The Geometry of Bezier Curves in Minkowski 3−Space
The scope of this paper is to look at some aspects of the differential geometry of Bezier curves in Minkowski space. For that purpose, we firstly introduce Frenet Bezier curve in Minkowski 3-space.

Geometric realizations of curvature models by manifolds with constant scalar curvature [PDF]
We show any Riemannian curvature model can be geometrically realized by a manifold with constant scalar curvature. We also show that any pseudo-Hermitian curvature model, para-Hermitian curvature model, hyper-pseudo-Hermitian curvature model, or hyper-para-Hermitian curvature model can be realized by a manifold with constant scalar and *-scalar ...

Liquid crystal director fields in three-dimensional non-Euclidean geometries
This paper investigates nematic liquid crystals in three-dimensional curved space, and determines which director deformation modes are compatible with each possible type of non-Euclidean geometry. Previous work by Sethna et al showed that double twist is

Riemannian Submersions Need Not Preserve Positive Ricci Curvature [PDF]
If $\pi :M\rightarrow B$ is a Riemannian Submersion and $M$ has positive sectional curvature, O'Neill's Horizontal Curvature Equation shows that $B$ must also have positive curvature. We show there are Riemannian submersions from compact manifolds with positive Ricci curvature to manifolds that have small neighborhoods of (arbitrarily) negative Ricci ...

Curvature and solidification [PDF]
A method is presented for finding the osculating circle, and thus the curvature and the normal, of a curve defined by an array of partial volumes. This method is applied, within the framework of an enthalpy formulation, to the solutions of model equations that describe the motion of a front separating ice and supercooled water.
