The paper classifies surfaces with isotropic circles through each point.

The study finds compact vacuum static spaces with positive isotropic curvature are spheres or products of a circle and sphere.

A Laguerre minimal surface is an immersed surface in the Euclidean space being an extremal of the functional \int (H^2/K - 1) dA. In the present paper, we prove that the only ruled Laguerre minimal surfaces are up to isometry the surfaces R(u,v) = (Au, Bu, Cu + D cos 2u) + v (sin u, cos u, 0), where A, B, C, D are fixe…

The paper presents an extension of the geometric quantization procedure to integrable, big-isotropic structures. We obtain a generalization of the cohomology integrality condition, we discuss geometric structures on the total space of the corresponding principal circle bundle and we extend the notion of a polarization.

Self dual symmetric R-spaces have special curves, called circles, introduced by Burstall, Donaldson, Pedit and Pinkall in 2011, whose definition does not involve the choice of any Riemannian metric. We characterize the elements of the big transformation group G of a self dual symmetric R-space M as those diffeomorphism…

Study loxodromes and geodesics on rotational surfaces in pseudo-isotropic space.

Superconformal surfaces in Euclidean space are the ones for which the ellipse of curvature at any point is a nondegenerate circle. They can be characterized as the surfaces for which a well-known pointwise inequality relating the intrinsic Gauss curvature with the extrinsic normal and mean curvatures, due to Wintgen (\…

We prove that closed manifolds admitting a generic metric whose sectional curvature is locally quasi-constant are graphs of space forms. In the more general setting of QC spaces where sets of isotropic points are arbitrary, under suitable positivity assumption and for torsion-free fundamental groups they are still diff…

Consider a 2-plane $P \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ and let $D$ be a bounded region in $P$ with a piecewise-smooth boundary. Let $I(D)$ be the infimum of areas of all piecewise-smooth isotropic surfaces in $\mathbb{C}^n$ with the same boundary as $D$. Then $I(D)= λ_P^n \cdot Area(D)$. If $P$ is not complex, $λ_P^n < \frac{3π}{…

The energy minimization problem associated to uniform, isotropic, linearly elastic rods leads to a geometric variational problem for the rod centerline, whose solutions include closed, knotted curves. We give a complete description of the space of closed and quasiperiodic solutions. The quasiperiodic curves are paramet…

The study proves conditions for symplectic torus actions on manifolds with non-contractible orbits.

This paper is devoted to the study of AW(k)-type curves according to the equiform differential geometry of the pseudo-Galilean space. We show that equiform Bertrand curves are circular helices or isotropic circles of the pseudo-Galilean space. Also, there are equiform Bertrand curves of AW(3) and weak AW(3)-types. More…

Two constructions of contact manifolds are presented: (i) products of S^1 with manifolds admitting a suitable decomposition into two exact symplectic pieces and (ii) fibre connected sums along isotropic circles. Baykur has found a decomposition as required for (i) for all closed, oriented 4-manifolds. As a corollary, w…

In this paper, we find a condition on $(α, β)$-metrics under which the notions of isotropic S-curvature, weakly isotropic S-curvature and isotropic mean Berwald curvature are equivalent.

Study physical work done by isotropic vector forces along isotropic curves.

In this paper we investigate $m$-dimensional complete minimal submanifolds in Euclidean spheres with index of relative nullity at least $m-2$ at any point. These are austere submanifolds in the sense of Harvey and Lawson \cite{harvey} and were initially studied by Bryant \cite{br}. For any dimension and codimension the…

Study isotropic Riemannian maps and helices along them.

We study two types of isotropic planes: weakly isotropic and strongly isotropic planes. We prove that a Riemannian manifold of indefinite metric is conformally flat if and only if its curvature tensor vanishes on all the strongly isotropic planes. We specialize the plane axiom for Riemannian manifolds of indefinite met…

In this paper, we construct a new class of Finsler manifolds called generalized isotropic Berwald manifolds which is an extension of the class of isotropic Berwald manifolds. We prove that every generalized isotropic Berwald manifold is a generalized Douglas-Weyl manifold. On a compact generalized isotropic Berwald man…

In this paper we will show that a Lagrangian, Lorentzian surface $M^2_1$ in a complex pseudo space form $\widetilde M^2_1 (4c)$ is pseudo-isotropic if and only if $M$ is minimal. Next we will obtain a complete classification of all Lagrangian, Lorentzian surfaces which are lightlike pseudo-isotropic but not pseudo-isot…

New approach uses isotropic geometry to solve Euclidean problems.

We show that for $m>n\geq 2$, there are at least two exact isotropic $n$-tori in $\mathbb{C}^m$ which are not Hamiltonian isotopic in $\mathbb{C}^m$, even though they are smoothly isotopic as isotropic $n$-tori. We apply this discovery to obtain more distinct non-exact isotropic tori in $\mathbb{C}^m$.

This paper aims to provide a description of totally isotropic Willmore two-spheres and their adjoint transforms. We first recall the isotropic harmonic maps which are introduced by Hélein, Xia-Shen and Ma for the study of Willmore surfaces. Then we derive a description of the normalized potential (some Lie algebra valu…

Let $R^{n+1, n}$ be the vector space $R^{2n+1}$ equipped with the bilinear form $(X,Y)=X^t C_n Y$ of index $n$, where $C_n= \sum_{i=1}^{2n+1} (-1)^{n+i-1} e_{i, 2n+2-i}$. A smooth $γ: R\to R^{n+1,n}$ is {\it isotropic} if $γ, γ_x, \ldots, γ_x^{(2n)}$ are linearly independent and the span of $γ, \ldots, γ_x^{(n-1)}$ is …

In this work, we are interested in the differential geometry of surfaces in simply isotropic $\mathbb{I}^3$ and pseudo-isotropic $\mathbb{I}_{\mathrm{p}}^3$ spaces, which consists of the study of $\mathbb{R}^3$ equipped with a degenerate metric such as $\mathrm{d}s^2=\mathrm{d}x^2\pm\mathrm{d}y^2$. The investigation is…

Using an integrable discrete Dirac operator, we construct a discrete version of the Weierstrass representation of time-like surfaces parametrized along isotropic directions in $R^{2,1}$, $R^{3,1}$ and $R^{2,2}$. The corresponding discrete surfaces have isotropic edges. We show that any discrete surface satisfying a gen…

In this paper, we study the second approximate Matsumoto metric on a manifold M. We prove that F is of scalar flag curvature and isotropic S-curvature if and only if it is isotropic Berwald metric with almost isotropic flag curvature.

We consider smooth isotropic immersions from the 2-dimensional torus into $R^{2n}$, for $n \geq 2$. When $n = 2$ the image of such map is an immersed Lagrangian torus of $R^4$. We prove that such isotropic immersions can be approximated by arbitrarily $C^0$-close piecewise linear isotropic maps. If $n \geq 3$ the piece…
