From Normal Surfaces to Normal Curves to Geodesics on Surfaces
2017
Axioms
This paper gives a study of a two dimensional version of the theory of normal surfaces; namely, a study o normal curves and their relations with respect to geodesic curves. ...
This study results with a nice discrete approximation of geodesics embedded in a triangulated orientable Riemannian surface. Experimental results of the two dimensional case are given as well. ...
We will show that this method gives rise to a flow under which a normal curve converges to a geodesic. Let C be a rectifiable curve on a triangulated Riemannian surface (Σ, T , g). ...

Normal Congruences Determined by Centers of Geodesic Curvature
1913
American Journal of Mathematics
In that proof t was measured from (-R2, 0, 0) to any normal surface of the congruence and was given by dt R2dR2 If the distance is to be measured from P1, to t must be added the distance from (-R2, , 0 ...
The distances from M to the two centers of geodesic curvature of the parametric curves are constant; hence the distance from either of these centers to P1 is constant. But in ? ...

What is an Almost Normal Surface
[article]
2012
arXiv
pre-print
We explain how almost normal surfaces emerged naturally from the study of geodesics and minimal surfaces. ...
Analogous patterns of normal and almost normal surfaces led Rubinstein to an algorithm for recognizing the 3-sphere. ...
For curves on a surface, the analog of a geodesic then becomes a special type of normal curve. ...

Recurrent Geodesics on a Surface of Negative Curvature
1921
Transactions of the American Mathematical Society
Each of these funnels will be cut off from the rest of the surface along a simple closed curve. These curves will be taken sufficiently remote on the funnels to be entirely distinct from one another. ...
There is a one to one correspondence between the set of all geodesies lying wholly on S, and the set of all unending reduced curves, in which each geodesic corresponds to that unending reduced curve that ...

Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society
Let r be any curve of a surface S and P be any point of T ; let cô be the angle measured from the positive direction of the principal normal to T at P to the positive direction of the normal to S at P, ...
If on the other hand any curve is given, a "surface band," that is, the curve and the normal to a surface at each point of the curve, is determined by a solution ü of this equation such that the given ...
Since the spherical representation of a minimal surface is conformai, J \\r g = db V-K sin 2\p for any curve on such a surface, where \f/ is the angle of the tangent to the curve and the tangent to either ...

Polar Isodistance Curves on Parametric Surfaces
[chapter]
2002
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
To this aim, two different sets of characteristic curves are considered: the normal section curves and the geodesic curves. ...
In this paper, a new method for interrogation of parametric surfaces is introduced. The basic idea is to consider the distance measured on certain curves on a surface as an interrogation tool. ...
Firstly, we introduce two new families of characteristic curves on a surface: the normal section curves and the geodesic curves. ...

Congruences Associated with a One-Parameter Family of Curves

American Journal of Mathematics
If S1 is the other focal surface of the normal congruence of tangents to the geodesic systein, the curves u=const. on S are geodesics and the curves v=const. are their conjugates.* Hence, by Theorem 3, ...
Conversely, curves on a surface, which lie also on spheres orthogonal to the surface, are lines of curvature of constant geodesic curvature. ...
