In this paper, we study Mannheim surface offsets in dual space. By the aid of the E. Study Mapping, we consider ruled surfaces as dual unit spherical curves and define the Mannheim offsets of the ruled surfaces by means of dual geodesic trihedron (dual Darboux frame). We obtain the relationships between the invariants …

Geodesic currents on hyperbolic surfaces have dual spaces that are metric trees.

We study ruled surfaces in R3 which are obtained from dual spher- ical indicatrix curves of dual Frenet vector fields. We find the Gaussian and mean curvatures of the ruled surfaces and give some results of being Wein- garten surface.

It is shown that a superconformal surface with arbitrary codimension in flat Euclidean space has a (necessarily unique) dual superconformal surface if and only if the surface is S-Willmore, the latter a well-known necessary condition to allow a dual as shown by Ma \cite{ma}. Duality means that both surfaces envelope th…

We study parallel surfaces and dual surfaces of cuspidal edges. We give concrete forms of principal curvature and principal direction for cuspidal edges. Moreover, we define ridge points for cuspidal edges by using those. We clarify relations between singularities of parallel and dual surfaces and differential geometri…

Study defines hyper-dual spheres and ruled surfaces, proving geometric relationships.

A complete surface of constant mean curvature 1 (CMC-1) in hyperbolic 3-space with constant curvature -1 has two natural notions of "total curvature"-- one is the total absolute curvature which is the integral over the surface of the absolute value of the Gaussian curvature, and the other is the dual total absolute cur…

We show that any hyperbolic Inoue surface (or Inoue-Hirzebruch surface of even type) admits anti-self-dual bihermitian structures. The same result also holds for any of its small deformations as far as its anti-canonical system is non-empty. Similar results are obtained for parabolic Inoue surfaces. Our method also yie…

In this paper, we study Bertrand surface offsets by considering the dual geodesic trihedron(dual Darboux frame) of the ruled surfaces. We obtain the relationships between the invariants of Bertrand trajectory ruled surfaces. Furthermore, we obtain the conditions for these surface offset to be developable.

This paper aims to develop basic theory for the dual Orlicz $L_φ$ affine and geominimal surface areas for star bodies, which belong to the recent dual Orlicz-Brunn-Minkowski theory for star bodies. Basic properties for these new affine invariants will be provided. Moreover, related Orlicz affine isoperimetric inequalit…

Superminimal surfaces in certain Einstein manifolds have a Calabi-Yau property.

We describe a new family of triply-periodic minimal surfaces with hexagonal symmetry, related to the quartz (qtz) and its dual (the qzd net). We provide a solution to the period problem and provide a parametrisation of these surfaces, that are not in the regular class, by the Weierstrass-Enneper formalism. We identifie…

Let $ X: M \hook S^5$ be a compact Legendrian surface in pseudoconformal(CR) 5-sphere. We introduce a pseudoconformally invariant Willmore type second order functional $ \W(X)$, and study its critical points called Willmore Legendrian surfaces. The fifth order structure equations show that Willmore dual can be defined …

In this paper, we investigate the relations between the pitch, the angle of pitch and drall of parallel ruled surface of a closed curve in dual Lorentzian space.

A global twistor correspondence is established for neutral self-dual conformal structures with alpha-surface foliation when the structure is close to the standard structure on S^2 times S^2. We need to introduce some singularity for the alpha-surface foliation such that the leaves intersect on a fixed two sphere. In th…

In this paper, we investigate the relations between the pitch, the angle of pitch and drall of parallel ruled surface of a closed spacelike curve with timelike binormal in dual Lorentzian space.

For one-dimensional systems of conservation laws admitting two additional conservation laws we assign a ruled surface of codimension two in projective space. We call two such systems dual if the corresponding ruled surfaces are dual. We show that a Hamiltonian system is autodual, its ruled surface sits in some quadric,…

In this paper, we investigate the relations between the pitch, the angle of pitch and drall of parallel ruled surface of a closed spacelike curve with a spacelike binormal in dual Lorentzian space.

There is a natural duality between line congruences in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^4$ that sends principal lines into asymptotic lines. The same correspondence takes the discriminant curve of a line congruence into the parabolic curve of the dual surface. Moreover, it takes the ridge curves to the flat r…

Unified framework for Arnold-type invariants via dual complexes and finite-difference structures.

In this paper, we obtain the characterizations of Mannheim offsets of the timelike ruled surface with spacelike rulings in dual Lorentzian space. We give the relations between terms of their integral invariants and also we give the new characterization of the Mannheim offsets of developable timelike ruled surface. More…

Study generalizes Yang-Mills equations for special complex surfaces.

A finite subset S of a closed hyperbolic surface F canonically determines a "centered dual decomposition" of F: a cell structure with vertex set S, geodesic edges, and 2-cells that are unions of the corresponding Delaunay polygons. Unlike a Delaunay polygon, a centered dual 2-cell Q is not determined by its collection …

We generalize the natural duality of graphs embedded into a surface to a duality with respect to a subset of edges. The dual graph might be embedded into a different surface. We prove a relation between the signed Bollobas-Riordan polynomials of dual graphs. This relation unifies various recent results expressing the J…

Any ruled surface in Euclidean 3-space is described as a curve of unit dual vectors in the algebra of dual quaternions (=the even Clifford algebra of type (0,3,1)). Combining this classical framework and Singularity Theory, we characterize local diffeomorphic types of singular ruled surfaces in terms of geometric invar…

Researchers describe the dual of cohomology generators for SU(2) character varieties of surfaces.

We investigate the relation between quadrics and their Christoffel duals on the one hand, and certain zero mean curvature surfaces and their Gauss maps on the other hand. To study the relation between timelike minimal surfaces and the Christoffel duals of 1-sheeted hyperboloids we introduce para-holomorphic elliptic fu…

This paper develops basic setting for the dual Orlicz-Brunn-Minkowski theory for star bodies. An Orlicz $\varphi$-radial addition of two or more star bodies is proposed and related dual Orlicz-Brunn-Minkowski inequality is established. Based on a linear Orlicz $\varphi$-radial addition of two star bodies, we derive a f…

We give sharp upper bounds on the maximal injectivity radius of finite-area hyperbolic surfaces and use them, for each g at least 2, to identify a constant r_{g-1,2} with the property that the set of closed genus-g hyperbolic surfaces with maximal injectivity radius at least r is compact if and only if r > r_{g-1,2}. T…

We study the totally null surfaces of the neutral Kaehler metric on certain 4-manifolds. The tangent spaces of totally null surfaces are either self-dual ($α$-planes) or anti-self-dual ($β$-planes) and so we consider $α$-surfaces and $β$-surfaces. The metric of the examples we study, which include the spaces of oriente…

We solve the analogue of Björling's problem for Willmore surfaces via a harmonic map representation. For the umbilic-free case the problem and solution are as follows: given a real analytic curve $y_0$ in $S^3$, together with the prescription of the values of the surface normal and the dual Willmore surface along the c…

We review recent results on classifying complete constant mean curvature 1 (CMC 1) surfaces in hyperbolic 3-space with low total curvature. There are two natural notions of "total curvature" -- one is the total absolute curvature, which is the integral over the surface of the absolute value of the Gaussian curvature, a…
