Discretizing constant curvature surfaces via loop group factorizations: The discrete sine- and sinh-Gordon equations (Q1913688)

The authors apply loop factorizations and the corresponding dressing actions to the sine-Gordon equation, which describes negative constant Gauss curvature surfaces (K-surfaces), to obtain integrable discrete K-surfaces. The same technique is used to rise discrete constant mean curvature surfaces starting from the corresponding sinh-Gordon equation.
