  • Compute curvature and torsion using the Frenet–Serret frame.
  • Compute the first and second fundamental forms and the Gaussian curvature of standard surfaces.
  • State the Theorema Egregium and the Gauss–Bonnet theorem and check them on spheres and tori.

تعريف

  • The curvature of a unit-speed curve γ is κ = |γ″|.
  • The Gaussian curvature K of a surface at a point is the product of its principal curvatures.
  • A geodesic on a surface is a curve whose acceleration is everywhere normal to the surface.

مبرهنة

  • Theorema Egregium: Gaussian curvature depends only on the first fundamental form, so it is intrinsic.
  • Gauss–Bonnet: for a compact oriented surface S without boundary, ∫_S K dA = 2πχ(S).
  • No map from an open region of a sphere to the plane preserves all distances, because their Gaussian curvatures differ.

مفاهيم خاطئة شائعة

  • Thinking a cylinder is curved in the Gaussian sense; its Gaussian curvature is zero.
  • Confusing the curvature of a curve with the Gaussian curvature of a surface.
