Rotational surfaces of constant astigmatism in space forms

Abstract: A surface in a Riemannian space is called of constant astigmatism if the difference between the principal radii of curvatures at each point is a constant function. In this paper we give a classification of all rotational surfaces of constant astigmatism in space forms. We also prove that the generating curves of such surfaces are critical points of a variational problem for a curvature energy. Using the description of these curves, we locally construct all rotational surfaces of constant astigmatism as the ass… Show more

“…(i) c < 1: Then a 2 = µ 1−c is well defined, and putting b 2 = a 4 µ , we conclude that (25) is exactly (15) and Corollary 2 gives that we arrive at the ellipsoid of revolution (13). In particular, if c = 0, we obtain the sphere of radius √ µ.…”

“…For our purposes, recalling Corollary 2, we need to compute the geometric linear momentum of the ellipsoid (13). We parametrize the generatrix semiellipse by x = a cos t, z = b sin t, t ∈ [−π/2, π/2], and using Remark 1, it is not difficult to conclude that…”

“…However, the complete classification of rotational linear Weingarten surfaces has not been achieved surprisingly until 2020 in [LP20a]. Some other interesting rotational Weingarten surfaces have been also recently studied in [LP20b] and [LP20c]. We refer to [KS05] (and references therein) for the study of closed rotational Weingarten surfaces satisfying κ 1 = c κ 2n+1 2 , generalizing results of Hopf [H51] when n = 0 and the case of ellipsoids of revolution when n = 1.…”

“…This energy was introduced in [24] in order to study rotational surfaces of constant astigmatism in Riemannian 3-space forms. Moreover, by studying some geometric properties of critical curves and the closure condition, in the same paper it was proved that the only closed critical curves with non-constant curvature appear in S 2 (ρ).…”
