Discrete Gaussian Curvature Flow for Piecewise Constant Gaussian Curvature Surface [PDF]

open access: yesCAD Computer Aided Design, 2021
Abstract A method is presented for generating a discrete piecewise constant Gaussian curvature (CGC) surface. An energy functional is first formulated so that its stationary point is the linear Weingarten (LW) surface, which has a property such that the weighted sum of mean and Gaussian curvatures is constant.

Discrete schemes for Gaussian curvature and their convergence [PDF]

open access: yesComputers and Mathematics With Applications, 2009
In this paper, several discrete schemes for Gaussian curvature are surveyed. The convergence property of a modified discrete scheme for the Gaussian curvature is considered. Furthermore, a new discrete scheme for Gaussian curvature is resented. We prove that the new scheme converges at the regular vertex with valence not less than 5.

On Gaussian curvature flow

Journal of Differential Equations, 2021
The authors study the Nirenberg problem on \(S^2\): Given a smooth function \(f:S^2\to\mathbb{R}\) which is positive somewhere, does there exist a metric \(g\) on \(S^2\) conformally equivalent to the standard metric \(g_0\) and having Gaussian curvature \(f\). The main theorem states that a solution exists under the following assumptions. (a) Critical

Gaussian Curvature, Mirrors, and Maps

The American Mathematical Monthly, 2012
We present a method to optically measure the Gaussian curvature K of a surface and show how it can be used to establish a link between surfaces with constant K and area preserving maps between a sp...

Graph Regularisation Using Gaussian Curvature

2009
This paper describes a new approach for regularising triangulated graphs. We commence by embedding the graph onto a manifold using the heat-kernel embedding. Under the embedding, each first-order cycle of the graph becomes a triangle. Our aim is to use curvature information associated with the edges of the graph to effect regularisation.
