a) Calculate the principal, Gaussian, and mean curvatures of the surface of revolution
σ(u, v) = (f(u) cos v, f(u) sin v, g(u)), where f, g are smooth real-valued functions
with f > 0.
b) Hence find these curvatures in the following cases:
i. f(u) = e^u, g(u) = u.
ii. f(u) = 2 + sin u, g(u) = u.
Calculate the normal and the geodesic curvatures of the following curves on
the given surfaces:
(a) The circle γ(t) = (cost, sin t, 1) on the paraboloid σ(u, v) = (u, v, u^2 + v^2).
The third fundamental form of a surface σ(u, v) is
||N̂u|| ^2 du^2 + 2N̂u.N̂v dudv + ||N̂v||^2 dv^2
where N̂ (u, v) is the standard unit normal to σ(u, v). Let FIII be the associated 2 × 2
symmetric matrix.
a) ) Show that FIII − 2HFII + KFI = 0, where K and H are the Gaussian and mean
curvatures, respectively, of σ.
Numbers and figures are an essential part of our world, necessary for almost everything we do every day. As important…
