Example of Bianchi Transformation of Kuen’s Surface
The work is devoted to the study of the Bianchi transformation for surfaces of constant negative Gaussian curvature. The surfaces of rotation of constant negative Gaussian curvature are the Minding top, the Minding coil, and the pseudosphere (Beltrami surface). Surfaces of constant negative Gaussian curvature also include Kuen’s surface and the Dini’s surface. Studying the surfaces of constant negative Gaussian curvature (pseudospherical surfaces) is of great importance for the interpretation of Lobachevsky planimetry. Geometric characteristics of pseudospherical surfaces are found to be related to the theory of networks, the theory of solitons, nonlinear differential equations, and sin-Gordon equations. The sin-Gordon equation plays an important role in modern physics. Bianchi transformations make it possible to obtain new pseudospherical surfaces from a given pseudospherical surface. The Bianchi transformation for the Kuen’s surface is constructed using a mathematical software package.
