In the present work, the notion of generalized Cheng–Yau 1-type Gauss map is proposed, which is similar to the idea of generalized 1-type Gauss maps. Based on this concept, the surfaces of revolution and the canal surfaces in the Euclidean three-space are classified. First of all, we show that the Gauss map of any surfaces of revolution with a unit speed profile curve is of generalized Cheng–Yau 1-type. At the same time, an oriented canal surface has a generalized Cheng–Yau 1-type Gauss map if, and only if, it is an open part of a surface of revolution or a torus.

In this work, we study the canal surfaces foliated by pseudo spheres S12 along a Frenet curve in terms of their Gauss maps in Minkowski 3-space. Such kind of surfaces with pointwise 1-type Gauss maps are classified completely. For example, the canal surface with proper pointwise 1-type Gauss map of the first kind if and only if it is a part of a minimal surface of revolution.

AbstractWe elucidate the geometric background of function-theoretic properties for the Gauss maps of several classes of immersed surfaces in three-dimensional space forms, for example, minimal surfaces in Euclidean three-space, improper affine spheres in the affine three-space, and constant mean curvature one surfaces and flat surfaces in hyperbolic three-space. To achieve this purpose, we prove an optimal curvature bound for a specified conformal metric on an open Riemann surface and give some applications. We also provide unicity theorems for the Gauss maps of these classes of surfaces.

AbstractDelaunay surfaces are investigated by using a moving frame approach. These surfaces correspond to surfaces of revolution in the Euclidean three-space. A set of basic one-forms is defined. Moving frame equations can be formulated and studied. Related differential equations which depend on variables relevant to the surface are obtained. For the case of minimal and constant mean curvature surfaces, the coordinate functions can be calculated in closed form. In the case in which the mean curvature is constant, these functions can be expressed in terms of Jacobi elliptic functions.

In this article, we establish a new estimate for the Gaussian curvature of open Riemann surfaces in Euclidean three-space with a specified conformal metric regarding the uniqueness of the holomorphic maps of these surfaces. As its applications, we give new proofs on the unicity problems for the Gauss maps of various classes of surfaces, in particular, minimal surfaces in Euclidean three-space, constant mean curvature one surfaces in the hyperbolic three-space, maximal surfaces in the Lorentz–Minkowski three-space, improper affine spheres in the affine three-space and flat surfaces in the hyperbolic three-space.

There is reviewed the construction of a rational blending surface between cylinders and cones in some interlocation cases. This surface is constructed as a patch of rolling ball envelope, i.e. as a patch of tangent canal surface of rational-variable radius. This construction defines rational parameterization of a blending surface. The constructed surface is Laguerre invariant.

Let Φ be a regular closed C2 curve on a sphere S in Euclidean three-space. Let H(S)[H(Φ) ] denote the convex hull of S[Φ]. For any point p ∈ H(S), let O(p) be the set of points of Φ whose osculating plane at each of these points passes through p.1. THEOREM ([8]). If Φ has no multiple points and p ∈ H(Φ), then |0(p) | ≧ 3[4] when p is [is not] a vertex of Φ.2. THEOREM ( [9]). a) If the only self intersection point of Φ is a doublepoint and p ∈ H(Φ) is not a vertex of Φ, then |O(p)| ≧ 2.b) Let Φ possess exactly n vertices. Then(1)|O(p)| ≦ nforp ∈ H(S) and(2)if the osculating plane at each vertex of Φ meets Φ at exactly one point, |O(p)| = n if and only if p ∈ H(Φ) is not vertex.

The study of regular skew polyhedra was initiated in 1926 by Petrie's discovery of two infinite polyhedra in Euclidean three-space E3 which were free of false vertices; the only other regular skew polyhedron in E3 was found by Coxeter (1, pp. 33-34). The simplest of these is denoted {4, 6 | 4} and is derived from the space-filling of cubes by omitting half the faces.
