Geometry of curves and surfaces through the contact map
We introduce a new approach to the study of affine equidistants and centre symmetry sets via a family of maps obtained by reflexion in the midpoints of chords of a submanifold of affine space. We apply this to surfaces in R, previously studied by Giblin and Zakalyukin, and then apply the same ideas to surfaces in R, elucidating some of the connexions between their geometry and the family of ref...
متن کاملA Primer on Shapes: Curves and Surfaces
Dynamic NURBS, or D-NURBS, are a physics-based generalization of non-uniform rational B-splines. NURBS have become a de facto standard in commercial modeling systems because of their power to represent both free-form and common analytic shapes. Traditionally, however, NURBS have been viewed as purely geometric primitives, which require the designer to interactively adjust many degrees of freedo...
متن کاملTransforming Curves on Surfaces
We describe an optimal algorithm to decide if one closed curve on a triangulated 2-manifold can be continuously transformed to another, i.e., if they are homotopic. Suppose C 1 and C 2 are two closed curves on a surface M of genus g. Further, suppose T is a triangulation of M of size n such that C 1 and C 2 are represented as edge-vertex sequences of lengths k 1 and k 2 in T , respectively. The...
متن کاملSimple Curves on Surfaces
We study simple closed geodesics on a hyperbolic surface of genus g with b geodesic boundary components and c cusps. We show that the number of such geodesics of length at most L is of order L. This answers a long-standing open question. Let S be a hyperbolic surface of genus g with c cusps and b boundary components. In this paper we study the set of simple (that is, without selfintersections) ...
متن کاملCurves on Normal Surfaces
We study locally Cohen-Macaulay space curves lying on normal surfaces. We prove some theorems on the behaviour of the cohomology functions and initial ideals of such space curves, which give a basic distinction between those curves and curves lying on non-normal surfaces. A natural step in the study and classification of space curves is to classify the Hilbert functions of space curves, or, mor...
