Visualization of Surfaces in Four-Dimensional Space

چکیده
We discuss some issues of displaying ~wo-dimensional surfaces in four-dimensional (4D) space, including the behavior of surface normals under projedion, the silhouette points due to the projection, and methods Cor object orientation and projection center specification. We have implemented an interactive 4D display system on z-butrer based graphics workstations. Preliminary experiments show that such a 4D display system can give valuable insights into high-dimensional geometry. We present some pictures from the examples using high-dimensional geometry, offset curve tracing and collision detection problems, and explain some of the insights they convey.

An extension theorem for finite positive measures on surfaces of finite dimensional unit balls in Hilbert spaces
A consistency criteria is given for a certain class of finite positive measures on the surfaces of the finite dimensional unit balls in a real separable Hilbert space. It is proved, through a Kolmogorov type existence theorem, that the class induces a unique positive measure on the surface of the unit ball in the Hilbert space. As an application, this will naturally accomplish the work of Kante...
متن کاملTranslation surfaces according to a new frame
In this paper we studied the translation surfaces according to a new frame called q-frame in three dimensional Euclidean space. The curvatures of the translation surface are obtained in terms of q-frame curvatures. Finally some special cases are investigated for these surfaces.

In Wesson's canonical model, the universe is assumed to be five dimensional (5D) empty space time. This model corresponds to a solution of the Einstein field equation in five dimensions which, from a four dimensional point of view, is equivalent to a universe with a positive cosmological constant. In this model, the fifth direction is perpendicular to the four dimensional space time and is not...
متن کاملSurfaces Generated by Translation Surfaces of Type 1 in I^1_3
In this paper, we classify surface at a constant distance from the edge of regression on translation surfaces of Type 1 in the three dimensional simply isotropic space I^1_3 satisfying some algebraic equations in terms of the coordinate functions and the Laplacian operators with respect to the first, the second and the third fundamental form of the surface. We also give explicit forms of these ...
متن کاملHyperbolic surfaces of $L_1$-2-type
In this paper, we show that an $L_1$-2-type surface in the three-dimensional hyperbolic space $H^3subset R^4_1$ either is an open piece of a standard Riemannian product $ H^1(-sqrt{1+r^2})times S^{1}(r)$, or it has non constant mean curvature, non constant Gaussian curvature, and non constant principal curvatures.
