The Darboux system and embedding problems in three-dimensional Riemannian spaces (Q1123425): Difference between revisions

We consider a three-dimensional Riemannian space \(\hat M\) of constant curvature \(\hat K\) and a Riemannian manifold M homeomorphic to the disc \(D\subset {\mathbb{R}}^ 2\) with intrinsic curvature K. For \(K>\hat K\) and a boundary \(\partial M\) of nonnegative geodesic curvature, we solve the associated Darboux system (with an additional technical assumption in the elliptic case \(\hat K>0)\) and get an isometric embedding of M in \(\hat M.\)
