Study classifies zero mean curvature surfaces with planar curvature lines.

Minimal surfaces with planar curvature lines in the Euclidean space have been studied since the late 19th century. On the other hand, the classification of maximal surfaces with planar curvature lines in the Lorentz-Minkowski space has only recently been given. In this paper, we use an alternative method not only to re…

In this paper are determined the principal curvatures and principal curvature lines on canal surfaces which are the envelopes of families of spheres with variable radius and centers moving along a closed regular curve in R^3. By means of a connection of the differential equations for these curvature lines and real Ricc…

In this paper, we study the line bundle mean curvature flow defined by Jacob and Yau. The line bundle mean curvature flow is a kind of parabolic flows to obtain deformed Hermitian Yang-Mills metrics on a given Kähler manifold. The goal of this paper is to give an $\varepsilon$-regularity theorem for the line bundle mea…

In this paper, we analyze the problem of constructing a surface pencil from a given spacelike (timelike) line of curvature. By using the Frenet frame of the given curve in Minkowski 3-space, we express the surface pencil as a linear combination of this frame and derive the necessary and sufficient conditions for the co…

The purpose of this paper is, first, to give an algorithm that enables to obtain the lines of curvature on parametric hypersurfaces in Euclidean 4-space, and then, to obtain the curvatures of such lines by using the extended Darboux frame along the curve.

In this work we study the affine principal lines of surfaces in 3-space. We consider the binary differential equation of the affine curvature lines and obtain the topological models of these curves near the affine umbilic points (elliptic and hyperbolic). We also describe the generic behavior of affine curvature lines …

We study discrete curvatures computed from nets of curvature lines on a given smooth surface, and prove their uniform convergence to smooth principal curvatures. We provide explicit error bounds, with constants depending only on properties of the smooth limit surface and the shape regularity of the discrete net.

It is shown that the determinant line bundle associated to a family of Dirac operators over a closed partitioned manifold has a canonical Hermitian metric with compatible connection whose curvature satisfies an additivity formula with contributions from the families of Dirac operators over the two halves. This curvatur…

In this paper is studied the behavior of principal curvature lines near a curve of umbilic points of a smooth surface.

We describe the $ν$-lines of curvature of an embedding of the double torus into $\mathbb R^4$, defined as the link of the real part of the Milnor fibration of a polynomial, where $ν$ is its gradient. Through this analysis, we present a complete description of the foliation of lines of curvature of the embedding, define…

We compute the curvature of the determinant line bundle on a family of Dirac operators for a noncommutative two torus. Following Quillen's original construction for Riemann surfaces and using zeta regularized determinant of Laplacians, one can endow the determinant line bundle with a natural Hermitian metric. By using …

We construct real analytic flat Moebius strips of arbitrary isotopy types, whose centerlines are geodesics or lines of curvature.

Cyclidic nets are introduced as discrete analogs of curvature line parametrized surfaces and orthogonal coordinate systems. A 2-dimensional cyclidic net is a piecewise smooth $C^1$-surface built from surface patches of Dupin cyclides, each patch being bounded by curvature lines of the supporting cyclide. An explicit de…

In this paper we study the asymptotic behaviour of the spectral function corresponding to the lower part of the spectrum of the Kodaira Laplacian on high tensor powers of a holomorphic line bundle. This implies a full asymptotic expansion of this function on the set where the curvature of the line bundle is non-degener…

We employ min-max methods to construct uncountably many, geometrically distinct, properly embedded geodesic lines in any asymptotically conical surface of non-negative scalar curvature, a setting where minimization schemes are doomed to fail. Our construction provides control of the Morse index of the geodesic lines we…

Study of families of lines on spheres and their focal sets.

Minimal surfaces with planar curvature lines are classical geometric objects, having been studied since the late 19th century. In this paper, we revisit the subject from a different point of view. After calculating their metric functions using an analytical method, we recover the Weierstrass data, and give clean parame…

The paper extends a theorem about Kähler manifolds with quasi-negative curvature to almost quasi-negative curvature.

We prove that a smooth complex projective threefold with a Kähler metric of negative holomorphic sectional curvature has ample canonical line bundle. In dimensions greater than three, we prove that, under equal assumptions, the nef dimension of the canonical line bundle is maximal. With certain additional assumptions, …

Let X --> B be a holomorphic submersion between compact Kahler manifolds of any dimension, whose fibres and base have no non-zero holomorphic vector fields and whose fibres all admit constant scalar curvature Kahler metrics. This article gives a sufficient topological condition for the existence of a constant scalar cu…

We discuss positive closed currents and Fubini-Study currents on orbifolds, as well as Bergman kernels of singular Hermitian orbifold line bundles. We prove that the Fubini-Study currents associated to high powers of a semipositive singular line bundle converge weakly to the curvature current on the set where the curva…

In this paper we prequantize the moduli space of non-abelian vortices. We explicitly calculate the symplectic form arising from the $L^2$ metric and we construct a prequantum line bundle whose curvature is proportional to this symplectic form. The prequantum line bundle turns out to be Quillen's determinant line bundle…

The leaves of the foliations …
