Conformal Hypersurfaces with the Same Gauss Map

The hypersurfaces with conformal normal Gauss map in H n + 1 and S n + 11 ∗ † ‡

In this paper we introduce the fourth fundamental form for the hypersurfaces in H and the space-like hypersurfaces in S 1 and discuss the conformality of the normal Gauss maps of the hypersurfaces in H and S 1 . Particularly, we discuss the surfaces with conformal normal Gauss maps in H and S 1 and prove a duality property. We give the Weierstrass representation formula for the space-like surfa...

Motion of Hypersurfaces by Gauss Curvature

We consider n-dimensional convex Euclidean hypersurfaces moving with normal velocity proportional to a positive power α of the Gauss curvature. We prove that hypersurfaces contract to points in finite time, and for α ∈ (1/(n + 2], 1/n] we also prove that in the limit the solutions evolve purely by homothetic contraction to the final point. We prove existence and uniqueness of solutions for non-...

Existence of Convex Hypersurfaces with Prescribed Gauss-kronecker Curvature

Let f(x) be a given positive function in Rn+1. In this paper we consider the existence of convex, closed hypersurfaces X so that its GaussKronecker curvature at x ∈ X is equal to f(x). This problem has variational structure and the existence of stable solutions has been discussed by Tso (J. Diff. Geom. 34 (1991), 389–410). Using the Mountain Pass Lemma and the Gauss curvature flow we prove the ...

A Noncommutative Gauss Map

The aim of this paper is to transfer the Gauss map, which is a Bernoulli shift for continued fractions, to the noncommutative setting. We feel that a natural place for such a map to act is on the AF algebra A considered separately by F. Boca and D. Mundici. The center of A is isomorphic to C[0, 1], so we first consider the action of the Gauss map on C[0, 1] and then extend the map to A and show...
