∙ 풓푣 = 푢푣 퐸퐺 − 퐹2 = 1 + 푣2 1 + 푢2 − 푢2푣2 = 1 + 푢2 + 푣2 ∴ 퐴 = න 1 + 푢2 + 푣2푑푢푑푣 퐷 Letting 푢 = 푟 cos 휃 and 푣 = 푟 sin 휃 휋 2 1 휋 퐴 = න න 푟 1 + 푟2 푑푟푑휃 = ( 8 − 1) 0 0 6 9 Second Fundamental Form II (Curvature) • To quantify the curvature of a surface S, we consider a curve C on S which pass through the point p. N • The unit tangent vector t and t n the unit normal vector n of the kn k S C k curve C are related by g k = dt/ds = kn = kn + kg where kn is the normal curvature vector and kg is the geodesic curvature vector. kg : the component of k in the direction perpendicular to t in the surface tangent plane kn : the component of k in the surface normal direction kn = knN, where kn - the normal curvature of surface at p in t direction. 10 Second Fundamental Form II (cont.) By differentiating 푵 ∙ 풕 = 0 along the curve with respect to s, we have 푑풕 푑푵 ∙ 푵 + 풕 ∙ = 0 푑푠 푑푠 Thus 푑풕 푑푵 푑풓 푑푵 ∵ 푑풓 = 풓푢푑푢 + 풓푣푑푣 푘푛 = ∙ 푵 = −풕 ∙ = − ∙ 푑푵 = 푵푢푑푢 + 푵푣푑푣 푑푠 푑푠 푑푠 푑푠 ∴ 푑풓 ∙ 푑푵 = 풓 ∙ 푵 푑푢2 퐿푑푢2 + 2푀푑푢푑푣 + 푁푑푣2 푢 푢 + 풓푢 ∙ 푵푣 + 풓푣 ∙ 푵푢 푑푢푑푣 = 2 2 2 퐸푑푢 + 2퐹푑푢푑푣 + 퐺푑푣 + 풓푣 ∙ 푵푣 푑푣 with 퐿 = −풓푢 ∙ 푵푢, 푁 = −풓푣 ∙ 푵푣, 1 푀 = − 풓 ∙ 푵 + 풓 ∙ 푵 = −풓 ∙ 푵 = −풓 ∙ 푵 2 푢 푣 푣 푢 푢 푣 푣 푢 11 Second Fundamental Form II (cont.) • Since ru and rv are perpendicular to N, we have 풓푢 ∙ 푵 = 0 ⟹ 풓푢푢 ∙ 푵 + 풓푢 ∙ 푵푢 = 0 (for L) 풓푣 ∙ 푵 = 0 ⟹ 풓푣 ∙ 푵푢 + 풓푢푣 ∙ 푵 = 0 (for M) 풓푣 ∙ 푵 = 0 ⟹ 풓푣푣 ∙ 푵 + 풓푣 ∙ 푵푣 = 0 (for N) hence: 퐿 = 풓푢푢 ∙ 푵, 푀 = 풓푢푣 ∙ 푵, 푁 = 풓푣푣 ∙ 푵 • We define the second fundamental form II as 퐼퐼 = 퐿푑푢2 + 2푀푑푢푑푣 + 푁푑푣2 and L, M, N are called second fundamental form coefficients 퐼퐼 퐿 + 2푀휆 + 푁휆2 푘 = = 푛 퐼 퐸 + 2퐹휆 + 푁퐺2 푑푣 where 휆 = is the direction of the tangent line to C at p. 푑푢 12 • Theorem: All curves lying on a surface S passing through a given point 풑 ∈ 푆 with the same tangent line have the same normal curvature at this point. • Note that, sometimes the positive normal curvature is defined in the opposite direction. • We now start to study the local surface property by II. • Suppose two neighboring points P and Q on S 푷 = 풓(푢, 푣) and 푸 = 풓(푢 + 푑푢, 푣 + 푑푣) By Taylor expansion, we have 풓 푢 + 푑푢, 푣 + 푑푣 = 풓 푢, 푣 + 풓푢푑푢 + 풓푣푑푣 1 + 풓 푑푢2 + 2풓 푑푢푑푣 + 풓 푑푣2 + ⋯ 2 푢푢 푢푣 푣푣 13 • Projecting the vector: 푷푸 = 풓 푢 + 푑푢, 푣 + 푑푣 − 풓 푢, 푣 1 = 풓 푑푢 + 풓 푑푣 + 풓 푑푢2 + 2풓 푑푢푑푣 + 풓 푑푣2 + ⋯ 푢 푣 2 푢푢 푢푣 푣푣 onto N by using the second fundamental form, we have 1 1 푷푸 ∙ 푵 = (풓 푑푢 + 풓 푑푣) ∙ 푵 + 퐼퐼 = 퐼퐼 푢 푣 2 2 (∵ 풓푢 ∙ 푵 = 풓푣 ∙ 푵 = 0) where the higher order terms are neglected. • In conclusion, the local shape variation: d = II / 2 When d = 0, it become 퐿푑푢2 + 2푀푑푢푑푣 + 푁푑푣2 = 0 which can be considered as a quadratic equation in terms of du, dv. −푀± 푀2−퐿푁 푑푢 = 푑푣 (Assuming 퐿 ≠ 0) 퐿 14 Local Shape Analysis by Second Fundamental Form II • 푀2 − 퐿푁 < 0, this is no real root: No intersection between r(u,v) and Tp except the point p.

A parametric surface S is the set of all points hx; y; zi such that hx; y; zi = r(u; v) for some hu; vi 2 D.

  • 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.

  • Surface Normals and Tangent Planes
    Surface Normals and Tangent Planes Normal and Tangent Planes to Level Surfaces Because the equation of a plane requires a point and a normal vector to the plane, …nding the equation of a tangent plane to a surface at a given point requires the calculation of a surface normal vector. In this section, we explore the concept of a normal vector to a surface and its use in …nding equations of tangent planes. To begin with, a level surface U (x; y; z) = k is said to be smooth if the gradient U = Ux;Uy;Uz is continuous and non-zero at any point on the surface. Equivalently,r h we ofteni write U = Uxex + Uyey + Uzez r where ex = 1; 0; 0 ; ey = 0; 1; 0 ; and ez = 0; 0; 1 : Supposeh now thati r (t) =h x (ti) ; y (t) ; z (t) hlies oni a smooth surface U (x; y; z) = k: Applying the derivative withh respect to t toi both sides of the equation of the level surface yields dU d = k dt dt Since k is a constant, the chain rule implies that U v = 0 r where v = x0 (t) ; y0 (t) ; z0 (t) . However, v is tangent to the surface because it is tangenth to a curve on thei surface, which implies that U is orthogonal to each tangent vector v at a given point on the surface. r That is, U (p; q; r) at a given point (p; q; r) is normal to the tangent plane to r 1 the surface U(x; y; z) = k at the point (p; q; r).

This paper reviews both the theory and practice of the nu- merical computation of geodesic distances on Riemannian manifolds. The notion of Riemannian manifold allows to define a local metric (a symmet- ric positive tensor field) that encodes the information about the prob- lem one wishes to solve. This takes into account a local isotropic cost (whether some point should be avoided or not) and a local anisotropy (which direction should be preferred).

  • Math 314 Lecture #34 §16.7: Surface Integrals
    Math 314 Lecture #34 §16.7: Surface Integrals Outcome A: Compute the surface integral of a function over a parametric surface. Let S be a smooth surface described parametrically by ~r(u, v), (u, v) ∈ D, and suppose the domain of f(x, y, z) includes S. The surface integral of f over S with respect to surface area is ZZ ZZ f(x, y, z) dS = f(~r(u, v))k~ru × ~rvk dA. S D When S is a piecewise smooth surface, i.e., a finite union of smooth surfaces S1,S2,...,Sk, that intersect only along their boundaries, the surface integral of f over S with respect to surface area is ZZ ZZ ZZ ZZ f dS = f dS + f dS + ··· + f dS, S S1 S2 Sk where the dS in each double integral is evaluated according the the parametric description of Si. Example. A parametric description of a surface S is ~r(u, v) = hu2, u sin v, u cos vi, 0 ≤ u ≤ 1, 0 ≤ v ≤ π/2. Here is a rendering of this surface. Here ~ru = h2u, sin v, cos vi and ~rv = h0, u cos v, −u sin vi, so that ~i ~j ~k 2 2 ~ru × ~rv = 2u sin v cos v = h−u, 2u sin v, 2u cos vi, 0 u cos v −u sin v and (with u ≥ 0), √ √ 2 4 2 k~ru × ~rvk = u + 4u = u 1 + 4u .

  • 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.

  • (Paraboloid) Z = X 2 + Y2 + 1. (A) Param
    PP 35 : Parametric surfaces, surface area and surface integrals 1. Consider the surface (paraboloid) z = x2 + y2 + 1. (a) Parametrize the surface by considering it as a graph. (b) Show that r(r; θ) = (r cos θ; r sin θ; r2 + 1); r ≥ 0; 0 ≤ θ ≤ 2π is a parametrization of the surface. (c) Parametrize the surface in the variables z and θ using the cylindrical coordinates. 2. For each of the following surfaces, describe the intersection of the surface and the plane z = k for some k > 0; and the intersection of the surface and the plane y = 0. Further write the surfaces in parametrized form r(z; θ) using the cylindrical co-ordinates. (a) 4z = x2 + 2y2 (paraboloid) (b) z = px2 + y2 (cone) 2 2 2 x2 y2 2 (c) x + y + z = 9; z ≥ 0 (Upper hemi-sphere) (d) − 9 − 16 + z = 1; z ≥ 0. 3. Let S denote the surface obtained by revolving the curve z = 3 + cos y; 0 ≤ y ≤ 2π about the y-axis. Find a parametrization of S. 4. Parametrize the part of the sphere x2 + y2 + z2 = 16; −2 ≤ z ≤ 2 using the spherical co-ordinates. 5. Consider the circle (y − 5)2 + z2 = 9; x = 0. Let S be the surface (torus) obtained by revolving this circle about the z-axis. Find a parametric representation of S with the parameters θ and φ where θ and φ are described as follows. If (x; y; z) is any point on the surface then θ is the angle between the x-axis and the line joining (0; 0; 0) and (x; y; 0) and φ is the angle between the line joining (x; y; z) and the center of the moving circle (which contains (x; y; z)) with the xy-plane.
