Pleated surface

In geometry, a pleated surface is roughly a surface that may have simple folds but is not crumpled in more complicated ways. More precisely, a pleated surface is an isometry from a complete hyperbolic surface S to a hyperbolic 3-fold such that every point of S is in the interior of a geodesic that is mapped to a geodesic. They were introduced by , 8.8), where they were called uncrumpled surfaces. The Universal Book of Mathematics provides the following information about pleated surfaces: It is a surface in Euclidean space or hyperbolic space that resembles a polyhedron in the sense that it has flat faces that meet along edges. Unlike a polyhedron, a pleated surface has no corners, but it may have infinitely many edges that form a lamination. (Wikipedia).

MATH331: Riemann Surfaces - part 1

We define what a Riemann Surface is. We show that PP^1 is a Riemann surface an then interpret our crazy looking conditions from a previous video about "holomorphicity at infinity" as coming from the definition of a Riemann Surface.

This video follows on from DiffGeom21: An Introduction to surfaces, starting with ruled surfaces. These were studied by Euler, and Monge gave examples of how such surfaces arose from the study of curves, namely as polar developables. A developable surface is a particularly important and us

Complex surfaces 4: Ruled surfaces

This talk gives an informal survey of ruled surfaces and their role in the Enriques classification. We give a few examples of ruled surfaces, summarize the basic invariants of surfaces, and sketch how one classifies the surfaces of Kodaira dimension minus infinity.

What is the difference between convex and concave

👉 Learn about polygons and how to classify them. A polygon is a plane shape bounded by a finite chain of straight lines. A polygon can be concave or convex and it can also be regular or irregular. A concave polygon is a polygon in which at least one of its interior angles is greater than 1
