Study isotropic curves on complex quadric with geometric relations.

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

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 curves in the simply isotropic and pseudo-isotropic 3-spaces, which are examples of Cayley-Klein geometries whose absolute figure is given by a plane at infinity and a degenerate quadric. Motivated by the success of rotation minimizing (RM) frames in Eucli…

We classify translation surfaces in isotropic geometry with arbitrary constant isotropic Gaussian and mean curvature under the condition that at least one of translating curves lies in a plane.

This work extends holomorphic surface representations to isotropic space.

Study minimal rational curves on complex manifolds with isotropic VMRT.

There exist four non-equivalent types of the translation hypersurfaces in the 4-dimensional isotropic space $\mathbb{I}^{4}$ generated by translating the curves lying in perpendicular $k-$planes $\left(k=2,3\right)$, due to its absolute figure. In arbitrary dimensional case; constant Gauss-Kronecker and mean curvature …

The paper proves rigidity results for non-positively curved homogeneous Finsler metrics.

The isotropic 3-space I^3 which is one of the Cayley--Klein spaces is obtained from the Euclidean space by substituting the usual Euclidean distance with the isotropic distance. In the present paper, we give several classifications on the surfaces in I^3 with the constant relative curvature (analogue of the Gaussian cu…

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

We study invariant surfaces generated by one-parameter subgroups of simply and pseudo isotropic rigid motions. Basically, the simply and pseudo isotropic geometries are the study of a three-dimensional space equipped with a rank 2 metric of index zero and one, respectively. We show that the one-parameter subgroups of i…

The paper studies hanging chains and surfaces in degenerate geometries.

In this study, we deal with the local structure of curves and surfaces immersed in a pseudo-isotropic space I_{p}^{3} that is a particular Cayley-Klein space. We provide the formulas of curvature, torsion and Frenet trihedron in order for spacelike and timelike curves. The causal character of all admissible surfaces in…

We use the isotropic projection of Laguerre geometry in order to establish a correspondence between plane curves and null curves in the Minkowski $3$-space. We describe the geometry of null curves (Cartan frame, pseudo-arc parameter, pseudo-torsion, pairs of associated curves) in terms of the curvature of the correspon…

We revisit the contact measures introduced by Firey, and further developed by Schneider and Teufel, from the perspective of the theory of valuations on manifolds. This reveals a link between the kinematic formulas for area measures studied by Wannerer and the integral geometry of curved isotropic spaces. As an applicat…

To each non-isotropic almost-complex immersion of a 2-torus into $S ^ 6$ we associate an algebraic curve, called the spectral curve, and a linear flow in the intersection of two Prym varieties on this spectral curve. We show that generically the spectral curve is smooth and compute the dimension of the moduli space o…

We consider a pseudo-Riemannian metric that changes signature along a smooth curve on a surface, called the discriminant curve. The discriminant curve separates the surface locally into a Riemannian and a Lorentzian domain. We study the local behaviour and properties of geodesics at a point on the discriminant where th…

Wintgen ideal submanifolds in space forms are those ones attaining equality pointwise in the so-called DDVV inequality which relates the scalar curvature, the mean curvature and the scalar normal curvature. Using the framework of Moebius geometry, we show that in the codimension two case, the mean curvature sphere of t…

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…

The abstract proves properties of Berwald spaces with non-zero flag curvature.

We consider the projective Finsler metrizability problem: under what conditions the solutions of a given system of second-order ordinary differential equations (SODE) coincide with the geodesics of a Finsler metric, as oriented curves. SODEs with isotropic curvature have already been thoroughly studied in the literatur…

In this paper, we find a holomorphic Darboux chart around any immersed noncompact holomorphic Legendrian curve in a complex contact manifold $(X,ξ)$. By using such a chart, we show that every holomorphic Legendrian immersion $R\to X$ from an open Riemann surface can be approximated on relatively compact subsets by holo…

We prove that Ricci flows with almost maximal extinction time must be nearly round, provided that they have positive isotropic curvature when crossed with $\mathbb{R}^{2}$. As an application, we show that positively curved metrics on $S^{3}$ and $RP^{3}$ with almost maximal width must be nearly round.

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 paper classifies Willmore 2-spheres in $S^n$.

The $\hat B_n^{(1)}$-hierarchy is constructed from the standard splitting of the affine Kac-Moody algebra $\hat B_n^{(1)}$, the Drinfeld-Sokolov $\hat B_n^{(1)}$-KdV hierarchy is obtained by pushing down the $\hat B_n^{(1)}$-flows along certain gauge orbit to a cross section of the gauge action. In this paper, we (1) u…

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}{…

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…

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 study the geometry of manifolds with vector cross product and its complexification. First we develop the theory of instantons and branes and study their deformations. For example they are (i) holomorphic curves and Lagrangian submanifolds in symplectic manifolds and (ii) associative submanifolds and co…

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 1910 E. Cartan constructed a canonical frame and found the most symmetric case for maximally nonholonomic rank 2 distributions in $\mathbb R^5$. We solve the analogous problem for germs of generic rank 2 distributions in ${\mathbb R}^n$ for n>5. We use a completely different approach based on the symplectification o…
