1 MA3D9. Geometry of 2. Planar curves. Let : I R 2 be a curve parameterised by arc-length. Given s I, let T(s) = (s) be the unit tangent. Let N(s) be the unit normal obtained by rotating T(s) through π/2 anticlockwise. Now T.T = 1 and so T.T = 0. Thus we can write T (s) = κ(s)n(s), where κ(s) R. Here κ is a smooth function of s. Definition : κ is the (signed) curvature of. (We refer to κ as the unsigned curvature.) Note that κ(s) = T (s) = (s). Example : Circle of radius r. This has constant curvature 1/r. Definition : If κ 0, then ρ(s) = 1/κ(s) is the (signed) radius of curvature. The point c(s) = (s) + ρ(s)n(s) is the centre of curvature. The circle of centre c(s) and radius ρ(s) is the osculating circle. Note that for a circle, the osculating circle is constant and equal to the original curve. General formula. Suppose (t) = (x(t), y(t)) is regular (not necessarily parameterised by arc-length). Proposition 2.1 : The unsigned curvature of is given by: κ(t) = x y y x ((x ) 2 + (y ) 2 ) 3/2. Proof : Exercise. 1
2 Example : The ellipse: (t) = (a cost, b sint): κ(t) = ab (a2 + (b 2 a 2 ) cos 2 t) 3 ). What are the maximum and minimum curvatures? Remarks : (1) Unsigned curvature is invariant under (postcompositon with) rigid motion of R 2. The sign remains the same if and only if the rigid motion is orientation What are the maximum and minimum curvatures? preserving. (2) Under dilation by a factor of λ > 0, it gets multiplied by 1/λ. The tractrix. The tractrix is defined as a curve (t) = (x(t), y(t)) such that the tangent at any point (t) intercepts the y-axis at a point a unit distance away from (t). In other words: Using the formula for curvature we get: dy dx = 1 x 2. κ = x 1 x 2. Let s (s) s 0 be the arc length paramerisation, with (0) = (1, 0). Since (x ) 2 + (y ) 2 = 1, we get x = x, and so x = e s. Also Integrating: so dy 1 x ds = 2 dx x ds = 1 x 2 = 1 e 2s. y = cosh 1 (e s ) 1 e 2s (s) = (e s, cosh 1 (e s ) 1 e 2s ) κ(s) = e s / 1 e 2s. Another parametrisation, used in Section 8, is derived by taking x = sin(θ). Integrating for y (as in lectures) we get: Note that κ(θ) = tan(θ). (θ) = (sin(θ), log(tan(θ/2)) cos(θ)). 2
3 Other examples : Ellipse, cycloid etc. Closed curves. Definition : A curve : R R 2 is periodic with period t 0 > 0 if (t + t 0 ) = (t) for all t R. Example : The circle (t) = (r cos t, r sin t) has period 2π. Definition : A fundamental domain is any interval of the form [a, b] R, where b = a+t 0. Thus (a) = (b), (a) = (b), (a) = (b) etc. Remark : We can more intuitively think of as a map of the circle into R 2 gluing the endpoints a and b together to form circle. In these terms, we can refer to as a closed curve. To be more specific we can identify the circle with the unit circle in the plane, with the parameter t corresponding to the point (cos(2πt/t 0 ), sin(2πt/t 0 )) in the circle. If f(t) is any continuous periodic function in t, we can define f(t)dt = b a f(t)dt, where [a, b] is any fundamental domain. It is independent of the choice of fundamental domain. Again, we can think of it more informally as an integral over the circle. Total turning Suppose that is a regular closed curve. We write T(t) for the unit tangent. Thus T(t) = (cos θ, sinθ) for some θ R well defined up to some integer multiple of 2π. Definition : The total turning of is equal to θ (t)dt. Since θ(a) = θ(b) up to some multiple of 2π, we have that the total turning of is equal to 2πn for some n Z. Here n is called the turning number of. Examples : n = 1, 1, 0, 2 etc. Jordan curves. We state some facts which are intuitively clear, though they are more difficult to prove formally. They more properly belong in a course on topology. Definition : A (smooth) Jordan curve is a closed curve that is injective (as a map from the circle into R 2 ). 3
4 Examples : Circle, ellipse. The following, though intuitively reasonable, will not be proven in this course. Theorem 2.2 : (Smooth Schoenflies) If is a smooth Jordan curve, then there is a diffeomorphism f : R 2 R 2 sending the unit circle to. Here a diffeomorphism f is a bijective map f : R 2 R 2 such that f and f 1 are both smooth. If we think of as a map of the unit circle into R 2 then this means that f is simply an extention of : S 1 R 2. If we think of as a periodic map of period t 0, then we get (t) = f((cos(2πt/t 0 ), sin(2πt/t 0 )). Let D = {x R 2 x 1} be the unit disc. Its boundary is the unit circle, and so mapping under f we see that the image of is the boundary of Ω, where Ω = f(d). Definition : A (smooth) Jordan domain is the image of a smooth disc under some diffeomorphism of R 2. Thus, the image any smooth Jordan curve,, is the boundary of a smooth Jordan domain, Ω. We can think of Ω as the inside of. We shall sometimes write informally: = Ω. (In fact, Ω is uniquely determined by.) Note that may be positively or negatively oriented depending on whether the unit normal (as defined above) points in or out of Ω. In the former case, it has total turing 2π and in the latter case, it has total turning 2π (though we won t prove that here). We can generalise this to a piecewise smooth closed curve. This has a sequence of exterior angles, θ 1,..., θ n, in [ π, π] at the vertices where f is not differentiable. In this case, the total turning is defined as θ dt + i θ i. For example, for a polygonal curve, we have θ = 0 on all the straight segments, and so the total turning is just i θ i. Thus, for a positively oriented polygonal Jordan curve (i.e. a polygon in the traditional sense) we get the familiar formula: i θ i = 2π. Area. (We will assume the notion of integration of smooth functions over a nice subset, Ω of R 2. Thus, for example, the area of Ω can be defined by intergating the constant function 1 over Ω. The formal definitions of these concepts requires some measure theory, beyond the scope of this course. See [Measure theory course???].) Suppose that Ω is a Jordan domain with boundary the smooth Jordan curve,. We write (t) = (x(t), y(t)). Let A be the area of Ω. 4
5 Lemma 2.3 : A = y(t)x (t)dt = x(t)y (t)dt = 1 xy yx dt. 2 Proof : See lectures. Example : Circle. Remark : We have the following: Theorem : Let Ω be a Jordan domain, with boundary = Ω. Let l = length() and A = area(ω). Then A l 2 /4π, with equality if and only if is a circle. A relatively simple proof can be found for example in [C, p33]. Green s Theorem. Suppose that Ω is a Jordan domain, and = Ω is positively oriented. Suppose that P, Q : R 2 R are smooth functions. (We only really need them defined in a neighbournood of Ω.) Then: Theorem 2.4 : (Green): Px + Qy dt = Ω Q y da. Here (t) = (x(t), y(t)) R 2, and da = dx dy is the area element. Proof : See vector analysis course???. Remark : This is sometimes expressed as follows. We can view w = (P, Q) as a vector field on R 2, that is w(x, y) = (P(x, y), Q(x, y)) is the vector based at (x, y). Embedding R 2 R 3 by (x, y) (x, y, 0), its curl is: Thus, curlw.da = curlw.kda = curlw = ( 0, 0, Q w((t)). (t). Thus, Green s Theorem reduces to: w((t)). (t)dt = ). y ( ) Q y dt. Also (t) = (x (t), y (t)) so Px +Qy = Ω curl w.da for any planar vector field w. (This is Stokes s Theorem in the plane.) 5
6 Area again. Thus Set P = y and Q = x. Then Q y as before. LHS = RHS = A = 1 2 = 2. So yx + xy dt Ω 2 da = 2A. xy yx dt 6
