1 DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRY HW 4 CLAY SHONKWILER Show that a catenoid and helicoid are locally isometric. 3 Proof. Let X(u, v) = (a cosh v cos u, a cosh v sin u, av) be the parametrization of the catenoid and let Y (z, w) = (w cos z, w sin z, az) be the parametrization of the helicoid, where 0 < u, z < 2π and < v, w <. Now, let z = u and let w = a sinh v, which is valid since the map (u, v) (u, a sinh v) is smooth and bijective on the region where u and v are defined. Then the change-of-coordinate matrix is given by ( a cosh v so the Jacobian of this coordinate change is given by the determinant of this matrix, a cosh v, which is everywhere nonzero. In other words, this change of coordinates induces a local diffeomorphism between these surfaces. Hence, a new parametrization of the helicoid is Now, ), Y (u, v) = (a sinh v cos u, a sinh v sin u, au). Y u = ( a sinh v sin u, a sinh v cos u, a) Y v = (a cosh v cos u, a cosh v sin u, 0), so the terms of the first fundamental form of the reparametrized helicoid are given by E = Y u, Y u = a 2 sinh 2 v + a 2 = a 2 (sinh 2 v + 1) = a 2 cosh 2 v F = Y u, Y v = a 2 sinh v cosh v sin u cos u + a 2 sinh v cosh v sin u cos u = 0 G = Y v, Y v = a 2 cosh 2 v On the other hand, X u = ( a cosh v sin u, a cosh v cos u, 0) X v = (a sinh v cos u, a sinh v sin u, a), 1
2 2 CLAY SHONKWILER so the terms of the first fundamental form of the catenoid are given by E = X u, X u = a 2 cosh 2 v F = X u, X v = a 2 sinh v cosh v sin u cos u + a 2 sinh v cosh v sin u cos u = 0 G = X v, X v = a 2 sinh 2 v + a 2 = a 2 (sinh 2 v + 1) = a 2 cosh 2 v. Therefore, the local diffeomorphism induced by the change of coordinates described above preserves the first fundamental form. Since the First Fundamental Form is just a repackaging of the metric on a surface, this means that this local diffeomorphism preserves the metric, so the helicoid and catenoid are locally isometric. Show that 4 X uu, X u = 1 2 E u, X uu, X v = F u 1 2 E v X uv, X u = 1 2 E v, X uv, X v = 1 2 G u X vv, X u = F v 1 2 G u, X vv, X v = 1 2 G v. Proof. Note that E u = X uu, X u + X u, X uu, so X uu, X u = 1 2 E u. Also, E v = X uv, X u + X u, X uv, so X uv, X u = 1 2 E v. Now, G u = X vu, X v + X v, X vu, so X uv, X v = 1 2 G u. Also, G v = X vv, X v + X v, X vv so X vv, X v = 1 2 G v. Now, F u = X uu, X v + X u, X vu and F v = X uv, X v + X u, X vv, so F v 1 2 G u = X uv, X v + X u, X vv X uv, X v = X vv, X u and F u 1 2 E v = X uu, X v + X uv, X u X uv, X u = X uu, X v.
3 DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRY HW Compute the Christoffel symbols Γ k ij for a surface of revolution parametrized by X(u, v) = (f(v) cos u, f(v) sin u, g(v)) with f(v) 0. Answer: If the surface is given by X(u, v) = (f(v) cos u, f(v) sin u, g(v)), then Hence X u = ( f(v) sin u, f(v) cos u, 0) X v = (f (v) cos u, f (v) sin u, g (v)). E = X u, X u = f(v) 2 sin 2 u + f(v) 2 cos 2 u = f(v) 2 F = X u, X v = f(v)f (v) sin u cos u + f(v)f (v) sin u cos u = 0 G = X v, X v = f (v) 2 cos 2 u + f (v) 2 sin 2 u + g (v) 2 = (f (v)) 2 + (g (v)) 2. Hence, E u = 0 F u = 0 G u = 0 E v = 2f(v)f (v) F v = 0 G v = 2f (v)f (v) + 2g (v)g (v) Using the defining equations of the Christoffel symbols: 0 = 1 2 E u = Γ 1 11E + Γ 2 11F = Γ 1 11f(v) 2 f(v)f (v) = F u 1 2 E v = Γ 1 11F + Γ 2 11G = Γ 2 11[(f (v)) 2 + (g (v)) 2 ] f(v)f (v) = 1 2 E v = Γ 1 12E + Γ 2 12F = Γ 1 12f(v) 2 0 = 1 2 G u = Γ 1 12F + Γ 2 12G = Γ 2 12[(f (v)) 2 + (g (v)) 2 ] 0 = F v 1 2 G u = Γ 1 22E + Γ 2 22F = Γ 1 22f(v) 2 f (v)f (v) + g (v)g (v) = 1 2 G v = Γ 1 22F + Γ 2 22G = Γ 2 22[(f (v)) 2 + (g (v)) 2 ] Hence, Γ 1 11 = 0 Γ2 11 = f(v)f (v) (f (v)) 2 +(g (v)) 2 Γ 1 12 = f (v) f(v) Γ 2 12 = 0 Γ 1 22 = 0 Γ2 22 = f (v)f (v)+g (v)g (v) (f (v)) 2 +(g (v)) 2
4 4 CLAY SHONKWILER 6 (a): Consider the equation A 1 = 0, which comes from the equation (X uu ) v (X uv ) u = 0 by setting the coefficients of X u equal to 0. Show that this yields Γ 1 12,u Γ 1 11,v + Γ 2 12Γ 1 12 Γ 2 11Γ 1 22 = F K. If F 0, this also shows that the Gaussian curvature depends only on the first fundamental form. Proof. Using the values of (X uu ) v and (X uv ) u already computed, we know that the coefficients of X u for them are Γ 1 11,v + Γ1 11 Γ Γ 2 11 Γ1 22 +ea 12 and Γ 1 12,u +Γ1 12 Γ1 11 +Γ2 12 Γ1 12 +fa 11, respectively. Hence, equating these coefficients, we see that ea 12 fa 11 = Γ 1 12,u + Γ 1 12Γ Γ 2 12Γ 1 12 Γ 1 11,v Γ 1 11Γ 1 12 Γ 2 11Γ On the other hand, Hence, ea 12 fa 11 = e(gf fg) f(ff eg) = egf f 2 F = F eg f 2 = F K. F K = Γ 1 12,u + Γ 1 12Γ Γ 2 12Γ 1 12 Γ 1 11,v Γ 1 11Γ 1 12 Γ 2 11Γ (b): Consider the equation C 1 = 0, which comes from the equation (X uu ) v (X uv ) u = 0 by setting the coefficient of N equal to 0. Show that this yields e v f u = eγ f(γ 2 12 Γ 1 11) gγ This is one of the two Mainardi-Codazzi equations. Proof. Again using the values of (X uu ) v and (X uv ) u already computed, we know that the coefficients of N for them are Γ 1 11 f +Γ2 11 g + e v and Γ 1 12 e + Γ2 12 f + f u, respectively. Hence, equating these coefficients yields e v f u = Γ 1 12e + Γ 2 12f Γ 1 11f Γ 2 11g = eγ f(γ 2 12 Γ 1 11) gγ 2 11.

Show that both of these equations again give the Gauss Formula for the Gaussian curvature K. Proof. Note that (X vv ) u = Γ 1 22,uX u + Γ 1 22X uu + Γ 2 22,uX v + Γ 2 22X uv + g u N + gn u = ( Γ 1 22,u + Γ 1 22Γ Γ 2 22Γ ga 11 ) Xu and + ( Γ 2 22,u + Γ 1 22Γ Γ 2 22Γ ga 21 ) Xv + ( Γ 1 22e + Γ 2 22f + g u ) N (X uv ) v = Γ 1 12,vX u + Γ 1 12X uv + Γ 2 12,vX v + Γ 2 12X vv + f v N + fn v = ( Γ 1 12,v + Γ 1 12Γ Γ 2 12Γ fa 12 ) Xu + ( Γ 2 12,v + Γ 1 12Γ Γ 2 12Γ fa 22 ) Xv + ( Γ 1 12f + Γ 2 12g + f v ) N Thus, by equating the coefficients on X u, ga 11 fa 12 = Γ 1 22,u + Γ 1 22Γ Γ 2 22Γ 1 12 Γ 1 12,v Γ 1 12Γ 1 12 Γ 2 12Γ On the other hand, Hence, ga 11 fa 12 = g(ff eg) f(gf fg) = f 2 G egg = G eg f 2 = GK. GK = Γ 1 22,u + Γ 1 22Γ Γ 2 22Γ 1 12 Γ 1 12,v Γ 1 12Γ 1 12 Γ 2 12Γ Equating the coefficients on X v, we see that ga 21 fa 22 = Γ 2 22,u + Γ 1 22Γ Γ 2 22Γ 2 12 Γ 2 12,v Γ 1 12Γ 2 12 Γ 2 12Γ On the other hand, ga 21 fa 22 = g(ef fe) f(ff ge) = egf f 2 F = F eg f 2 = F K.
6 6 CLAY SHONKWILER Hence, F K = Γ 2 22,u + Γ 1 22Γ Γ 2 22Γ 2 12 Γ 2 12,v Γ 1 12Γ 2 12 Γ 2 12Γ (d): Consider the equation C 2 = 0, which comes from the equation (X vv ) u (X uv ) v = 0 by setting the coefficient of N equal to 0. Show that this yields f v g u = eγ f(γ 2 22 Γ 1 12) gγ This is the second of the two Mainardi-Codazzi equations. Proof. From our computation of (X vv ) u and (X uv ) v in (b) above, we know that setting the coefficients of N in each equal yields f v g u = Γ 1 22e + Γ 2 22f Γ 1 12f Γ 2 12g = eγ f(γ 2 22 Γ 1 12) gγ (e): Do the same for the coefficients A 3, B 3 and C 3 of the third equation (N u ) v = (N v ) u. Show that the equations A 3 = 0 and B 3 = 0 yield again the two Mainardi-Codazzi equations, and that the equation C 3 = 0 is an identity. Proof. Note that (N u ) v = a 11,v X u + a 11 X uv + a 21,v X v + a 21 X vv = ( a 11,v + a 11 Γ a 21 Γ 1 22) Xu and + ( a 21,v + a 11 Γ a 21 Γ 2 22) Xv +(a 11 f + a 21 g)n (N v ) u = a 12,u X u + a 12 X uu + a 22,u X v + a 22 X uv = ( a 12,u + a 12 Γ a 22 Γ 1 12) Xu + ( a 22,u + a 12 Γ a 22 Γ 2 12) Xv +(a 12 e + a 22 f)n Equating the coefficients of X u yields a 11,v a 12,u = a 12 Γ a 22 Γ 1 12 a 11 Γ 1 12 a 21 Γ 1 22 = Γ1 11 (gf fg) + Γ1 12 (ff ge) Γ1 12 (ff eg) Γ1 22 (ef fe) = Γ1 11 (gf fg) + Γ1 12 (eg ge) + Γ1 22 (fe ef ).

(a): Show that such a surface would have Gaussian curvature K 1. Proof. Recall that K = eg f 2 = cos2 u cos 2 u = 1. (b): Compute the Christoffel symbols for such a surface. Answer: Using the defining equations of the Christoffel symbols, 0 = 1 2 E u = Γ 1 11E + Γ 2 11F = Γ = F u 1 2 E v = Γ 1 11F + Γ 2 11G = Γ = 1 2 E v = Γ 1 12E + Γ 2 12F = Γ 1 12 sin u cos u = 1 2 G u = Γ 1 12F + Γ 2 12G = Γ 2 12 cos 2 u sin u cos u = F v 1 2 G u = Γ 1 22E + Γ 2 22F = Γ = 1 2 G v = Γ 1 22F + Γ 2 22G = Γ 2 22 cos 2 u Hence, Γ 1 11 = 0 Γ2 11 = 0 Γ 1 12 = 0 Γ2 12 = sin u cos u = tan u Γ 1 22 = sin u cos u Γ2 22 = 0 (c): Show that such a surface would satisfy the Gauss formula.
8 8 CLAY SHONKWILER Proof. The Gauss Formula is 1 = EK = Γ 1 12Γ Γ 2 12,u + Γ 2 12Γ 2 12 Γ 1 11Γ 2 12 Γ 2 11,v Γ 2 11Γ 2 22 = sec 2 u + tan 2 u, which is an identity, since tan 2 u + 1 = sec 2 u. Thus, the surface satisfies the Gauss formula. (d): Show that such a surface would satisfy the first Mainardi-Codazzi equation, but violate the second one. Conclude that no such surface exists. Proof. The first Mainardi-Codazzi equation is 0 = e v f u = eγ f(γ 2 12 Γ 1 11) gγ 2 11 = e(0) + 0(Γ 2 12 Γ 1 11) g(0) = 0. The second Mainardi-Codazzi equation, if it held, would be 0 = f v g u = eγ f(γ 2 22 Γ 1 12) gγ 2 12 = cos 3 u sin u + tan u. If this holds, then, dividing by tan u, we would have that cos 4 u+1 = 0, which is clearly impossible since cos 4 u 0, so cos 4 u Therefore, since the second Mainardi-Codazzi equation does not hold, no surface with E, F, G and e, f, g as given exists. 9 In this problem, we will see how the Mainardi-Codazzi equations simplify when the coordinate neighborhood contains no umbilical points and the coordinate curves are lines of curvature (F = 0 and f = 0). (a): Show that in such a case, the Mainardi-Codazzi equations may be written as e v = eγ 1 12 gγ 2 11 and g u = gγ 2 12 eγ Proof. The first Mainardi-Codazzi equation is, in this situation, e v = e v f u = eγ f(γ 2 12 Γ 1 11) gγ 2 11 = eγ 1 12 gγ The second Mainardi-Codazzi equation is g u = f v g u = eγ f(γ 2 22 Γ 1 12) gγ 2 12 = eγ 1 22 gγ 2 12, so g u = gγ 2 12 eγ1 22. (b): Show also that Γ 2 11 = E v /2G Γ 1 12 = E v /2E Γ 1 22 = G u /2E Γ 2 12 = G u /2G.
9 DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRY HW 4 9 Proof. Using the defining equations of the Christoffel equations, Hence, 1 2 E u = Γ 1 11E + Γ 2 11F = Γ 1 11E 1 2 E v = F u 1 2 E v = Γ 1 11F + Γ 2 11G = Γ 2 11G 1 2 E v = Γ 1 12E + Γ 2 12F = Γ 1 12E 1 2 G u = Γ 1 12F + Γ 2 12G = Γ 2 12G 1 2 G u = F v 1 2 G u = Γ 1 22E + Γ 2 22F = Γ 1 22E 1 2 G v = Γ 1 22F + Γ 2 22G = Γ 2 22G Γ 1 11 = Eu 2E Γ 1 12 = Ev 2E Γ 1 22 = Gu 2E Γ 2 11 = Ev 2G Γ 2 12 = Gu 2G Γ 2 22 = Gv 2G (c): Conclude that the Mainardi-Codazzi equations take the following form: e v = 1 2 E v(e/e + g/g) and g u = 1 2 G u(e/e + g/g). Proof. The first Mainardi-Codazzi equation is e v = eγ 1 12 gγ 2 11 = e E v 2E + g E v 2G = 1 ( e 2 E v E G) + g. The second Mainardi-Codazzi equation is g u = gγ 2 12 eγ 1 22 = g G u 2G + eg u 2E = 1 ( g 2 G u G + e ). E 3 Let V and W be parallel vector fields along a curve α : I S. Show that the inner product V, W is constant along α. Conclude that the lengths V and W are also constant along α.
10 10 CLAY SHONKWILER Proof. Let V (t) = a(t)x u + b(t)x v and let W (t) = c(t)x u + d(t)x v. Note that d V, W = dv dt dt, W + V, dw dt = DV dt + (au e + av f + bu f + bv g)n, W + V, DW + (cu e + cv f + du f + dv g)n dt = (au e + av f + bu f + bv g)n, W + (cu e + cv f + du f + dv g)n = 0 since N is normal to both V and W. Thus, V, W is constant along α. Since our choices of V and W were arbitrary, we see that V 2 = V, V and W 2 = W, W are constant along α as well. 4 Let α : I S 2 parametrize a great circle at constant speed. Show that the velocity field α is parallel along α. Proof. If necessary, rotate S 2 so that the great circle in question is the equator; let β : I S 2 be the composition of α with the rotation. Since the rotation doesn t affect the velocity of α, we see that α is parallel along α if and only if β is parallel along β. Now, we can parametrize S 2 by X(u, v) = (sin v cos u, sin v sin u, cos v) for 0 u 2π and 0 v π. Then so On the other hand, β(t) = X(t, π/2) = (cos t, sin t, 0), β (t) = ( sin t, cos t, 0). X u = ( sin v sin u, sin v cos u, 0) X v = (cos v cos u, sin v sin u, sin v). Along the β, X u = ( sin t, cos t, 0) and X v = (0, 0, 1). Thus, β = X u and so, by the definition of the covariant derivative, Dβ dt = Γ 1 11X u + Γ 2 11X v. Now, recall that, on the sphere, E = 1, F = 0, G = sin 2 v, so, from the defining equations of the Christoffel symbols, so Γ 1 11 = Γ = 1 2 E u = Γ 1 11E + Γ 2 11F = Γ = F u 1 2 E v = Γ 1 11F + Γ 2 11G = Γ 2 11 sin 2 v, = 0, meaning that Dβ dt = 0.
11 DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRY HW Show that the geodesic curvature of the curve α : I S at the point α(s) is the same as the ordinary curvature at that point of the plane curve obtained by projecting α orthogonally onto the tangent plane T α(s) S. Proof. We ll find the projected curvature at the point s = s 0. If X u and X v are the standard basis for the tangent plane, re-parametrize, if necessary, such that X u (α(s 0 )), X v (α(s 0 )) forms an orthonormal basis of T α(s0 )S. Now, define β(s) := α(s), X u X u + α(s), X v X v. This is the projection of α onto the tangent plane. Now, since X u and X v are fixed, and Thus, β (s) = α (s), X u X u + α (s), X v X v β (s) = α (s), X u X u + α (s), X v X v. β (s) β (s) = ( α, X u X u + α, X v X v ) ( α, X u X u + α, X v X v ) = α, X u α, X u (X u X u ) + α, X v α, X u (X v X u ) + α, X u α, X v (X u X v ) + α, X v α, X v (X v X v ) = ( α, X u α, X v α, X v α, X u ) N since N = Xu Xv X u X v. Thus, the signed projected curvature at the point we re interested in is given by κ p = β β, N β 3 = α, X u α, X v α, X u α, X v β 3. Since β = α at this particular point and α is parametrized by arc length, the denominator here is 1. Thus, On the other hand, κ p = α, X u α, X v α, X u α, X v. κ g = α, M = α, N(α(s)) T (s) = α, X u X v X u X v α = α, X u, α X v X v, α X u = X u, α X v, α X v, α X u, α = κ p.
12 12 CLAY SHONKWILER 10 Let α : I S be a smooth curve on the regular surface S in R 3. Let κ(s) be the ordinary curvature of the curve α in R 3, let κ g (s) be its geodesic curvature on the surface S, and let k n (s) be the normal curvature of the surface S at the point α(s) in the direction α (s). Show that κ(s) 2 = κ g (s) 2 + k n (s) 2. Check this equation when α is a small circle on a round sphere. Proof. By the result we just proved in problem 9 above, we know that κ g = κ p. Since the curvature κ is the length of the vector α, this means that κ g is the length of the orthogonal projection of α onto T α(s) S. On the other hand, k n (s) is defined to be the length of the projection of α onto the normal to the surface, N(α(s)). Since N(α(s)) is perpendicular to T α(s) S, this gives an orthogonal decomposition of α. Thus, simply using the Pythagorean Theorem, κ(s) 2 = κ g (s) 2 + k n (s) Check that u = constant and v = v(t) is a solution of the geodesic equations for some choice of v(t). Answer: Equation (1) holds trivially, since u = u = 0. Also, since u = 0, the second equation reduces to Now, consider the curve v + f f + g g (f ) 2 + (g ) 2 (v ) 2 = 0. α(t) = X(u, v(t)) = (f(v(t)) cos u, f(v(t)) sin u, g(v(t))). Since α is a curve in 3-space, we can re-parametrize it by arc length. Thus, we can choose v(t) such that α is parametrized by arc length. That being the case, α (t) = (f v cos u, f v sin u, g v ); since α is parametrized by arc length, 1 = α (t) 2 = (f v ) 2 cos 2 u + (f v ) 2 sin 2 u + (g v ) 2 = (f v ) 2 + (g v ) 2. Differentiating with respect to t, this implies that 0 = 2f v (f (v ) 2 + f v ) + 2g v (g (v ) 2 + g v ) = 2 [ f f (v ) 3 + (f ) 2 v v + g g (v ) 3 + (g ) 2 v v ] = 2 [ (f f + g g )(v ) 3 + ((f ) 2 + (g ) 2 )v v ].
13 DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRY HW 4 13 Since v is certainly non-constant and f and g cannot both be constant, ((f ) 2 + (g ) 2 )v 0. Hence, dividing both sides by 2((f ) 2 + (g ) 2 )v yields 0 = f f + g g (f ) 2 + (g ) 2 (v ) 2 + v, which is equation (2). Therefore, we see that this choice of v(t) satisfies the geodesic equations. 13 Show that the curve X(u(t), v(t)) on our surface of revolution is travelled at constant speed if and only if (3) u f 2 u + v (f 2 + g 2 )v + (f f + g g )v 3 + ff u 2 v = 0. Proof. Consider X(u(t), v(t)). Then and X = (f v cos u f sin uu, f v sin u + f cos uu, g v ) X 2 = (f v ) 2 cos 2 u 2ff v u sin u cos u + (fu ) 2 sin 2 u + (f v ) 2 sin 2 u +2ff v u sin u cos u + (fu ) 2 cos 2 u + (g v ) 2 = (f v ) 2 + (fu ) 2 + (g v ) 2 Then X(u(t), v(t)) is travelled at constant speed if and only if the derivative of this expression is constant. That is, the curve is travelled at constant speed if and only if 0 = 2f v (f (v ) 2 + f v ) + 2fu (f v u + fu ) + 2g v (g (v ) 2 + g v ) = 2u f 2 u + 2v ((f ) 2 + (g ) 2 )v + 2(f f + g g )(v ) 3 + 2ff (u ) 2 v. Dividing by 2 gives the desired equation. Show that equations (1) and (2) together imply equation (3). 14 Proof. From the sum u f 2 (1) + v ((f ) 2 + (g ) 2 )(2) we have the linear combination ( 0 = u f 2 u + 2 f ) ( f u v + v ((f ) 2 + (g ) 2 ) v ff + (f ) 2 + (g ) 2 (u ) 2 + f f + g g ) (f ) 2 + (g ) 2 (v ) 2 = u f 2 u + 2v ff (u ) 2 + v v ((f ) 2 + (g ) 2 ) v ff (u ) 2 + (f f + g g )(v ) 3 = u f 2 u + v ((f ) 2 + (g ) 2 )v + (f f + g g )(v ) 3 + ff (u ) 2 v, which is equation (3).
14 14 CLAY SHONKWILER 15 Show that if f (v 0 ) = 0, then the circle u = ct and v = v 0 satisfies equations (1) and (2), and hence is a geodesic. Proof. With u and v as given and since f = 0, equation (1) reduces to Similarly, equation (2) reduces to 0 = u + 2 f f u v = c(0) = 0. f 0 = v ff + (f ) 2 + (g ) 2 (u ) 2 + f f + g g (f ) 2 + (g ) 2 (v ) 2 = 0+ 0 (g ) 2 c g g (g ) 2 (0) = Show that if v 0, then equations (1) and (3) together imply equation (2). So to get a geodesic, just satisfy equations (1) and make sure you travel at constant speed. Proof. Since f and g cannot both be constant (else we have only a circle, not a surface), (f ) 2 + (g ) 2 0. Hence, since v 0, we can safely divide by v ((f ) 2 + (g ) 2 ). Now, we know from problem 14 above that u f 2 (1) + v ((f ) 2 + (g ) 2 )(2) = (3), so, dividing both sides by v ((f ) 2 + (g ) 2 ), (2) = Therefore, (1) and (3) imply (2). u f 2 v ((f ) 2 + (g ) 2 ) (1) 1 v ((f ) 2 + (g ) 2 ) (3).
