Curvature for Polygons

The American Mathematical Monthly, 2015
AbstractUsing a notion of curvature at the vertices of a polygon, we prove an inequality involving the length of the sides of the polygon and the radii of curvature at the vertices.

Riemann Curvature and Ricci Curvature

2012
Curvatures are the central concept in geometry. The notion of curvature introduced by B. Riemann faithfully reveals the local geometric properties of a Riemann metric. This curvature is called the Riemann curvature in Riemannian geometry. The Riemann curvature can be extended to Finsler metrics as well as the sectional curvature.

On the Curvatures of a Surface

American Journal of Mathematics, 1956
1. The smoothness of H and K. A point set 8 in the (x, y, z) -space is said to be a (small piece of a) surface of class Gn, where n ^ 1, if it is the locus of the endpoints of a vector function X = X(u,v) with three com? ponents which is defined on a two-dimensional (u, v) -domain, possesses con?

Douglas Curvature and Weyl Curvature

2001
There are two important projective invariants of sprays and Finsler metrics. One is a non-Riemannian projective invariant constructed from the Berwald curvature. The other is a Riemannian projective invariant constructed from the Riemann curvature. In this chapter, we will discuss these two projective invariants.

What is Curvature?

1997
If you’ve just completed an introductory course on differential geometry, you might be wondering where the geometry went. In most people’s experience, geometry is concerned with properties such as distances, lengths, angles, areas, volumes, and curvature.

Penile Curvatures

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1985
Penile curvatures are common. They are caused by tethering inelastic tissues that can be from the skin externally, from the congenital fibrous tissue of hypospadias and epispadias, and from inelastic tunica albuginea as in fractures, trauma, or Peyronie's disease.

Curvature of Surfaces

2001
In this chapter, we discuss several approaches to the problem of measuring how ‘curved’ a surface is. Although they use quite different methods, we show that each of the approaches leads to the same geometric object: the second fundamental form of a surface.
