We consider developable surfaces along the singular set of a swallowtail which are considered to be flat approximations of the swallowtail.

In this paper we introduce the notion of cofrontal mappings, as the dual objects to frontal mappings, and study their basic local and global properties.

It is classically known that complete flat surfaces in Euclidean 3-space are cylinders over space curves. This implies that the study of global behaviour of flat surfaces requires the study of singular points as well. If a flat surface ff admits singularities but its Gauss map νν can be smoothly extended across the s…
