Abstract: We study generic conformally flat (analytic-)hypersurfaces in the Euclidean

4

-space

m a t h b b R^{4}

. Such a local-hypersurface is obtained as an evolution of surfaces issuing from a certain surface in

m a t h b b R^{4}

, and then, in consequence, the original surface is a (principal-)curvature surface of the hypersurface. The Poincar'{e} metric

{c h e c k g}_{H}

of the upper half plane leads to a

6

-dimensional set of singular (analytic-)Riemannian

2

-metrics

g_{0}

of

m a t h b b R^{2}

: on a simply connected open set in the regular domain of

g_{0}

, a curvature surface with the metric

g_{0}

is determined. In this paper, we choose a suitable singular metric

g_{0}

for

{c h e c k g}_{H}

and clarify the structure of the curvature surfaces: the curvature surfaces extend analytically to what kind set of

m a t h b b R^{2}

beyond the regular set of

g_{0}

; we explicitly catch the singularities and the points of infinity of

g_{0}

for the surface. In this case, all principal curvature lines in the extended surface are expressed by a frame field of

m a t h b b R^{4}

induced on the surface from hypersurfaces and they lie on some standard

2

-spheres

m a t h b b S^{2}

, respectively. We also provide a general method of constructing an approximation of such frame fields, and obtain the figures of those lines including the singular points of

g_{0}

.
