Clifford structures, bilegendrian surfaces, and extrinsic curvature

From MaRDI portal
(Redirected from Publication:6183206)





The author uses Clifford algebras to give a unified treatment for the study of Constant Extrinsic Curvature (CEC) surfaces in pseudo-Riemannian 3-manifolds through the notion of bilegendrian surfaces. It also gives many examples where this general framework is applied to surfaces of constant positive curvature in hyperbolic space and constant negative curvature in Euclidean space. Moreover, the author gives an elementary proof of Hilbert's theorem on the nonexistence of complete CEC surfaces with curvature equal to \((-k)\) in a 3-dimensional Riemannian space form of curvature \(c\) if \((-k)<\min(0,-c)\).
