Darboux, Bulletin des Sciences Math. Ser.~2, vol.~24, page~278, 1900.} +This memoir may be called: +\Title{General Investigations of Curved Surfaces}, or the Paper of~1827, to distinguish it +from the original draft written out in~1825, but not published until~1900. A list of +the editions and translations of the Paper of~1827 follows. There are three editions +in Latin, two translations into French, and two into German. The paper was originally +published in Latin under the title: + +I\textit{a}. \Publication{Disquisitiones generales circa superficies curvas} +{auctore Carolo Friderico Gauss\Add{.}} +{Societati regiæ oblatæ D.~8.~Octob.~1827}, \\ +and was printed in: Commentationes societatis regiæ scientiarum Gottingensis recentiores, +Commentationes classis mathematicæ. Tom.~VI. (ad~a.\ 1823--1827). Gottingæ, +1828, pages~99--146. This sixth volume is rare; so much so, indeed, that the British +Museum Catalogue indicates that it is missing in that collection. With the signatures +changed, and the paging changed to pages~1--50, I\textit{a}~also appears with the title page +added: + +I\textit{b}. \Publication{Disquisitiones generales circa superficies curvas} +{auctore Carolo Friderico Gauss.} +{Gottingæ. Typis Dieterichianis. 1828.} + +II\@. In Monge's \Title{Application de l'analyse à la géométrie}, fifth edition, edited by +Liouville, Paris, 1850, on pages 505--546, is a reprint, added by the Editor, in Latin +under the title: \Title{Recherches sur la théorie générale des surfaces courbes}; Par M. +C.-F. Gauss. +\PageSep{iv} + +III\textit{a}. A third Latin edition of this paper stands in: Gauss, \Title{Werke, Herausgegeben +von der Königlichen Gesellschaft der Wissenschaften zu Göttingen}, Vol.~4, Göttingen, +1873, pages~217--258, without change of the title of the original paper~(I\textit{a}). + +III\textit{b}. The same, without change, in Vol.~4 of Gauss, \Title{Werke}, Zweiter Abdruck, +Göttingen,~1880. + +IV\@. A French translation was made from Liouville's edition,~II, by Captain +Tiburce Abadie, ancien élève de l'École Polytechnique, and appears in Nouvelles +Annales de Mathématique, Vol.~11, Paris,~1852, pages~195--252, under the title: +\Title{Recherches générales sur les surfaces courbes}; Par M.~Gauss. This latter also +appears under its own title. + +V\textit{a}. Another French translation is: \Title{Recherches Générales sur les Surfaces +Courbes}. Par M. C.-F. Gauss, traduites en français, suivies de notes et d'études +sur divers points de la Théorie des Surfaces et sur certaines classes de Courbes, par +M. E. Roger, Paris, 1855. + +V\textit{b}. The same. Deuxième Edition. Grenoble (or Paris), 1870 (or 1871), 160~pages. + +VI\@. A German translation is the first portion of the second part, namely, pages +198--232, of: Otto Böklen, \Title{Analytische Geometrie des Raumes}, Zweite Auflage, Stuttgart, +1884, under the title (on page~198): \Title{Untersuchungen über die allgemeine Theorie +der krummen Flächen}. Von C.~F. Gauss. On the title page of the book the second +part stands as: \Title{Disquisitiones generales circa superficies curvas} von C.~F. Gauss, ins +Deutsche übertragen mit Anwendungen und Zusätzen\dots. + +VII\textit{a}. A second German translation is No.~5 of Ostwald's Klassiker der exacten +Wissenschaften: \Title{Allgemeine Flächentheorie} (\Title{Disquisitiones generales circa superficies +curvas}) von Carl Friedrich Gauss, (1827). Deutsch herausgegeben von A.~Wangerin. +Leipzig, 1889. 62~pages. + +VII\textit{b}. The same. Zweite revidirte Auflage. Leipzig, 1900. 64~pages. + +The English translation of the Paper of~1827 here given is from a copy of the +original paper,~I\textit{a}; but in the preparation of the translation and the notes all the +other editions, except~V\textit{a}, were at hand, and were used. The excellent edition of +Professor Wangerin,~VII, has been used throughout most freely for the text and +notes, even when special notice of this is not made.

This abstract is in the nature of a note on the Paper of~1827, +and is printed before the notes on that paper. + +Recently the eighth volume of Gauss's Works has appeared. This contains on +pages 408--442 the paper which Gauss wrote out, but did not publish, in~1825. This +paper may be called the \Title{New General Investigations of Curved Surfaces}, or the Paper +of~1825, to distinguish it from the Paper of~1827. The Paper of~1825 shows the +manner in which many of the ideas were evolved, and while incomplete and in some +cases inconsistent, nevertheless, when taken in connection with the Paper of~1827, +shows the development of these ideas in the mind of Gauss. In both papers are +found the method of the spherical representation, and, as types, the three important +theorems: The measure of curvature is equal to the product of the reciprocals of the +principal radii of curvature of the surface, The measure of curvature remains unchanged +by a mere bending of the surface, The excess of the sum of the angles of a geodesic +triangle is measured by the area of the corresponding triangle on the auxiliary sphere. +But in the Paper of~1825 the first six sections, more than one-fifth of the whole paper, +take up the consideration of theorems on curvature in a plane, as an introduction, +before the ideas are used in space; whereas the Paper of~1827 takes up these ideas +for space only. Moreover, while Gauss introduces the geodesic polar coordinates in +the Paper of~1825, in the Paper of~1827 he uses the general coordinates, $p$,~$q$, thus +introducing a new method, as well as employing the principles used by Monge and +others. + +The publication of this translation has been made possible by the liberality of +the Princeton Library Publishing Association and of the Alumni of the University +who founded the Mathematical Seminary. + +\Signature{H.

As the position of every point in space is determined +by three coordinates, that is to say, the distances of the point from three mutually +perpendicular fixed planes, it is necessary to consider, first of all, the directions of the +axes perpendicular to these planes. The points on the sphere, which represent these +directions, we shall denote by $(1)$,~$(2)$,~$(3)$. The distance of any one of these points +from either of the other two will be a quadrant; and we shall suppose that the directions +of the axes are those in which the corresponding coordinates increase. + + +\Article{2.} +It will be advantageous to bring together here some propositions which are frequently +used in questions of this kind. + +\Par{I.} The angle between two intersecting straight lines is measured by the arc +between the points on the sphere which correspond to the directions of the lines. + +\Par{II.}\Note{1} The orientation of any plane whatever can be represented by the great circle +on the sphere, the plane of which is parallel to the given plane. +\PageSep{4} + +\Par{III.} The angle between two planes is equal to the spherical angle between the +great circles representing them, and, consequently, is also measured by the arc intercepted +between the poles of these great circles. And, in like manner, the angle of inclination +of a straight line to a plane is measured by the arc drawn from the point which +corresponds to the direction of the line, perpendicular to the great circle which represents +the orientation of the plane. + +\Par{IV.} Letting $x$,~$y$,~$z$; $x'$,~$y'$,~$z'$ denote the coordinates of two points, $r$~the distance +between them, and $L$~the point on the sphere which represents the direction of the line +drawn from the first point to the second, we shall have +\begin{align*} +x' &= x + r \cos(1)L\Add{,} \\ +y' &= y + r \cos(2)L\Add{,} \\ +z' &= z + r \cos(3)L\Add{.} +\end{align*} + +\Par{V.} From this it follows at once that, generally,\Note{2} +\[ +\cos^{2}(1)L + \cos^{2}(2)L + \cos^{2}(3)L = 1\Add{,} +\] +and also, if $L'$~denote any other point on the sphere, +\[ +\cos(1)L·\cos(1)L' + \cos(2)L·\cos(2)L' + \cos(3)L·\cos(3)L' + = \cos LL'. +\] + +\Par{VI.}\Note{4} \begin{Theorem} +If $L$, $L'$, $L''$, $L'''$ denote four points on the sphere, and $A$~the angle +which the arcs $LL'$, $L''L'''$ make at their point of intersection, then we shall have +\[ +\cos LL''·\cos L'L''' - \cos LL'''·\cos L'L'' + = \sin LL'·\sin L''L'''·\cos A\Add{.} +\] +\end{Theorem} + +\textit{Demonstration.} Let $A$ denote also the point of intersection itself, and set +\[ +AL = t,\quad AL' = t',\quad AL'' = t'',\quad AL''' = t'''\Add{.} +\] +Then we shall have +\begin{alignat*}{7} +&\cos L L'' &&= \cos t\Chg{·}{}&& \cos t'' &&+ \sin t && \sin t'' && \cos A\Add{,} \\ +&\cos L'L''' &&= \cos t' && \cos t''' &&+ \sin t' && \sin t''' && \cos A\Add{,} \\ +&\cos L L''' &&= \cos t && \cos t''' &&+ \sin t && \sin t''' && \cos A\Add{,} \\ +&\cos L'L'' &&= \cos t' && \cos t'' &&+ \sin t' && \sin t'' && \cos A\Add{;} +\end{alignat*} +and consequently,\Note{3} +\begin{multline*} +\cos LL''·\cos L'L''' - \cos LL'''·\cos L'L'' \\ +\begin{aligned} +&= \cos A (\cos t \cos t'' \sin t' \sin t''' + + \cos t' \cos t''' \sin t \sin t'' \\ +&\qquad - \cos t \cos t''' \sin t' \sin t'' + - \cos t' \cos t'' \sin t \sin t''') \\ +&= \cos A (\cos t \sin t' - \sin t \cos t') + (\cos t'' \sin t''' - \sin t'' \cos t''')\NoteMark \\ +&= \cos A·\sin (t' - t)·\sin (t''' - t'') \\ +&= \cos A·\sin LL'·\sin L''L'''\Add{.} +\end{aligned} +\end{multline*} +\PageSep{5} + +But as there are for each great circle two branches going out from the point~$A$, +these two branches form at this point two angles whose sum is~$180°$. But our analysis +shows that those branches are to be taken whose directions are in the sense from the +point $L$~to~$L'$, and from the point $L''$~to~$L'''$; and since great circles intersect in two +points, it is clear that either of the two points can be chosen arbitrarily. Also, instead +of the angle~$A$, we can take the arc between the poles of the great circles of which the +arcs $LL'$,~$L''L'''$ are parts. But it is evident that those poles are to be chosen which +are similarly placed with respect to these arcs; that is to say, when we go from $L$~to~$L'$ +and from $L''$~to~$L'''$, both of the two poles are to be on the right, or both on the left. + +\Par{VII.} Let $L$,~$L'$,~$L''$ be the three points on the sphere and set, for brevity, +\begin{alignat*}{6} +&\cos (1)L &&= x,\quad&& \cos (2)L &&= y,\quad&& \cos (3)L &&= z\Add{,} \\ +&\cos (1)L' &&= x', && \cos (2)L' &&= y', && \cos (3)L' &&= z'\Add{,} \\ +&\cos (1)L'' &&= x'', && \cos (2)L'' &&= y'', && \cos (3)L'' &&= z''\Add{;} \\ +\end{alignat*} +and also +\[ +x y' z'' + x' y'' z + x'' y z' - x y'' z' - x' y z'' - x'' y' z = \Delta\Add{.} +\] +Let $\lambda$~denote the pole of the great circle of which $LL'$~is a part, this pole being the one +that is placed in the same position with respect to this arc as the point~$(1)$ is with +respect to the arc~$(2)(3)$. Then we shall have, by the preceding theorem, +\[ +y z' - y' z = \cos (1)\lambda·\sin (2)(3)·\sin LL', +\] +or, because $(2)(3) = 90°$, +\begin{align*} +y z' - y' z &= \cos (1)\lambda·\sin LL', \\ +\intertext{and similarly,} +z x' - z' x &= \cos (2)\lambda·\sin LL'\Add{,} \\ +x y' - x' y &= \cos (3)\lambda·\sin LL'\Add{.} +\end{align*} +Multiplying these equations by $x''$,~$y''$,~$z''$ respectively, and adding, we obtain, by means +of the second of the theorems deduced in~V, +\[ +\Delta = \cos \lambda L''·\sin LL'\Add{.} +\] +Now there are three cases to be distinguished. \emph{First}, when $L''$~lies on the great circle +of which the arc~$LL'$ is a part, we shall have $\lambda L'' = 90°$, and consequently, $\Delta = 0$. +If $L''$~does not lie on that great circle, the \emph{second} case will be when $L''$~is on the same +side as~$\lambda$; the \emph{third} case when they are on opposite sides. In the last two cases the +points $L$,~$L'$,~$L''$ will form a spherical triangle, and in the second case these points will lie +in the same order as the points $(1)$,~$(2)$,~$(3)$, and in the opposite order in the third case. +\PageSep{6} +Denoting the angles of this triangle simply by $L$,~$L'$,~$L''$ and the perpendicular drawn on +the sphere from the point~$L''$ to the side~$LL'$ by~$p$, we shall have +\[ +\sin p = \sin L·\sin LL'' = \sin L'·\sin L' L'', +\] +and +\[ +\lambda L'' = 90° \mp p, +\] +the upper sign being taken for the second case, the lower for the third. From this +it follows that +\begin{align*} +±\Delta &= \sin L·\sin LL'·\sin LL'' + = \sin L'·\sin LL'·\sin L'L'' \\ + &= \sin L''·\sin LL''·\sin L'L''\Add{.} +\end{align*} +Moreover, it is evident that the first case can be regarded as contained in the second or +third, and it is easily seen that the expression~$±\Delta$ represents six times the volume of +the pyramid formed by the points $L$,~$L'$,~$L''$ and the centre of the sphere. Whence, +finally, it is clear that the expression~$±\frac{1}{6}\Delta$ expresses generally the volume of any +pyramid contained between the origin of coordinates and the three points whose coordinates +are $\Typo{z}{x}$,~$y$,~$z$; $x'$,~$y'$,~$z'$; $x''$,~$y''$,~$z''$.\Note{5} + + +\Article{3.} + +A curved surface is said to possess continuous curvature at one of its points~$A$, if the +directions of all the straight lines drawn from $A$ to points of the surface at an infinitely +small distance from~$A$ are deflected infinitely little from one and the same plane passing +through~$A$. This plane is said to \emph{touch} the surface at the point~$A$. If this condition is +not satisfied for any point, the continuity of the curvature is here interrupted, as happens, +for example, at the vertex of a cone. The following investigations will be restricted to +such surfaces, or to such parts of surfaces, as have the continuity of their curvature +nowhere interrupted. We shall only observe now that the methods used to determine +the position of the tangent plane lose their meaning at singular points, in which the +continuity of the curvature is interrupted, and must lead to indeterminate solutions. + + +\Article{4.} + +The orientation of the tangent plane is most conveniently studied by means of the +direction of the straight line normal to the plane at the point~$A$, which is also called the +normal to the curved surface at the point~$A$. We shall represent the direction of this +normal by the point~$L$ on the auxiliary sphere, and we shall set +\[ +\cos (1)L = X,\quad \cos (2)L = Y,\quad \cos (3)L = Z; +\] +and denote the coordinates of the point~$A$ by $x$,~$y$,~$z$. Also let $x + dx$, $y + dy$, $z + dz$ +be the coordinates of another point~$A'$ on the curved surface; $ds$~its distance from~$A$, +\PageSep{7} +which is infinitely small; and finally, let $\lambda$ be the point on the sphere representing the +direction of the element~$AA'$. Then we shall have +\[ +dx = ds·\cos (1)\lambda,\quad +dy = ds·\cos (2)\lambda,\quad +dz = ds·\cos (3)\lambda +\] +and, since $\lambda L$~must be equal to~$90°$, +\[ +X\cos (1)\lambda + Y\cos (2)\lambda + Z\cos (3)\lambda = 0\Add{.} +\] +By combining these equations we obtain +\[ +X\, dx + Y\, dy + Z\, dz = 0. +\] + +There are two general methods for defining the nature of a curved surface. The +\emph{first} uses the equation between the coordinates $x$,~$y$,~$z$, which we may suppose reduced to +the form $W = 0$, where $W$~will be a function of the indeterminates $x$,~$y$,~$z$. Let the complete +differential of the function~$W$ be +\[ +dW = P\, dx + Q\, dy + R\, dz +\] +and on the curved surface we shall have +\[ +P\, dx + Q\, dy + R\, dz = 0\Add{,} +\] +and consequently, +\[ +P \cos (1)\lambda + Q \cos (2)\lambda + R \cos (3)\lambda = 0\Add{.} +\] +Since this equation, as well as the one we have established above, must be true for the +directions of all elements~$ds$ on the curved surface, we easily see that $X$,~$Y$,~$Z$ must be +proportional to $P$,~$Q$,~$R$ respectively, and consequently, since\Note{6} +\[ +X^{2} + Y^{2} + Z^{2} = 1,\NoteMark +\] +we shall have either +\begin{align*} +X &= \frac{P}{\Sqrt{P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}}}, & +Y &= \frac{Q}{\Sqrt{P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}}}, & +Z &= \frac{R}{\Sqrt{P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}}} \\ +\intertext{or} +X &= \frac{-P}{\Sqrt{P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}}}, & +Y &= \frac{-Q}{\Sqrt{P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}}}, & +Z &= \frac{-R}{\Sqrt{P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}}}\Add{.} +\end{align*} + +The \emph{second}\Note{7} method expresses the coordinates in the form of functions of two variables, +$p$,~$q$. Suppose that differentiation of these functions gives +\begin{alignat*}{2} +dx &= a\, dp &&+ a'\, dq\Add{,} \\ +dy &= b\, dp &&+ b'\, dq\Add{,} \\ +dz &= c\, dp &&+ c'\, dq\Add{.} +\end{alignat*} +\PageSep{8} +Substituting these values in the formula given above, we obtain +\[ +(aX + bY + cZ)\, dp + (a'X + b'Y + c'Z)\, dq = 0\Add{.} +\] +Since this equation must hold independently of the values of the differentials $dp$,~$dq$, +we evidently shall have +\[ +aX + bY + cZ = 0,\quad a'X + b'Y + c'Z = 0\Add{.} +\] +From this we see that $X$,~$Y$,~$Z$ will be proportioned to the quantities +\[ +bc' - cb',\quad ca' - ac',\quad ab' - ba'\Add{.} +\] +Hence, on setting, for brevity, +\[ +\Sqrt{(bc' - cb')^{2} + (ca' - ac')^{2} + (ab' - ba')^{2}} = \Delta\Add{,} +\] +we shall have either +\begin{align*} +X &= \frac{bc' - cb'}{\Delta},\quad& +Y &= \frac{ca' - ac'}{\Delta},\quad& +Z &= \frac{ab' - ba'}{\Delta} +\intertext{or} +X &= \frac{cb' - bc'}{\Delta},\quad& +Y &= \frac{ac' - ca'}{\Delta},\quad& +Z &= \frac{ba' - ab'}{\Delta}\Add{.} +\end{align*} + +With these two general methods is associated a \emph{third}, in which one of the coordinates, +$z$,~say, is expressed in the form of a function of the other two, $x$,~$y$. This method is +evidently only a particular case either of the first method, or of the second. If we set +\[ +dz = t\, dx + u\, dy +\] +we shall have either +\begin{align*} +X &= \frac{-t}{\Sqrt{1 + t^{2} + u^{2}}}, & +Y &= \frac{-u}{\Sqrt{1 + t^{2} + u^{2}}}, & +Z &= \frac{ 1}{\Sqrt{1 + t^{2} + u^{2}}} \\ +\intertext{or} +X &= \frac{ t}{\Sqrt{1 + t^{2} + u^{2}}}, & +Y &= \frac{ u}{\Sqrt{1 + t^{2} + u^{2}}}, & +Z &= \frac{-1}{\Sqrt{1 + t^{2} + u^{2}}}\Add{.} +\end{align*} + + +\Article{5.} + +The two solutions found in the preceding article evidently refer to opposite points of +the sphere, or to opposite directions, as one would expect, since the normal may be drawn +toward either of the two sides of the curved surface. If we wish to distinguish between +the two regions bordering upon the surface, and call one the exterior region and the other +the interior region, we can then assign to each of the two normals its appropriate solution +by aid of the theorem derived in \Art{2}~(VII), and at the same time establish a criterion +for distinguishing the one region from the other. +\PageSep{9} + +In the first method, such a criterion is to be drawn from the sign of the quantity~$W$. +Indeed, generally speaking, the curved surface divides those regions of space in which $W$ +keeps a positive value from those in which the value of~$W$ becomes negative. In fact, it +is easily seen from this theorem that, if $W$ takes a positive value toward the exterior +region, and if the normal is supposed to be drawn outwardly, the first solution is to be +taken. Moreover, it will be easy to decide in any case whether the same rule for the +sign of~$W$ is to hold throughout the entire surface, or whether for different parts there +will be different rules. As long as the coefficients $P$,~$Q$,~$R$ have finite values and do not +all vanish at the same time, the law of continuity will prevent any change. + +If we follow the second method, we can imagine two systems of curved lines on the +curved surface, one system for which $p$~is variable, $q$~constant; the other for which $q$~is +variable, $p$~constant. The respective positions of these lines with reference to the exterior +region will decide which of the two solutions must be taken. In fact, whenever +the three lines, namely, the branch of the line of the former system going out from the +point~$A$ as $p$~increases, the branch of the line of the latter system going out from the point +$A$ as $q$~increases, and the normal drawn toward the exterior region, are \emph{similarly} placed as +the $x$,~$y$,~$z$ axes respectively from the origin of abscissas (\eg, if, both for the former +three lines and for the latter three, we can conceive the first directed to the left, the +second to the right, and the third upward), the first solution is to be taken. But whenever +the relative position of the three lines is opposite to the relative position of the +$x$,~$y$,~$z$ axes, the second solution will hold. + +In the third method, it is to be seen whether, when $z$~receives a positive increment, $x$~and~$y$ +remaining constant, the point crosses toward the exterior or the interior region. +In the former case, for the normal drawn outward, the first solution holds; in the latter +case, the second. + + +\Article{6.} + +Just as each definite point on the curved surface is made to correspond to a definite +point on the sphere, by the direction of the normal to the curved surface which is transferred +to the surface of the sphere, so also any line whatever, or any figure whatever, on +the latter will be represented by a corresponding line or figure on the former. In the +comparison of two figures corresponding to one another in this way, one of which will be +as the map of the other, two important points are to be considered, one when quantity +alone is considered, the other when, disregarding quantitative relations, position alone +is considered. + +The first of these important points will be the basis of some ideas which it seems +judicious to introduce into the theory of curved surfaces. Thus, to each part of a curved +\PageSep{10} +surface inclosed within definite limits we assign a \emph{total} or \emph{integral curvature}, which is +represented by the area of the figure on the sphere corresponding to it. From this +integral curvature must be distinguished the somewhat more specific curvature which we +shall call the\Note{8} \emph{measure of curvature}. The latter refers to a \emph{point} of the surface, and shall +denote the quotient obtained when the integral curvature of the surface element about +a point is divided by the area of the element itself; and hence it denotes the ratio of the +infinitely small areas which correspond to one another on the curved surface and on the +sphere. The use of these innovations will be abundantly justified, as we hope, by what +we shall explain below. As for the terminology, we have thought it especially desirable +that all ambiguity be avoided. For this reason we have not thought it advantageous to +follow strictly the analogy of the terminology commonly adopted (though not approved by +all) in the theory of plane curves, according to which the measure of curvature should be +called simply curvature, but the total curvature, the amplitude. But why not be free in +the choice of words, provided they are not meaningless and not liable to a misleading +interpretation? + +The position of a figure on the sphere can be either similar to the position of the +corresponding figure on the curved surface, or opposite (inverse). The former is the case +when two lines going out on the curved surface from the same point in different, but not +opposite directions, are represented on the sphere by lines similarly placed, that is, when +the map of the line to the right is also to the right; the latter is the case when the contrary +holds. We shall distinguish these two cases by the positive or negative \emph{sign} of the +measure of curvature. But evidently this distinction can hold only when on each surface +we choose a definite face on which we suppose the figure to lie. On the auxiliary sphere +we shall use always the exterior face, that is, that turned away from the centre; on the +curved surface also there may be taken for the exterior face the one already considered, +or rather that face from which the normal is supposed to be drawn. For, evidently, there +is no change in regard to the similitude of the figures, if on the curved surface both the +figure and the normal be transferred to the opposite side, so long as the image itself +is represented on the same side of the sphere. + +The positive or negative sign, which we assign to the \emph{measure} of curvature according +to the position of the infinitely small figure, we extend also to the integral curvature +of a finite figure on the curved surface. However, if we wish to discuss the general case, +some explanations will be necessary, which we can only touch here briefly. So long +as the figure on the curved surface is such that to \emph{distinct} points on itself there correspond +distinct points on the sphere, the definition needs no further explanation. But +whenever this condition is not satisfied, it will be necessary to take into account twice +or several times certain parts of the figure on the sphere. Whence for a similar, or +\PageSep{11} +inverse position, may arise an accumulation of areas, or the areas may partially or +wholly destroy each other. In such a case, the simplest way is to suppose the curved +surface divided into parts, such that each part, considered separately, satisfies the above +condition; to assign to each of the parts its integral curvature, determining this magnitude +by the area of the corresponding figure on the sphere, and the sign by the position +of this figure; and, finally, to assign to the total figure the integral curvature +arising from the addition of the integral curvatures which correspond to the single parts. +So, generally, the integral curvature of a figure is equal to $\int k\, d\sigma$, $d\sigma$~denoting the +element of area of the figure, and $k$~the measure of curvature at any point. The principal +points concerning the geometric representation of this integral reduce to the following. +To the perimeter of the figure on the curved surface (under the restriction +of \Art{3}) will correspond always a closed line on the sphere. If the latter nowhere +intersect itself, it will divide the whole surface of the sphere into two parts, one of +which will correspond to the figure on the curved surface; and its area (taken as +positive or negative according as, with respect to its perimeter, its position is similar, +or inverse, to the position of the figure on the curved surface) will represent the integral +curvature of the figure on the curved surface. But whenever this line intersects +itself once or several times, it will give a complicated figure, to which, however, it is +possible to assign a definite area as legitimately as in the case of a figure without +nodes; and this area, properly interpreted, will give always an exact value for the +integral curvature. However, we must reserve for another occasion\Note{9} the more extended +exposition of the theory of these figures viewed from this very general standpoint. + + +\Article{7.} + +We shall now find a formula which will express the measure of curvature for +any point of a curved surface. Let $d\sigma$~denote the area of an element of this surface; +then $Z\, d\sigma$~will be the area of the projection of this element on the plane of the coordinates +$x$,~$y$; and consequently, if $d\Sigma$~is the area of the corresponding element on the +sphere, $Z\, d\Sigma$~will be the area of its projection on the same plane. The positive or +negative sign of~$Z$ will, in fact, indicate that the position of the projection is similar or +inverse to that of the projected element. Evidently these projections have the same +ratio as to quantity and the same relation as to position as the elements themselves. +Let us consider now a triangular element on the curved surface, and let us suppose +that the coordinates of the three points which form its projection are +\begin{alignat*}{3} +&x, && y\Add{,} \\ +&x + dx,\quad && y + dy\Add{,} \\ +&x + \delta x,\quad && y + \delta y\Add{.} +\end{alignat*} +\PageSep{12} +The double area of this triangle will be expressed by the formula +\[ +dx·\delta y - dy·\delta x\Add{,} +\] +and this will be in a positive or negative form according as the position of the side +from the first point to the third, with respect to the side from the first point to the +second, is similar or opposite to the position of the $y$-axis of coordinates with respect +to the $x$-axis of coordinates. + +In like manner, if the coordinates of the three points which form the projection of +the corresponding element on the sphere, from the centre of the sphere as origin, are +\begin{alignat*}{3} +&X, && Y\Add{,} \\ +&X + dX,\quad && Y + dY\Add{,} \\ +&X + \delta X,\quad && Y + \delta Y\Add{,} +\end{alignat*} +the double area of this projection will be expressed by +\[ +dX·\delta Y - dY·\delta X\Add{,} +\] +and the sign of this expression is determined in the same manner as above.

Indeed, the first two +\PageSep{14} +conditions will be fulfilled at once if the tangent plane at this point be taken for the +$xy$-plane.

The analysis +developed in the preceding article thus shows us that for finding the measure of curvature +there is no need of finite formulæ, which express the coordinates $x$,~$y$,~$z$ as +functions of the indeterminates $p$,~$q$; but that the general expression for the magnitude +of any linear element is sufficient. Let us proceed to some applications of this very +important theorem. + +Suppose that our surface can be developed upon another surface, curved or plane, +so that to each point of the former surface, determined by the coordinates $x$,~$y$,~$z$, will +correspond a definite point of the latter surface, whose coordinates are $x'$,~$y'$,~$z'$. Evidently +$x'$,~$y'$,~$z'$ can also be regarded as functions of the indeterminates $p$,~$q$, and therefore +for the element $\Sqrt{dx'^{2} + dy'^{2} + dz'^{2}}$ we shall have an expression of the form +\[ +\Sqrt{E'\, dp^{2} + 2F'\, dp·dq + G'\, dq^{2}}\Add{,} +\] +where $E'$,~$F'$,~$G'$ also denote functions of $p$,~$q$. But from the very notion of the \emph{development} +of one surface upon another it is clear that the elements corresponding to one +another on the two surfaces are necessarily equal. Therefore we shall have identically +\[ +E = E',\quad F = F',\quad G = G'. +\] +Thus the formula of the preceding article leads of itself to the remarkable + +\begin{Theorem} +If a curved surface is developed upon any other surface whatever, the +measure of curvature in each point remains unchanged. +\end{Theorem} +\PageSep{21} + +Also it is evident that +\begin{Theorem}[] +any finite part whatever of the curved surface will retain the +same integral curvature after development upon another surface. +\end{Theorem} + +Surfaces developable upon a plane constitute the particular case to which geometers +have heretofore restricted their attention. Our theory shows at once that the +measure of curvature at every point of such surfaces is equal to zero. Consequently, +if the nature of these surfaces is defined according to the third method, we shall have +at every point +\[ +\frac{\dd^{2} z}{\dd x^{2}}·\frac{\dd^{2} z}{\dd y^{2}} + - \left(\frac{\dd^{2}z}{\dd x·\dd y}\right)^{2} = 0\Add{,} +\] +a criterion which, though indeed known a short time ago, has not, at least to our +knowledge, commonly been demonstrated with as much rigor as is desirable. + + +\Article{13.} + +What we have explained in the preceding article is connected with a particular +method of studying surfaces, a very worthy method which may be thoroughly developed +by geometers. When a surface is regarded, not as the boundary of a solid, but +as a flexible, though not extensible solid, one dimension of which is supposed to +vanish, then the properties of the surface depend in part upon the form to which we +can suppose it reduced, and in part are absolute and remain invariable, whatever may +be the form into which the surface is bent. To these latter properties, the study of +which opens to geometry a new and fertile field, belong the measure of curvature and +the integral curvature, in the sense which we have given to these expressions. To +these belong also the theory of shortest lines, and a great part of what we reserve to +be treated later. From this point of view, a plane surface and a surface developable +on a plane, \eg,~cylindrical surfaces, conical surfaces,~etc., are to be regarded as essentially +identical; and the generic method of defining in a general manner the nature of +the surfaces thus considered is always based upon the formula +\[ +\Sqrt{E\, dp^{2} + 2F\, dp·dq + G\, dq^{2}}, +\] +which connects the linear element with the two indeterminates $p$,~$q$.

Here for a constant value of~$q$ the angle~$\theta$ becomes equal to +zero, and therefore the equation for the variation of~$\theta$ just given shows that we must +have $\dfrac{\dd E}{\dd q} = 0$, or that the coefficient~$E$ must be independent of~$\Erratum{g}{q}$; \ie, $E$~must be +either a constant or a function of $p$~alone. It will be simplest to take for~$p$ +the length of each line of the first system, which length, when all the lines of the +first system meet in a point, is to be measured from this point, or, if there is no +common intersection, from any line whatever of the second system. Having made +these conventions, it is evident that $p$~and~$q$ denote now the same quantities that +were expressed in \Arts{15}{16} by $r$~and~$\phi$, and that $E = 1$.

But in the particular case where +all the lines~$p$ go out from the same point, evidently we must have $m = 0$ for $p = 0$. +Furthermore, in the case under discussion we will take for~$q$ the angle itself which +the first element of any line whatever of the first system makes with the element of +any one of the lines chosen arbitrarily. Then, since for an infinitely small value of~$p$ +the element of a line of the second system (which can be regarded as a circle +described with radius~$p$) is equal to~$p\, dq$, we shall have for an infinitely small value +of~$p$, $m = p$, and consequently, for $p = 0$, $m = 0$ at the same time, and $\dfrac{\dd m}{\dd p} = 1$. +\PageSep{29} + + +\Article{20.} + +We pause to investigate the case in which we suppose that $p$~denotes in a general +manner the length of the shortest line drawn from a fixed point~$A$ to any other +point whatever of the surface, and $q$~the angle that the first element of this line +makes with the first element of another given shortest line going out from~$A$. Let +$B$ be a definite point in the latter line, for which $q = 0$, and $C$~another definite point +of the surface, at which we denote the value of~$q$ simply by~$A$. Let us suppose the +points $B$,~$C$ joined by a shortest line, the parts of which, measured from~$B$, we denote +in a general way, as in \Art{18}, by~$s$; and, as in the same article, let us denote by~$\theta$ +the angle which any element~$ds$ makes with the element~$dp$; finally, let us denote +by $\theta°$,~$\theta'$ the values of the angle~$\theta$ at the points $B$,~$C$. We have thus on the curved +surface a triangle formed by shortest lines. The angles of this triangle at $B$~and~$C$ +we shall denote simply by the same letters, and $B$~will be equal to~$180° - \theta$, $C$~to $\theta'$~itself. +But, since it is easily seen from our analysis that all the angles are supposed +to be expressed, not in degrees, but by numbers, in such a way that the angle $57°\, 17'\, 45''$, +to which corresponds an arc equal to the radius, is taken for the unit, we must set +\[ +\theta° = \pi - B,\quad \theta' = C\Add{,} +\] +where $2\pi$~denotes the circumference of the sphere. Let us now examine the integral +curvature of this triangle, which is equal to +\[ +\int k\, d\sigma, +\] +$d\sigma$~denoting a surface element of the triangle. Wherefore, since this element is expressed +by~$m\, dp·dq$, we must extend the integral +\[ +\iint \Typo{}{k}m\, dp·dq +\] +over the whole surface of the triangle. Let us begin by integration with respect to~$p$, +which, because +\[ +k = -\frac{1}{m}·\frac{\dd^{2} m}{\dd p^{2}}, +\] +gives +\[ +dq·\left(\text{const.} - \frac{\dd m}{\dd p}\right), +\] +for the integral curvature of the area lying between the lines of the first system, to +which correspond the values $q$,~$q + dq$ of the second indeterminate. Since this integral +\PageSep{30} +curvature must vanish for $p = 0$, the constant introduced by integration must be +equal to the value of~$\dfrac{\dd m}{\dd q}$ for $p = 0$, \ie,~equal to unity. Thus we have +\[ +dq\left(1 - \frac{\dd m}{\dd p}\right), +\] +where for $\dfrac{\dd m}{\dd p}$ must be taken the value corresponding to the end of this area on the +line~$CB$. But on this line we have, by the preceding article, +\[ +\frac{\dd m}{\dd q}·dq = -d\theta, +\] +whence our expression is changed into $dq + d\theta$. Now by a second integration, taken +from $q = 0$ to $q = A$, we obtain for the integral curvature +\[ +A + \theta'- \theta°, +\] +or +\[ +A + B + C - \pi. +\] + +The integral curvature is equal to the area of that part of the sphere which corresponds +to the triangle, taken with the positive or negative sign according as the +curved surface on which the triangle lies is concavo-concave or concavo-convex. For +unit area will be taken the square whose side is equal to unity (the radius of the +sphere), and then the whole surface of the sphere becomes equal to~$4\pi$. Thus the +part of the surface of the sphere corresponding to the triangle is to the whole surface +of the sphere as $±(A + B + C - \pi)$ is to~$4\pi$. This theorem, which, if we mistake +not, ought to be counted among the most elegant in the theory of curved surfaces, +may also be stated as follows: + +\begin{Theorem}[] +The excess over~$180°$ of the sum of the angles of a triangle formed by shortest lines +on a concavo-concave curved surface, or the deficit from~$180°$ of the sum of the angles of +a triangle formed hy shortest lines on a concavo-convex curved surface, is measured by the +area of the part of the sphere which corresponds, through the directions of the normals, to +that triangle, if the whole surface of the sphere is set equal to $720$~degrees. +\end{Theorem} + +More generally, in any polygon whatever of $n$~sides, each formed by a shortest +line, the excess of the sum of the angles over $(2n - 4)$~right angles, or the deficit from +$(2n - 4)$~right angles (according to the nature of the curved surface), is equal to the +area of the corresponding polygon on the sphere, if the whole surface of the sphere is +set equal to $720$~degrees. This follows at once from the preceding theorem by dividing +the polygon into triangles. +\PageSep{31} + + +\Article{21.} + +Let us again give to the symbols $p$,~$q$, $E$,~$F$,~$G$, $\omega$ the general meanings which +were given to them above, and let us further suppose that the nature of the curved +surface is defined in a similar way by two other variables, $p'$,~$q'$, in which case the +general linear element is expressed by +\[ +\Sqrt{E'\, dp'^{2} + 2F'\, dp'·dq' + G'\, dq'^{2}}\Add{.} +\] +Thus to any point whatever lying on the surface and defined by definite values of +the variables $p$,~$q$ will correspond definite values of the variables $p'$,~$q'$, which will +therefore be functions of $p$,~$q$.

If through the definite point to +which correspond the values $p$,~$q$, $p'$,~$q'$ of the variables we suppose the four lines +belonging to these different systems to be drawn, the elements of these lines, corresponding +to the positive increments $dp$,~$dq$, $dp'$,~$dq'$, will be +\[ +\sqrt{E}·dp,\quad +\sqrt{G}·dq,\quad +\sqrt{E'}·dp',\quad +\sqrt{G'}·dq'. +\] +The angles which the directions of these elements make with an arbitrary fixed direction +we shall denote by $M$,~$N$, $M'$,~$N'$, measuring them in the sense in which the +second is placed with respect to the first, so that $\sin(N - M)$ is positive. Let us +suppose (which is permissible) that the fourth is placed in the same sense with respect +to the third, so that $\sin(N' - M')$ also is positive. Having made these conventions, +if we consider another point at an infinitely small distance from the first point, and +to which correspond the values $p + dp$, $q + dq$, $p' + dp'$, $q' + dq'$ of the variables, we +see without much difficulty that we shall have generally, \ie, independently of the +values of the increments $dp$,~$dq$, $dp'$,~$dq'$, +\[ +\sqrt{E}·dp·\sin M + \sqrt{G}·dq·\sin N + = \sqrt{E'}·dp'·\sin M' + \sqrt{G'}·dq'·\sin N'\Add{,} +\] +since each of these expressions is merely the distance of the new point from the line +from which the angles of the directions begin.

We shall use $r$,~$\phi$ here +also in such a way that, for any point whatever on the surface, $r$~will be the shortest +distance from a fixed point, and $\phi$~the angle at this point between the first element +of~$r$ and a fixed direction. We have thus +\[ +E' = 1,\quad +F' = 0,\quad +\omega' = 90°. +\] +Let us set also +\[ +\sqrt{G'} = m, +\] +so that any linear element whatever becomes equal to +\[ +\Sqrt{dr^{2} + m^{2}\, d\phi^{2}}. +\] +Consequently, the four equations deduced in the preceding article for $\alpha$,~$\beta$,~$\gamma$,~$\delta$ give +\begin{align*} +\sqrt{E}·\cos(\omega - \psi) = \frac{\dd r}{\dd p}\Add{,} +\Tag{(1)} \\ +\sqrt{G}·\cos \psi = \frac{\dd r}{\dd q}\Add{,} +\Tag{(2)} \displaybreak[1] \\ +\PageSep{34} +\sqrt{E}·\sin(\psi - \omega) = m·\frac{\dd\phi}{\dd p}\Add{,} +\Tag{(3)} \\ +\sqrt{G}·\sin\psi = m·\frac{\dd\phi}{\dd q}\Add{.} +\Tag{(4)} +\end{align*} +But the last and the next to the last equations of the preceding article give +\begin{gather*} +EG - F^{2} + = E\left(\frac{\dd r}{\dd q}\right)^{2} + - 2F·\frac{\dd r}{\dd p}·\frac{\dd r}{\dd q} + + G\left(\frac{\dd r}{\dd p}\right)^{2}\Add{,} +\Tag{(5)} \\ +\left(E·\frac{\dd r}{\dd q} - F·\frac{\dd r}{\dd p}\right)·\frac{\dd\phi}{\dd q} + = \left(F·\frac{\dd r}{\dd q} - G·\frac{\dd r}{\dd p}\right)·\frac{\dd\phi}{\dd p}\Add{.} +\Tag{(6)} +\end{gather*} + +From these equations must be determined the quantities $r$,~$\phi$,~$\psi$ and (if need be)~$m$, +as functions of $p$~and~$q$. Indeed, integration of equation~(5) will give~$r$; $r$~being +found, integration of equation~(6) will give~$\phi$; and one or other of equations (1),~(2) +will give $\psi$~itself. Finally, $m$~is obtained from one or other of equations (3),~(4). + +The general integration of equations (5),~(6) must necessarily introduce two arbitrary +functions. We shall easily understand what their meaning is, if we remember +that these equations are not limited to the case we are here considering, but are +equally valid if $r$~and~$\phi$ are taken in the more general sense of \Art{16}, so that $r$~is +the length of the shortest line drawn normal to a fixed but arbitrary line, and $\phi$~is +an arbitrary function of the length of that part of the fixed line which is intercepted +between any shortest line and an arbitrary fixed point. The general solution must +embrace all this in a general way, and the arbitrary functions must go over into +definite functions only when the arbitrary line and the arbitrary functions of its +parts, which $\phi$~must represent, are themselves defined. In our case an infinitely +small circle may be taken, having its centre at the point from which the distances~$r$ +are measured, and $\phi$~will denote the parts themselves of this circle, divided by the +radius. Whence it is easily seen that the equations (5),~(6) are quite sufficient for +our case, provided that the functions which they leave undefined satisfy the condition +which $r$~and~$\phi$ satisfy for the initial point and for points at an infinitely small +distance from this point. + +Moreover, in regard to the integration itself of the equations (5),~(6), we know +that it can be reduced to the integration of ordinary differential equations, which, however, +often happen to be so complicated that there is little to be gained by the reduction. +On the contrary, the development in series, which are abundantly sufficient for +practical requirements, when only a finite portion of the surface is under consideration, +presents no difficulty; and the formulæ thus derived open a fruitful source for +\PageSep{35} +the solution of many important problems. But here we shall develop only a single +example in order to show the nature of the method. + + +\Article{23.} + +We shall now consider the case where all the lines for which $p$~is constant are +shortest lines cutting orthogonally the line for which $\phi = 0$, which line we can regard +as the axis of abscissas. Let $A$~be the point for which $r = 0$, $D$~any point whatever +on the axis of abscissas, $AD = p$, $B$~any point whatever on the shortest line normal +to~$AD$ at~$D$, and $BD = q$, so that $p$~can be regarded as the abscissa, $q$~the ordinate +of the point~$B$. The abscissas we assume positive on the branch of the axis of +abscissas to which $\phi = 0$ corresponds, while we always regard~$r$ as positive. We take +the ordinates positive in the region in which $\phi$~is measured between $0$~and~$180°$. + +By the theorem of \Art{16} we shall have +\[ +\omega = 90°,\quad +F = 0,\quad +G = 1, +\] +and we shall set also +\[ +\sqrt{E} = n. +\] +Thus $n$~will be a function of $p$,~$q$, such that for $q = 0$ it must become equal to unity. +The application of the formula of \Art{18} to our case shows that on any shortest +line \emph{whatever} we must have\Note{17} +\[ +d\theta = \frac{\dd n}{\dd q}·dp,\NoteMark +\] +where $\theta$~denotes the angle between the element of this line and the element of the +line for which $q$~is constant.

Pages 1761--1768. 1827. November~5. +} + +On the 8th~of October, Hofrath Gauss presented to the Royal Society a paper: +\begin{center} +\textit{Disquisitiones generales circa superficies curvas.} +\end{center} + +Although geometers have given much attention to general investigations of curved +surfaces and their results cover a significant portion of the domain of higher geometry, +this subject is still so far from being exhausted, that it can well be said that, up to +this time, but a small portion of an exceedingly fruitful field has been cultivated. +Through the solution of the problem, to find all representations of a given surface upon +another in which the smallest elements remain unchanged, the author sought some +years ago to give a new phase to this study. The purpose of the present discussion +is further to open up other new points of view and to develop some of the new truths +which thus become accessible. We shall here give an account of those things which +can be made intelligible in a few words. But we wish to remark at the outset that +the new theorems as well as the presentations of new ideas, if the greatest generality +is to be attained, are still partly in need of some limitations or closer determinations, +which must be omitted here. + +In researches in which an infinity of directions of straight lines in space is concerned, +it is advantageous to represent these directions by means of those points upon +a fixed sphere, which are the end points of the radii drawn parallel to the lines. The +centre and the radius of this \emph{auxiliary sphere} are here quite arbitrary. The radius may +be taken equal to unity. This procedure agrees fundamentally with that which is constantly +employed in astronomy, where all directions are referred to a fictitious celestial +sphere of infinite radius. Spherical trigonometry and certain other theorems, to which +the author has added a new one of frequent application, then serve for the solution of +the problems which the comparison of the various directions involved can present. +\PageSep{46} + +If we represent the direction of the normal at each point of the curved surface by +the corresponding point of the sphere, determined as above indicated, namely, in this +way, to every point on the surface, let a point on the sphere correspond; then, generally +speaking, to every line on the curved surface will correspond a line on the sphere, +and to every part of the former surface will correspond a part of the latter. The less +this part differs from a plane, the smaller will be the corresponding part on the sphere. +It is, therefore, a very natural idea to use as the measure of the total curvature, +which is to be assigned to a part of the curved surface, the area of the corresponding +part of the sphere. For this reason the author calls this area the \emph{integral curvature} of +the corresponding part of the curved surface. Besides the magnitude of the part, there +is also at the same time its \emph{position} to be considered. And this position may be in +the two parts similar or inverse, quite independently of the relation of their magnitudes. +The two cases can be distinguished by the positive or negative sign of the +total curvature. This distinction has, however, a definite meaning only when the +figures are regarded as upon definite sides of the two surfaces. The author regards +the figure in the case of the sphere on the outside, and in the case of the curved surface +on that side upon which we consider the normals erected. It follows then that +the positive sign is taken in the case of convexo-convex or concavo-concave surfaces +(which are not essentially different), and the negative in the case of concavo-convex +surfaces. If the part of the curved surface in question consists of parts of these different +sorts, still closer definition is necessary, which must be omitted here. + +The comparison of the areas of two corresponding parts of the curved surface and of +the sphere leads now (in the same manner as, \eg, from the comparison of volume and +mass springs the idea of density) to a new idea. The author designates as \emph{measure of +curvature} at a point of the curved surface the value of the fraction whose denominator is +the area of the infinitely small part of the curved surface at this point and whose numerator +is the area of the corresponding part of the surface of the auxiliary sphere, or the +integral curvature of that element. It is clear that, according to the idea of the author, +integral curvature and measure of curvature in the case of curved surfaces are analogous +to what, in the case of curved lines, are called respectively amplitude and curvature +simply. He hesitates to apply to curved surfaces the latter expressions, which +have been accepted more from custom than on account of fitness. Moreover, less +depends upon the choice of words than upon this, that their introduction shall be justified +by pregnant theorems. + +The solution of the problem, to find the measure of curvature at any point of a curved +surface, appears in different forms according to the manner in which the nature of the +curved surface is given. When the points in space, in general, are distinguished by +\PageSep{47} +three rectangular coordinates, the simplest method is to express one coordinate as a function +of the other two. In this way we obtain the simplest expression for the measure of +curvature. But, at the same time, there arises a remarkable relation between this +measure of curvature and the curvatures of the curves formed by the intersections of +the curved surface with planes normal to it. \textsc{Euler}, as is well known, first showed +that two of these cutting planes which intersect each other at right angles have this +property, that in one is found the greatest and in the other the smallest radius of curvature; +or, more correctly, that in them the two extreme curvatures are found. It will +follow then from the above mentioned expression for the measure of curvature that this +will be equal to a fraction whose numerator is unity and whose denominator is the product +of the extreme radii of curvature. The expression for the measure of curvature will be +less simple, if the nature of the curved surface is determined by an equation in $x$,~$y$,~$z$. +And it will become still more complex, if the nature of the curved surface is given so that +$x$,~$y$,~$z$ are expressed in the form of functions of two new variables $p$,~$q$. In this last case +the expression involves fifteen elements, namely, the partial differential coefficients of the +first and second orders of $x$,~$y$,~$z$ with respect to $p$~and~$q$. But it is less important in itself +than for the reason that it facilitates the transition to another expression, which must be +classed with the most remarkable theorems of this study. If the nature of the curved +surface be expressed by this method, the general expression for any linear element upon +it, or for $\Sqrt{dx^{2} + dy^{2} + dz^{2}}$, has the form $\Sqrt{E\, dp^{2} + 2F\, dp·dq + G\, dq^{2}}$, where $E$,~$F$,~$G$ +are again functions of $p$~and~$q$. The new expression for the measure of curvature mentioned +above contains merely these magnitudes and their partial differential coefficients +of the first and second order. Therefore we notice that, in order to determine the +measure of curvature, it is necessary to know only the general expression for a linear +element; the expressions for the coordinates $x$,~$y$,~$z$ are not required. A direct result +from this is the remarkable theorem: If a curved surface, or a part of it, can be developed +upon another surface, the measure of curvature at every point remains unchanged +after the development. In particular, it follows from this further: Upon a curved +surface that can be developed upon a plane, the measure of curvature is everywhere +equal to zero. From this we derive at once the characteristic equation of surfaces +developable upon a plane, namely, +\[ +\frac{\dd^{2} z}{\dd x^{2}}·\frac{\dd^{2} z}{\dd y^{2}} + - \left(\frac{\dd^{2} z}{\dd x·\dd y}\right)^{2} = 0, +\] +when $z$~is regarded as a function of $x$~and~$y$. This equation has been known for some +time, but according to the author's judgment it has not been established previously +with the necessary rigor. +\PageSep{48} + +These theorems lead to the consideration of the theory of curved surfaces from a +new point of view, where a wide and still wholly uncultivated field is open to investigation. +If we consider surfaces not as boundaries of bodies, but as bodies of which +one dimension vanishes, and if at the same time we conceive them as flexible but not +extensible, we see that two essentially different relations must be distinguished, namely, +on the one hand, those that presuppose a definite form of the surface in space; on the +other hand, those that are independent of the various forms which the surface may +assume. This discussion is concerned with the latter. In accordance with what has +been said, the measure of curvature belongs to this case. But it is easily seen that +the consideration of figures constructed upon the surface, their angles, their areas and +their integral curvatures, the joining of the points by means of shortest lines, and the +like, also belong to this case. All such investigations must start from this, that the +very nature of the curved surface is given by means of the expression of any linear +element in the form $\Sqrt{E\, dp^{2} + 2F\, dp·dq + G\, dq^{2}}$. The author has embodied in the +present treatise a portion of his investigations in this field, made several years ago, +while he limits himself to such as are not too remote for an introduction, and may, to +some extent, be generally helpful in many further investigations. In our abstract, we +must limit ourselves still more, and be content with citing only a few of them as +types. The following theorems may serve for this purpose. + +If upon a curved surface a system of infinitely many shortest lines of equal lengths +be drawn from one initial point, then will the line going through the end points of +these shortest lines cut each of them at right angles. If at every point of an arbitrary +line on a curved surface shortest lines of equal lengths be drawn at right angles to this +line, then will all these shortest lines be perpendicular also to the line which joins their +other end points. Both these theorems, of which the latter can be regarded as a generalization +of the former, will be demonstrated both analytically and by simple geometrical +considerations. \begin{Theorem}[]The excess of the sum of the angles of a triangle formed by shortest lines +over two right angles is equal to the total curvature of the triangle.\end{Theorem} It will be assumed here +that that angle ($57°\, 17'\, 45''$) to which an arc equal to the radius of the sphere corresponds +will be taken as the unit for the angles, and that for the unit of total curvature will be +taken a part of the spherical surface, the area of which is a square whose side is equal to +the radius of the sphere. Evidently we can express this important theorem thus also: +the excess over two right angles of the angles of a triangle formed by shortest lines is to +eight right angles as the part of the surface of the auxiliary sphere, which corresponds +to it as its integral curvature, is to the whole surface of the sphere. In general, the +excess over $2n - 4$~right angles of the angles of a polygon of $n$~sides, if these are +shortest lines, will be equal to the integral curvature of the polygon. +\PageSep{49} + +The general investigations developed in this treatise will, in the conclusion, be applied +to the theory of triangles of shortest lines, of which we shall introduce only a couple of +important theorems. If $a$,~$b$,~$c$ be the sides of such a triangle (they will be regarded as +magnitudes of the first order); $A$,~$B$,~$C$ the angles opposite; $\alpha$,~$\beta$,~$\gamma$ the measures of +curvature at the angular points; $\sigma$~the area of the triangle, then, to magnitudes of the +fourth order, $\frac{1}{3}(\alpha + \beta + \gamma)\sigma$ is the excess of the sum $A + B + C$ over two right angles. +Further, with the same degree of exactness, the angles of a plane rectilinear triangle +whose sides are $a$,~$b$,~$c$, are respectively +\begin{align*} +A &- \tfrac{1}{12}(2\alpha + \beta + \gamma)\sigma\Add{,} \\ +B &- \tfrac{1}{12}(\alpha + 2\beta + \gamma)\sigma\Add{,} \\ +C &- \tfrac{1}{12}(\alpha + \beta + 2\gamma)\sigma. +\end{align*} +We see immediately that this last theorem is a generalization of the familiar theorem first +established by \textsc{Legendre}. By means of this theorem we obtain the angles of a plane +triangle, correct to magnitudes of the fourth order, if we diminish each angle of the corresponding +spherical triangle by one-third of the spherical excess. In the case of non-spherical +surfaces, we must apply unequal reductions to the angles, and this inequality, +generally speaking, is a magnitude of the third order. However, even if the whole surface +differs only a little from the spherical form, it will still involve also a factor denoting +the degree of the deviation from the spherical form. It is unquestionably important for +the higher geodesy that we be able to calculate the inequalities of those reductions and +thereby obtain the thorough conviction that, for all measurable triangles on the surface +of the earth, they are to be regarded as quite insensible. So it is, for example, in the +case of the greatest triangle of the triangulation carried out by the author. The greatest +side of this triangle is almost fifteen geographical\footnote + {This German geographical mile is four minutes of arc at the equator, namely, $7.42$~kilometers, + and is equal to about $4.6$~English statute miles. [Translators.]} +miles, and the excess of the sum +of its three angles over two right angles amounts almost to fifteen seconds.

We shall even begin by +advancing certain properties concerning plane curves from the same principles. + + +\Article{1.} + +In order to compare in a convenient manner the different directions of straight +lines in a plane with each other, we imagine a circle with unit radius described +in the plane about an arbitrary centre. The position of the radius of this circle, +drawn parallel to a straight line given in advance, represents then the position of that +line. And the angle which two straight lines make with each other is measured by +the angle between the two radii representing them, or by the arc included between +their extremities. Of course, where precise definition is necessary, it is specified at +the outset, for every straight line, in what sense it is regarded as drawn. Without +such a distinction the direction of a straight line would always correspond to two +opposite radii. + + +\Article{2.} + +In the auxiliary circle we take an arbitrary radius as the first, or its terminal +point in the circumference as the origin, and determine the positive sense of measuring +the arcs from this point (whether from left to right or the contrary); in the +opposite direction the arcs are regarded then as negative. Thus every direction of a +straight line is expressed in degrees,~etc., or also by a number which expresses them +in parts of the radius. +\PageSep{82} + +Such lines as differ in direction by~$360°$, or by a multiple of~$360°$, have, therefore, +precisely the same direction, and may, generally speaking, be regarded as the +same. However, in such cases where the manner of describing a variable angle is +taken into consideration, it may be necessary to distinguish carefully angles differing +by~$360°$. + +If, for example, we have decided to measure the arcs from left to right, and if +to two straight lines $l$,~$l'$ correspond the two directions $L$,~$L'$, then $L' - L$ is the angle +between those two straight lines. And it is easily seen that, since $L' - L$ falls +between $-180°$~and~$+180°$, the positive or negative value indicates at once that $l'$~lies +on the right or the left of~$l$, as seen from the point of intersection. This will +be determined generally by the sign of~$\sin(L' - L)$. + +If $aa'$~is a part of a curved line, and if to the tangents at $a$,~$a'$ correspond +respectively the directions $\alpha$,~$\alpha'$, by which letters shall be denoted also the corresponding +points on the auxiliary circles, and if $A$,~$A'$ be their distances along the arc +from the origin, then the magnitude of the arc~$\alpha\alpha'$ or $A' - A$ is called the \emph{amplitude} +of~$aa'$. + +The comparison of the amplitude of the arc~$aa'$ with its length gives us the +notion of curvature. Let $l$~be any point on the arc~$aa'$, and let $\lambda$,~$\Lambda$ be the same +with reference to it that $\alpha$,~$A$ and $\alpha'$,~$A'$ are with reference to $a$~and~$a'$. If now +$\alpha\lambda$~or~$\Lambda - A$ be proportional to the part~$al$ of the arc, then we shall say that $aa'$~is +uniformly curved throughout its whole length, and we shall call +\[ +\frac{\Lambda - A}{al} +\] +the measure of curvature, or simply the curvature. We easily see that this happens +only when $aa'$~is actually the arc of a circle, and that then, according to our definition, +its curvature will be~$±\dfrac{1}{r}$ if $r$~denotes the radius. Since we always regard $r$ +as positive, the upper or the lower sign will hold according as the centre lies to the +right or to the left of the arc~$aa'$ ($a$~being regarded as the initial point, $a'$~as the +end point, and the directions on the auxiliary circle being measured from left to +right). Changing one of these conditions changes the sign, changing two restores it +again. + +On the contrary, if $\Lambda - A$ be not proportional to~$al$, then we call the arc non-uniformly +curved and the quotient +\[ +\frac{\Lambda - A}{al} +\] +\PageSep{83} +may then be called its mean curvature. Curvature, on the contrary, always presupposes +that the point is determined, and is defined as the mean curvature of an element +at this point; it is therefore equal to +\[ +\frac{d\Lambda}{d\,al}. +\] +We see, therefore, that arc, amplitude, and curvature sustain a similar relation to each +other as time, motion, and velocity, or as volume, mass, and density. The reciprocal +of the curvature, namely, +\[ +\frac{d\,al}{d\Lambda}, +\] +is called the radius of curvature at the point~$l$. And, in keeping with the above +conventions, the curve at this point is called concave toward the right and convex +toward the left, if the value of the curvature or of the radius of curvature happens +to be positive; but, if it happens to be negative, the contrary is true. + + +\Article{3.} + +If we refer the position of a point in the plane to two perpendicular axes of +coordinates to which correspond the directions $0$~and~$90°$, in such a manner that the +first coordinate represents the distance of the point from the second axis, measured in +the direction of the first axis; whereas the second coordinate represents the distance +from the first axis, measured in the direction of the second axis; if, further, the indeterminates +$x$,~$y$ represent the coordinates of a point on the curved line, $s$~the length +of the line measured from an arbitrary origin to this point, $\phi$~the direction of the +tangent at this point, and $r$~the radius of curvature; then we shall have +\begin{align*} +dx &= \cos\phi·ds, \\ +dy &= \sin\phi·ds, \\ +r &= \frac{ds}{d\phi}. +\end{align*} + +If the nature of the curved line is defined by the equation $V = 0$, where $V$~is a +function of $x$,~$y$, and if we set +\[ +dV = p\, dx + q\, dy, +\] +then on the curved line +\[ +p\, dx + q\, dy = 0. +\] +Hence +\[ +p\cos\phi + q\sin\phi = 0, +\] +\PageSep{84} +and therefore +\[ +\tan\phi = -\frac{p}{q}. +\] +We have also +\[ +\cos\phi·dp + \sin\phi·dq - (p\sin\phi - q\cos\phi)\, d\phi = 0. +\] +If, therefore, we set, according to a well known theorem, +\begin{align*} +dp &= P\, dx + Q\, dy, \\ +dq &= Q\, dx + R\, dy, +\end{align*} +then we have\Note{32} +\[ +(P\cos^{2}\phi + 2Q\cos\phi\sin\phi + R\sin^{2}\phi)\, ds + = (p\sin\phi - q\cos\phi)\, d\phi,\NoteMark +\] +therefore +\[ +\frac{1}{r} + = \frac{P\cos^{2}\phi + 2Q\cos\phi\sin\phi + R\sin^{2}\phi} + {p\sin\phi - q\cos\phi}, +\] +or, since\Note{33} +\begin{gather*} +\cos\phi = \frac{\mp q}{\Sqrt{p^{2} + q^{2}}},\qquad +\sin\phi = \frac{±p}{\Sqrt{p^{2} + q^{2}}};\NoteMark \\ +±\frac{1}{r} = \frac{Pq^{2} - 2Qpq + Rp^{2}}{(p^{2} + q^{2})^{3/2}}. +\end{gather*} + + +\Article{4.} + +The ambiguous sign in the last formula might at first seem out of place, but +upon closer consideration it is found to be quite in order. In fact, since this expression +depends simply upon the partial differentials of~$V$, and since the function $V$~itself +merely defines the nature of the curve without at the same time fixing the sense in +which it is supposed to be described, the question, whether the curve is convex +toward the right or left, must remain undetermined until the sense is determined by +some other means. The case is similar in the determination of~$\phi$ by means of the +tangent, to single values of which correspond two angles differing by~$180°$. The +sense in which the curve is described can be specified in the following different ways. + +\Par{I.} By means of the sign of the change in~$x$. If $x$~increases, then $\cos\phi$ must be +positive. Hence the upper signs will hold if $q$~has a negative value, and the lower +signs if $q$~has a positive value. When $x$~decreases, the contrary is true. + +\Par{II.} By means of the sign of the change in~$y$. If $y$~increases, the upper signs +must be taken when $p$~is positive, the lower when $p$~is negative. The contrary is +true when $y$~decreases. + +\Par{III.} By means of the sign of the value which the function~$V$ takes for points +not on the curve. Let $\delta x$,~$\delta y$ be the variations of $x$,~$y$ when we go out from the +\PageSep{85} +curve toward the right, at right angles to the tangent, that is, in the direction~$\phi + 90°$; +and let the length of this normal be~$\delta\rho$. Then, evidently, we have +\begin{align*} +\delta x &= \delta\rho·\cos(\phi + 90°), \\ +\delta y &= \delta\rho·\sin(\phi + 90°), +\end{align*} +or +\begin{align*} +\delta x &= -\delta\rho·\sin\phi, \\ +\delta y &= +\delta\rho·\cos\phi. +\end{align*} +Since now, when $\delta\rho$~is infinitely small, +\begin{align*} +\delta V &= p\, \delta x + q\, \delta y \\ + &= (-p\sin\phi + q\cos\phi)\, \delta\rho \\ + &= \mp\delta\rho\Sqrt{p^{2} + q^{2}}\Add{,} +\end{align*} +and since on the curve itself $V$~vanishes, the upper signs will hold if~$V$, on passing +through the curve from left to right, changes from positive to negative, and the contrary. +If we combine this with what is said at the end of \Art{2}, it follows that the +curve is always convex toward that side on which $V$~receives the same sign as +\[ +Pq^{2} - 2Qpq + Rp^{2}. +\] + +For example, if the curve is a circle, and if we set +\[ +V = x^{2} + y^{2} - a^{2}\Add{,} +\] +then we have +\begin{gather*} +p = 2x,\qquad q = 2y, \\ +P = 2,\qquad Q = 0,\qquad R = 2, \\ +Pq^{2} - 2Qpq + Rp^{2} = 8y^{2} + 8x^{2} = 8a^{2}, \\ +(p^{2} + q^{2})^{3/2} = 8a^{3}, \\ +r = ± a\Add{;} +\end{gather*} +and the curve will be convex toward that side for which +\[ +x^{2} + y^{2} > a^{2}, +\] +as it should be. + +The side toward which the curve is convex, or, what is the same thing, the signs +in the above formulæ, will remain unchanged by moving along the curve, so long as +\[ +\frac{\delta V}{\delta\rho} +\] +does not change its sign. Since $V$~is a continuous function, such a change can take +place only when this ratio passes through the value zero. But this necessarily presupposes +that $p$~and~$q$ become zero at the same time. At such a point the radius +\PageSep{86} +of curvature becomes infinite or the curvature vanishes. Then, generally speaking, +since here +\[ +-p\sin\phi + q\cos\phi +\] +will change its sign, we have here a point of inflexion. + + +\Article{5.} + +The case where the nature of the curve is expressed by setting $y$~equal to a +given function of~$x$, namely, $y = X$, is included in the foregoing, if we set +\[ +V = X - y. +\] +If we put +\[ +dX = X'\, dx,\qquad +dX' = X''\, dx, +\] +then we have +\begin{gather*} +p = X',\qquad q = -1, \\ +P = X'', \qquad Q = 0,\qquad R = 0, +\end{gather*} +therefore +\[ +±\frac{1}{r} = \frac{X''}{(1 + X'^{2})^{3/2}}. +\] +Since $q$~is negative here, the upper sign holds for increasing values of~$x$. We can +therefore say, briefly, that for a positive~$X''$ the curve is concave toward the same +side toward which the $y$-axis lies with reference to the $x$-axis; while for a negative~$X''$ +the curve is convex toward this side. + + +\Article{6.} + +If we regard $x$,~$y$ as functions of~$s$, these formulæ become still more elegant. +Let us set +\begin{alignat*}{2} +\frac{dx}{ds} &= x',\qquad& \frac{dx'}{ds} &= x'', \\ +\frac{dy}{ds} &= y',\qquad& \frac{dy'}{ds} &= y''. +\end{alignat*} +Then we shall have +\begin{alignat*}{2} +x' &= \cos\phi,\qquad & y' &= \sin\phi, \\ +x'' &= -\frac{\sin\phi}{r},\qquad & y'' &= \frac{\cos\phi}{r}; +\intertext{or} +y' &= -rx'',\qquad& x' &= ry'', +\end{alignat*} +\PageSep{87} +or also +\[ +1 = r(x'y'' - y'x''), +\] +so that +\[ +x'y'' - y'x'' +\] +represents the curvature, and +\[ +\frac{1}{x'y'' - y'x''} +\] +the radius of curvature. + + +\Article{7.} + +We shall now proceed to the consideration of curved surfaces. In order to represent +the directions of straight lines in space considered in its three dimensions, we +imagine a sphere of unit radius described about an arbitrary centre. Accordingly, a +point on this sphere will represent the direction of all straight lines parallel to the +radius whose extremity is at this point. As the positions of all points in space +are determined by the perpendicular distances $x$,~$y$,~$z$ from three mutually perpendicular +planes, the directions of the three principal axes, which are normal to these +principal planes, shall be represented on the auxiliary sphere by the three points +$(1)$,~$(2)$,~$(3)$. These points are, therefore, always $90°$~apart, and at once indicate the +sense in which the coordinates are supposed to increase. We shall here state several +well known theorems, of which constant use will be made. + +\Par{1)} The angle between two intersecting straight lines is measured by the arc [of +the great circle] between the points on the sphere which represent their directions. + +\Par{2)} The orientation of every plane can be represented on the sphere by means +of the great circle in which the sphere is cut by the plane through the centre parallel +to the first plane. + +\Par{3)} The angle between two planes is equal to the angle between the great circles +which represent their orientations, and is therefore also measured by the angle +between the poles of the great circles. + +\Par{4)} If $x$,~$y$,~$z$; $x'$,~$y'$,~$z'$ are the coordinates of two points, $r$~the distance between +them, and $L$~the point on the sphere which represents the direction of the straight +line drawn from the first point to the second, then +\begin{alignat*}{2} +x' &= x &&+ r\cos(1)L, \\ +y' &= y &&+ r\cos(2)L, \\ +2' &= z &&+ r\cos(3)L. +\end{alignat*} + +\Par{5)} It follows immediately from this that we always have +\[ +\cos^{2}(1)L + \cos^{2}(2)L + \cos^{2}(3)L = 1 +\] +\PageSep{88} +[and] also, if $L'$~is any other point on the sphere, +\[ +\cos(1)L·\cos(1)L' + \cos(2)L·\cos(2)L' + \cos(3)L·\cos(3)L' = \cos LL'. +\] + +We shall add here another theorem, which has appeared nowhere else, as far as +we know, and which can often be used with advantage. + +Let $L$, $L'$, $L''$, $L'''$ be four points on the sphere, and $A$~the angle which $LL'''$ +and $L'L''$ make at their point of intersection. [Then we have] +\[ +\cos LL'·\cos L''L''' - \cos LL''·\cos L'L''' = \sin LL'''·\sin L'L''·\cos A. +\] + +The proof is easily obtained in the following way. Let +\[ +AL = t,\qquad +AL' = t',\qquad +AL'' = t'',\qquad +AL''' = t'''; +\] +we have then +\begin{alignat*}{6} +&\cos L L' &&= \cos t &&\cos t' &&+ \sin t &&\sin t' &&\cos A, \\ +&\cos L''L''' &&= \cos t''&&\cos t''' &&+ \sin t''&&\sin t'''&&\cos A, \\ +&\cos L L'' &&= \cos t &&\cos t'' &&+ \sin t &&\sin t'' &&\cos A, \\ +&\cos L' L''' &&= \cos t' &&\cos t''' &&+ \sin t' &&\sin t'''&&\cos A. +\end{alignat*} +Therefore +\begin{multline*} +\cos LL' \cos L''L''' - \cos LL'' \cos L'L'' \\ +\begin{aligned} +&= \cos A \{\cos t \cos t' \sin t''\sin t''' + + \cos t''\cos t'''\sin t \sin t' \\ +&\qquad\qquad + - \cos t\cos t''\sin t'\sin t''' - \cos t'\cos t'''\sin t\sin t''\} \\ +&= \cos A (\cos t \sin t''' - \cos t'''\sin t) + (\cos t'\sin t'' - \cos t'' \sin t') \\ +&= \cos A \sin (t''' - t) \sin(t'' - t') \\ +&= \cos A \sin LL''' \sin L'L''. +\end{aligned} +\end{multline*} + +Since each of the two great circles goes out from~$A$ in two opposite directions, +two supplementary angles are formed at this point. But it is seen from our analysis +that those branches must be chosen, which go in the same sense from~$L$ toward~$L'''$ +and from $L'$~toward~$L''$. + +Instead of the angle~$A$, we can take also the distance of the pole of the great +circle~$LL'''$ from the pole of the great circle~$L'L''$. However, since every great circle +has two poles, we see that we must join those about which the great circles run in +the same sense from~$L$ toward~$L'''$ and from~$L'$ toward~$L''$, respectively. + +The development of the special case, where one or both of the arcs $LL'''$~and~$L'L''$ are~$90°$, we leave to the reader. + +\Par{6)} Another useful theorem is obtained from the following analysis. Let $L$,~$L'$,~$L''$ +be three points upon the sphere and put +\PageSep{89} +\begin{alignat*}{6} +&\cos L &&(1) = x, &&\cos L &&(2) = y, &&\cos L &&(3) = z, \\ +&\cos L' &&(1) = x', &&\cos L' &&(2) = y', &&\cos L' &&(3) = z', \\ +&\cos L''&&(1) = x'',\quad&&\cos L'' &&(2) = y'',\quad&&\cos L'' &&(3) = z''. +\end{alignat*} + +We assume that the points are so arranged that they run around the triangle +included by them in the same sense as the points $(1)$,~$(2)$,~$(3)$. Further, let $\lambda$~be +that pole of the great circle~$L'L''$ which lies on the same side as~$L$. We then have, +from the above lemma, +\begin{alignat*}{3} +&y'z'' &&- z'y'' &&= \sin L'L''·\cos\lambda(1), \\ +&z'x'' &&- x'z'' &&= \sin L'L''·\cos\lambda(2), \\ +&x'y'' &&- y'x'' &&= \sin L'L''·\cos\lambda(3). +\end{alignat*} +Therefore, if we multiply these equations by $x$,~$y$,~$z$ respectively, and add the products, +we obtain\Note{34} +\[ +xy'z'' + x'y''z + x''yz' - xy''z' - x'yz'' - x''y'z + = \sin L'L''·\cos\lambda L,\NoteMark +\] +wherefore, we can write also, according to well known principles of spherical trigonometry, +\begin{alignat*}{2} + \sin L'L''·&\sin L L''&&·\sin L' \\ += \sin L'L''·&\sin L L' &&·\sin L'' \\ += \sin L'L''·&\sin L'L''&&·\sin L, +\end{alignat*} +if $L$,~$L'$,~$L''$ denote the three angles of the spherical triangle. At the same time we +easily see that this value is one-sixth of the pyramid whose angular points are the +centre of the sphere and the three points $L$,~$L'$,~$L''$ (and indeed \emph{positive}, if~etc.). + + +\Article{8.} + +The nature of a curved surface is defined by an equation between the coordinates +of its points, which we represent by +\[ +f(x, y, z) = 0.\NoteMark +\] +Let the total differential of $f(x, y, z)$ be +\[ +P\, dx + Q\, dy + R\, dz, +\] +where $P$,~$Q$,~$R$ are functions of $x$,~$y$,~$z$. We shall always distinguish two sides of the +surface, one of which we shall call the upper, and the other the lower. Generally +speaking, on passing through the surface the value of~$f$ changes its sign, so that, as +long as the continuity is not interrupted, the values are positive on one side and negative +on the other. +\PageSep{90} + +The direction of the normal to the surface toward that side which we regard as +the upper side is represented upon the auxiliary sphere by the point~$L$. Let +\[ +\cos L(1) = X,\qquad +\cos L(2) = Y,\qquad +\cos L(3) = Z. +\] +Also let $ds$~denote an infinitely small line upon the surface; and, as its direction is +denoted by the point~$\lambda$ on the sphere, let +\[ +\cos \lambda(1) = \xi,\qquad +\cos \lambda(2) = \eta,\qquad +\cos \lambda(3) = \zeta. +\] +We then have +\[ +dx = \xi\, ds,\qquad +dy = \eta\, ds,\qquad +dz = \zeta\, ds, +\] +therefore +\[ +P\xi + Q\eta + R\zeta = 0, +\] +and, since $\lambda L$ must be equal to~$90°$, we have also +\[ +X\xi + Y\eta + Z\zeta = 0. +\] +Since $P$,~$Q$,~$R$, $X$,~$Y$,~$Z$ depend only on the position of the surface on which we take +the element, and since these equations hold for every direction of the element on the +surface, it is easily seen that $P$,~$Q$,~$R$ must be proportional to $X$,~$Y$,~$Z$. Therefore +\[ +P = X\mu,\qquad +Q = Y\mu,\qquad +R = Z\mu\Typo{,}{.} +\] +Therefore, since +\begin{gather*} +X^{2} + Y^{2} + Z^{2} = 1; \\ +\mu = PX + QY + RZ +\intertext{and} +\mu^{2} = P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}, \\ +\intertext{or} +\mu = ±\Sqrt{P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}}. +\end{gather*} + +If we go out from the surface, in the direction of the normal, a distance equal to +the element~$\delta\rho$, then we shall have +\[ +\delta x = X\, \delta\rho,\qquad +\delta y = Y\, \delta\rho,\qquad +\delta z = Z\, \delta\rho +\] +and +\[ +\delta f = P\, \delta x + Q\, \delta y + R\, \delta z = \mu\, \delta\rho. +\] +We see, therefore, how the sign of~$\mu$ depends on the change of sign of the value of~$f$ +in passing from the lower to the upper side. + + +\Article{9.} + +Let us cut the curved surface by a plane through the point to which our notation +refers; then we obtain a plane curve of which $ds$~is an element, in connection +with which we shall retain the above notation. We shall regard as the upper side of +the plane that one on which the normal to the curved surface lies. Upon this plane +\PageSep{91} +we erect a normal whose direction is expressed by the point~$\L$ of the auxiliary +sphere. By moving along the curved line, $\lambda$~and~$L$ will therefore change their positions, +while $\L$~remains constant, and $\lambda L$~and~$\lambda\L$ are always equal to~$90°$. Therefore +$\lambda$~describes the great circle one of whose poles is~$\L$. The element of this great circle +will be equal to~$\dfrac{ds}{r}$, if $r$~denotes the radius of curvature of the curve. And again, +if we denote the direction of this element upon the sphere by~$\lambda'$, then $\lambda'$~will evidently +lie in the same great circle and be $90°$~from~$\lambda$ as well as from~$\L$. If we +now set +\[ +\cos \lambda'(1) = \xi',\qquad +\cos \lambda'(2) = \eta',\qquad +\cos \lambda'(3) = \zeta', +\] +then we shall have +\[ +d\xi = \xi'\, \frac{ds}{r},\qquad +d\eta = \eta'\, \frac{ds}{r},\qquad +d\zeta = \zeta'\, \frac{ds}{r}, +\] +since, in fact, $\xi$,~$\eta$,~$\zeta$ are merely the coordinates of the point~$\lambda$ referred to the centre +of the sphere. + +Since by the solution of the equation $f(x, y, z) = 0$ the coordinate~$z$ may be +expressed in the form of a function of $x$,~$y$, we shall, for greater simplicity, assume +that this has been done and that we have found +\[ +z = F(x, y). +\] +We can then write as the equation of the surface +\[ +z - F(x, y) = 0, +\] +or +\[ +f(x, y, z) = z - F(x, y). +\] + +From this follows, if we set +\begin{gather*} +dF(x, y) = t\, dx + u\, dy, \\ +P = -t,\qquad +Q = -u,\qquad +R = 1, +\end{gather*} +where $t$,~$u$ are merely functions of $x$~and~$y$. We set also +\[ +dt = T\, dx + U\, dy,\qquad +du = U\, dx + V\, dy. +\] + +Therefore upon the whole surface we have +\[ +dz = t\, dx + u\, dy +\] +and therefore, on the curve, +\[ +\zeta = t\xi + u\eta. +\] +Hence differentiation gives, on substituting the above values for $d\xi$,~$d\eta$,~$d\zeta$, +\begin{align*} +(\zeta' - t\xi' - u\eta') \frac{ds}{r} + &= \xi\, dt + \eta\, du \\ + &= (\xi^{2}T + 2\xi\eta U + \eta^{2}V)\, ds, +\end{align*} +\PageSep{92} +or +\begin{align*} +\frac{1}{r} + &= \frac{\xi^{2}T + 2\xi\eta U + \eta^{2}V}{-\xi' t - \eta'\Typo{\mu}{u} + \zeta'} \\ + &= \frac{Z(\xi^{2}T + 2\xi\eta U + \eta^{2}V)}{X\xi' - Y\eta' + Z\zeta'} \\ + &= \frac{Z(\xi^{2}T + 2\xi\eta U + \eta^{2}V)}{\cos L\lambda'}. +\end{align*} + + +\Article{10.} + +Before we further transform the expression just found, we will make a few +remarks about it. + +A normal to a curve in its plane corresponds to two directions upon the sphere, +according as we draw it on the one or the other side of the curve. The one direction, +toward which the curve is \emph{concave}, is denoted by~$\lambda'$, the other by the opposite +point on the sphere. Both these points, like $L$~and~$\L$, are $90°$~from~$\lambda$, and therefore +lie in a great circle. And since $\L$~is also $90°$~from~$\lambda$, $\L L = 90° - L\lambda'$, or +$= L\lambda' - 90°$. Therefore +\[ +\cos L\lambda' = ±\sin \L L, +\] +where $\sin \L L$ is necessarily positive. Since $r$~is regarded as positive in our analysis, +the sign of~$\cos L\lambda'$ will be the same as that of +\[ +Z(\xi^{2}T + 2\xi\eta U + \eta^{2}V). +\] +And therefore a positive value of this last expression means that $L\lambda'$~is less than~$90°$, +or that the curve is concave toward the side on which lies the projection of the +normal to the surface upon the plane. A negative value, on the contrary, shows that +the curve is convex toward this side. Therefore, in general, we may set also +\[ +\frac{1}{r} = \frac{Z(\xi^{2}T + 2\xi\eta U + \eta^{2}V)}{\sin \L L}, +\] +if we regard the radius of curvature as positive in the first case, and negative in +the second. $\L L$~is here the angle which our cutting plane makes with the plane +tangent to the curved surface, and we see that in the different cutting planes passed +through the same point and the same tangent the radii of curvature are proportional +to the sine of the inclination. Because of this simple relation, we shall limit ourselves +hereafter to the case where this angle is a right angle, and where the cutting +\PageSep{93} +plane, therefore, is passed through the normal of the curved surface. Hence we have +for the radius of curvature the simple formula +\[ +\frac{1}{r} = Z(\xi^{2}T + 2\xi\eta U + \eta^{2}V). +\] + + +\Article{11.} + +Since an infinite number of planes may be passed through this normal, it follows +that there may be infinitely many different values of the radius of curvature. In this +case $T$,~$U$,~$V$,~$Z$ are regarded as constant, $\xi$,~$\eta$,~$\zeta$ as variable. In order to make the +latter depend upon a single variable, we take two fixed points $M$,~$M'$ $90°$~apart on the +great circle whose pole is~$L$. Let their coordinates referred to the centre of the sphere +be $\alpha$,~$\beta$,~$\gamma$; $\alpha'$,~$\beta'$,~$\gamma'$. We have then +\[ +\cos\lambda(1) + = \cos\lambda M ·\cos M(1) + + \cos\lambda M'·\cos M'(1) + + \cos\lambda L ·\cos L(1). +\] +If we set +\[ +\lambda M = \phi, +\] +then we have +\[ +\cos\lambda M' = \sin\phi, +\] +and the formula becomes +\begin{align*} +\xi &= \alpha\cos\phi + \alpha'\sin\phi, +\intertext{and likewise} +\eta &= \beta \cos\phi + \beta' \sin\phi, \\ +\zeta &= \gamma\cos\phi + \gamma'\sin\phi. +\end{align*} + +Therefore, if we set\Note{35} +\begin{align*} +A &= (\alpha^{2}T + 2\alpha\beta U + \beta^{2}V)Z, \\ +B &= (\alpha\alpha'T + (\alpha'\beta + \alpha\beta')U + \beta\beta'V)Z,\NoteMark \\ +C &= (\alpha'^{2}T + 2\alpha'\beta' U + \beta'^{2}V)Z, +\end{align*} +we shall have +\begin{align*} +\frac{1}{r} + &= A\cos^{2}\phi + 2B\cos\phi \sin\phi + C\sin^{2}\phi \\ + &= \frac{A + C}{2} + \frac{A - C}{2}\cos 2\phi + B\sin 2\phi. +\end{align*} +If we put +\begin{align*} +\frac{A - C}{2} &= E\cos 2\theta, \\ +B &= E\sin 2\theta, +\end{align*} +\PageSep{94} +where we may assume that $E$~has the same sign as~$\dfrac{A - C}{2}$, then we have +\[ +\frac{1}{r} = \tfrac{1}{2}(A + C) + E\cos 2(\phi - \theta). +\] +It is evident that $\phi$~denotes the angle between the cutting plane and another plane +through this normal and that tangent which corresponds to the direction~$M$. Evidently, +therefore, $\dfrac{1}{r}$~takes its greatest (absolute) value, or $r$~its smallest, when $\phi = \theta$; and $\dfrac{1}{r}$~its +smallest absolute value, when $\phi = \theta + 90°$. Therefore the greatest and the least +curvatures occur in two planes perpendicular to each other. Hence these extreme +values for~$\dfrac{1}{r}$ are +\[ +\tfrac{1}{2}(A + C) ± \SQRT{\left(\frac{A - C}{2}\right)^{2} + B^{2}}. +\] +Their sum is $A + C$ and their product $AC - B^{2}$, or the product of the two extreme +radii of curvature is +\[ += \frac{1}{AC - B^{2}}. +\] +This product, which is of great importance, merits a more rigorous development. +In fact, from formulæ above we find +\[ +AC - B^{2} = (\alpha\beta' -\beta\alpha')^{2}(TV - U^{2})Z^{2}. +\] +But from the third formula in [Theorem]~6, \Art{7}, we easily infer that\Note{36} +\[ +\alpha\beta' - \beta\alpha' = ±Z,\NoteMark +\] +therefore +\[ +AC - B^{2} = Z^{4}(TV - U^{2}). +\] +Besides, from \Art{8}, +\begin{align*} +Z &= ±\frac{R}{\Sqrt{P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}}} \\ + &= ±\frac{1}{\Sqrt{1 + t^{2} + u^{2}}}, +\end{align*} +therefore +\[ +AC - B^{2} = \frac{TV - U^{2}}{(1 + t^{2} + u^{2})^{2}}. +\] + +Just as to \emph{each} point on the curved surface corresponds a particular point~$L$ on +the auxiliary sphere, by means of the normal erected at this point and the radius of +\PageSep{95} +the auxiliary sphere parallel to the normal, so the aggregate of the points on the +auxiliary sphere, which correspond to all the points of a \emph{line} on the curved surface, +forms a line which will correspond to the line on the curved surface. And, likewise, +to every finite figure on the curved surface will correspond a finite figure on the +auxiliary sphere, the area of which upon the latter shall be regarded as the measure +of the amplitude of the former. We shall either regard this area as a number, in +which case the square of the radius of the auxiliary sphere is the unit, or else +express it in degrees,~etc., setting the area of the hemisphere equal to~$360°$. + +The comparison of the area upon the curved surface with the corresponding +amplitude leads to the idea of what we call the measure of curvature of the surface. +If the former is proportional to the latter, the curvature is called uniform; +and the quotient, when we divide the amplitude by the surface, is called the measure +of curvature. This is the case when the curved surface is a sphere, and the measure +of curvature is then a fraction whose numerator is unity and whose denominator is +the square of the radius. + +We shall regard the measure of curvature as positive, if the boundaries of the +figures upon the curved surface and upon the auxiliary sphere run in the same sense; +as negative, if the boundaries enclose the figures in contrary senses. If they are not +proportional, the surface is \Typo{non-uniformily}{non-uniformly} curved. And at each point there exists a +particular measure of curvature, which is obtained from the comparison of corresponding +infinitesimal parts upon the curved surface and the auxiliary sphere.

Since the curved line lies upon a given curved surface whose equation is +\[ +P\, dx + Q\, dy + R\, dz = 0, +\] +the equation between the variations $\delta x$,~$\delta y$,~$\delta z$ +\[ +P\, \delta z + Q\, \delta y + R\, \delta z = 0 +\] +must also hold. From this, by means of well known principles, we easily conclude +that the differentials +\PageSep{98} +\begin{gather*} + d·\frac{\dfrac{dx}{dw}} + {\SQRT{\left(\dfrac{dx}{dw}\right)^{2} + + \left(\dfrac{dy}{dw}\right)^{2} + + \left(\dfrac{dz}{dw}\right)^{2}}}, \\ + d·\frac{\dfrac{dy}{dw}} + {\SQRT{\left(\dfrac{dx}{dw}\right)^{2} + + \left(\dfrac{dy}{dw}\right)^{2} + + \left(\dfrac{dz}{dw}\right)^{2}}}, \\ + d·\frac{\dfrac{dz}{dw}} + {\SQRT{\left(\dfrac{dx}{dw}\right)^{2} + + \left(\dfrac{dy}{dw}\right)^{2} + + \left(\dfrac{dz}{dw}\right)^{2}}} +\end{gather*} +must be proportional to the quantities $P$,~$Q$,~$R$ respectively. If $ds$~is an element of +the curve; $\lambda$~the point upon the auxiliary sphere, which represents the direction of +this element; $L$~the point giving the direction of the normal as above; and $\xi$,~$\eta$,~$\zeta$; +$X$,~$Y$,~$Z$ the coordinates of the points $\lambda$,~$L$ referred to the centre of the auxiliary +sphere, then we have +\begin{gather*} +dx = \xi\, ds,\qquad +dy = \eta\, ds,\qquad +dz = \zeta\, ds, \\ +\xi^{2} + \eta^{2} + \zeta^{2} = 1. +\end{gather*} +Therefore we see that the above differentials will be equal to $d\xi$,~$d\eta$,~$d\zeta$. And since +$P$,~$Q$,~$R$ are proportional to the quantities $X$,~$Y$,~$Z$, the character of the shortest line +is such that +\[ +\frac{d\xi}{X} = \frac{d\eta}{Y} = \frac{d\zeta}{Z}. +\] + + +\Article{13.} + +To every point of a curved line upon a curved surface there correspond two +points on the sphere, according to our point of view; namely, the point~$\lambda$, which +represents the direction of the linear element, and the point~$L$, which represents the +direction of the normal to the surface. The two are evidently $90°$~apart. In our +former investigation (\Art{9}), where [we] supposed the curved line to lie in a plane, +we had \emph{two} other points upon the sphere; namely,~$\L$, which represents the direction +of the normal to the plane, and~$\lambda'$, which represents the direction of the normal to +the element of the curve in the plane. In this case, therefore, $\L$~was a fixed point +and $\lambda$,~$\lambda'$ were always in a great circle whose pole was~$\L$. In generalizing these +considerations, we shall retain the notation $\L$,~$\lambda'$, but we must define the meaning of +these symbols from a more general point of view. When the curve~$s$ is described, +the points $L$,~$\lambda$ also describe curved lines upon the auxiliary sphere, which, generally +speaking, are no longer great circles. Parallel to the element of the second line, +\PageSep{99} +we draw a radius of the auxiliary sphere to the point~$\lambda'$, but instead of this point +we take the point opposite when $\lambda'$~is more than~$90°$ from~$L$. In the first case, we +regard the element at~$\lambda$ as positive, and in the other as negative. Finally, let $\L$ be +the point on the auxiliary sphere, which is $90°$~from both $\lambda$~and~$\lambda'$, and which is so +taken that $\lambda$,~$\lambda'$,~$\L$ lie in the same order as $(1)$,~$(2)$,~$(3)$. + +The coordinates of the four points of the auxiliary sphere, referred to its centre, +are for +\begin{alignat*}{4} +&L\qquad &&X\quad &&Y\quad &&Z \\ +&\lambda &&\xi &&\eta &&\zeta \\ +&\lambda'&&\xi' &&\eta' &&\zeta' \\ +&\L &&\alpha &&\beta &&\gamma. +\end{alignat*} +Hence each of these $4$~points describes a line upon the auxiliary sphere, whose elements +we shall express by $dL$,~$d\lambda$,~$d\lambda'$,~$d\L$. We have, therefore, +\begin{align*} +d\xi &= \xi'\, d\lambda, \\ +d\eta &= \eta'\, d\lambda, \\ +d\zeta &= \zeta'\, d\lambda. +\end{align*} +In an analogous way we now call +\[ +\frac{d\lambda}{ds} +\] +the measure of curvature of the curved line upon the curved surface, and its reciprocal +\[ +\frac{ds}{d\lambda} +\] +the radius of curvature. If we denote the latter by~$\rho$, then +\begin{align*} +\rho\, d\xi &= \xi'\, ds, \\ +\rho\, d\eta &= \eta'\, ds, \\ +\rho\, d\zeta &= \zeta'\, ds. +\end{align*} + +If, therefore, our line be a shortest line, $\xi'$,~$\eta'$,~$\zeta'$ must be proportional to the +quantities $X$,~$Y$,~$Z$. But, since at the same time +\[ +\xi'^{2} + \eta'^{2} + \zeta'^{2} = X^{2} + Y^{2} + Z^{2} = 1, +\] +we have +\[ +\xi' = ±X,\quad +\eta' = ±Y,\quad +\zeta' = ±Z, +\] +and since, further, +\begin{align*} +\xi'X + \eta'Y + \zeta'Z + &= \cos \lambda'L \\ + &= ±(X^{2} + Y^{2} + Z^{2}) \\ + &= ±1, +\end{align*} +\PageSep{100} +and since we always choose the point~$\lambda'$ so that +\[ +\lambda'L < 90°, +\] +then for the shortest line +\[ +\lambda'L = 0, +\] +or $\lambda'$~and~$L$ must coincide. Therefore +\begin{align*} +\rho\, d\xi &= X\, ds, \\ +\rho\, d\eta &= Y\, ds, \\ +\rho\, d\zeta &= Z\, ds, +\end{align*} +and we have here, instead of $4$~curved lines upon the auxiliary sphere, only $3$~to consider. +Every element of the second line is therefore to be regarded as lying in the +great circle~$L\lambda$. And the positive or negative value of~$\rho$ refers to the concavity +or the convexity of the curve in the direction of the normal. + + +\Article{14.} + +We shall now investigate the spherical angle upon the auxiliary sphere, which +the great circle going from~$L$ toward~$\lambda$ makes with that one going from~$L$ toward +one of the fixed points $(1)$,~$(2)$,~$(3)$; \eg, toward~$(3)$. In order to have something +definite here, we shall consider the sense from~$L(3)$ to~$L\lambda$ the same as that in which +$(1)$,~$(2)$, and~$(3)$ lie.

INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the +trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone +providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance +with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production, +promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works, +harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees, +that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do +or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm +work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any +Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause. + + +Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm + +Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of +electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers +including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists +because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from +people in all walks of life. + +Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the +assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's +goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will +remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive +Foundation + +The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit +501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the +state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal +Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification +number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at +http://pglaf.org/fundraising. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent +permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws. + +The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S. +Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered +throughout numerous locations. Its business office is located at +809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email +business@pglaf.org. Email contact links and up to date contact +information can be found at the Foundation's web site and official +page at http://pglaf.org + +For additional contact information: + Dr. Gregory B. Newby + Chief Executive and Director + gbnewby@pglaf.org + + +Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + http://www.gutenberg.net + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. +\end{PGtext} + +% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % +% % +% End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of General Investigations of Curved % +% Surfaces of 1827 and 1825, by Karl Friedrich Gauss % +% % +% *** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK INVESTIGATIONS OF CURVED SURFACES *** +% % +% ***** This file should be named 36856-tex.tex or 36856-tex.zip ***** % +% This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: % +% http://www.gutenberg.org/3/6/8/5/36856/ % +% % +% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % + +\end{document} +### +@ControlwordReplace = ( + ['\\Introduction', 'Introduction'], + ['\\Contents', 'Contents'], + ['\\Notes', 'Notes'], + ['\\BibliographyPage', 'Bibliography'], + ['\\end{Theorem}', ''], + ['\\end{Bibliography}', ''], + ['\\tb', '-----'], + ['\\ie', 'i.e.'], + ['\\eg', 'e.g.'], + ['\\Cf', 'Cf.'], + ['\\QEA', 'Q.E.A.'] + ); + +@ControlwordArguments = ( + ['\\setlength', 1, 0, '', '', 1, 0, '', ''], + ['\\SetRunningHeads', 1, 0, '', '', 1, 0, '', ''], + ['\\BookMark', 1, 0, '', '', 1, 0, '', ''], + ['\\Article', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\Par', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\Abstract', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\ToCLine', 1, 1, '', '', 1, 0, '', ''], + ['\\Signature', 1, 1, '', ' ', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\Publication', 1, 1, '', ' ', 1, 1, '', ' ', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\Author', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\Title', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\LineRef', 0, 0, '', '', 1, 0, '', '', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\LineRefs', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\Art', 1, 1, 'Art.

A list of +the editions and translations of the Paper of~1827 follows. There are three editions +in Latin, two translations into French, and two into German.

With the signatures +changed, and the paging changed to pages~1--50, I\textit{a}~also appears with the title page +added: + +I\textit{b}. \Publication{Disquisitiones generales circa superficies curvas} +{auctore Carolo Friderico Gauss.} +{Gottingæ.

A third Latin edition of this paper stands in: Gauss, \Title{Werke, Herausgegeben +von der Königlichen Gesellschaft der Wissenschaften zu Göttingen}, Vol.~4, Göttingen, +1873, pages~217--258, without change of the title of the original paper~(I\textit{a}). + +III\textit{b}.

The excellent edition of +Professor Wangerin,~VII, has been used throughout most freely for the text and +notes, even when special notice of this is not made. It has been the endeavor of +the translators to retain as far as possible the notation, the form and punctuation of +the formulæ, and the general style of the original papers. Some changes have been +made in order to conform to more recent notations, and the most important of those +are mentioned in the notes. +\PageSep{v} + +%[** TN: Paragraph not indented in the original] +The second paper, the translation of which is here given, is the abstract (Anzeige) +which Gauss presented in German to the Royal Society of Göttingen, and which was +published in the Göttingische gelehrte Anzeigen. Stück~177. Pages 1761--1768. 1827. +November~5. It has been translated into English from pages 341--347 of the fourth +volume of Gauss's Works. This abstract is in the nature of a note on the Paper of~1827, +and is printed before the notes on that paper. + +Recently the eighth volume of Gauss's Works has appeared. This contains on +pages 408--442 the paper which Gauss wrote out, but did not publish, in~1825. This +paper may be called the \Title{New General Investigations of Curved Surfaces}, or the Paper +of~1825, to distinguish it from the Paper of~1827. The Paper of~1825 shows the +manner in which many of the ideas were evolved, and while incomplete and in some +cases inconsistent, nevertheless, when taken in connection with the Paper of~1827, +shows the development of these ideas in the mind of Gauss. In both papers are +found the method of the spherical representation, and, as types, the three important +theorems: The measure of curvature is equal to the product of the reciprocals of the +principal radii of curvature of the surface, The measure of curvature remains unchanged +by a mere bending of the surface, The excess of the sum of the angles of a geodesic +triangle is measured by the area of the corresponding triangle on the auxiliary sphere. +But in the Paper of~1825 the first six sections, more than one-fifth of the whole paper, +take up the consideration of theorems on curvature in a plane, as an introduction, +before the ideas are used in space; whereas the Paper of~1827 takes up these ideas +for space only. Moreover, while Gauss introduces the geodesic polar coordinates in +the Paper of~1825, in the Paper of~1827 he uses the general coordinates, $p$,~$q$, thus +introducing a new method, as well as employing the principles used by Monge and +others. + +The publication of this translation has been made possible by the liberality of +the Princeton Library Publishing Association and of the Alumni of the University +who founded the Mathematical Seminary. + +\Signature{H.

As the position of every point in space is determined +by three coordinates, that is to say, the distances of the point from three mutually +perpendicular fixed planes, it is necessary to consider, first of all, the directions of the +axes perpendicular to these planes. The points on the sphere, which represent these +directions, we shall denote by $(1)$,~$(2)$,~$(3)$. The distance of any one of these points +from either of the other two will be a quadrant; and we shall suppose that the directions +of the axes are those in which the corresponding coordinates increase. + + +\Article{2.} +It will be advantageous to bring together here some propositions which are frequently +used in questions of this kind. + +\Par{I.} The angle between two intersecting straight lines is measured by the arc +between the points on the sphere which correspond to the directions of the lines. + +\Par{II.}\Note{1} The orientation of any plane whatever can be represented by the great circle +on the sphere, the plane of which is parallel to the given plane. +\PageSep{4} + +\Par{III.} The angle between two planes is equal to the spherical angle between the +great circles representing them, and, consequently, is also measured by the arc intercepted +between the poles of these great circles. And, in like manner, the angle of inclination +of a straight line to a plane is measured by the arc drawn from the point which +corresponds to the direction of the line, perpendicular to the great circle which represents +the orientation of the plane. + +\Par{IV.} Letting $x$,~$y$,~$z$; $x'$,~$y'$,~$z'$ denote the coordinates of two points, $r$~the distance +between them, and $L$~the point on the sphere which represents the direction of the line +drawn from the first point to the second, we shall have +\begin{align*} +x' &= x + r \cos(1)L\Add{,} \\ +y' &= y + r \cos(2)L\Add{,} \\ +z' &= z + r \cos(3)L\Add{.} +\end{align*} + +\Par{V.} From this it follows at once that, generally,\Note{2} +\[ +\cos^{2}(1)L + \cos^{2}(2)L + \cos^{2}(3)L = 1\Add{,} +\] +and also, if $L'$~denote any other point on the sphere, +\[ +\cos(1)L·\cos(1)L' + \cos(2)L·\cos(2)L' + \cos(3)L·\cos(3)L' + = \cos LL'. +\] + +\Par{VI.}\Note{4} \begin{Theorem} +If $L$, $L'$, $L''$, $L'''$ denote four points on the sphere, and $A$~the angle +which the arcs $LL'$, $L''L'''$ make at their point of intersection, then we shall have +\[ +\cos LL''·\cos L'L''' - \cos LL'''·\cos L'L'' + = \sin LL'·\sin L''L'''·\cos A\Add{.} +\] +\end{Theorem} + +\textit{Demonstration.} Let $A$ denote also the point of intersection itself, and set +\[ +AL = t,\quad AL' = t',\quad AL'' = t'',\quad AL''' = t'''\Add{.} +\] +Then we shall have +\begin{alignat*}{7} +&\cos L L'' &&= \cos t\Chg{·}{}&& \cos t'' &&+ \sin t && \sin t'' && \cos A\Add{,} \\ +&\cos L'L''' &&= \cos t' && \cos t''' &&+ \sin t' && \sin t''' && \cos A\Add{,} \\ +&\cos L L''' &&= \cos t && \cos t''' &&+ \sin t && \sin t''' && \cos A\Add{,} \\ +&\cos L'L'' &&= \cos t' && \cos t'' &&+ \sin t' && \sin t'' && \cos A\Add{;} +\end{alignat*} +and consequently,\Note{3} +\begin{multline*} +\cos LL''·\cos L'L''' - \cos LL'''·\cos L'L'' \\ +\begin{aligned} +&= \cos A (\cos t \cos t'' \sin t' \sin t''' + + \cos t' \cos t''' \sin t \sin t'' \\ +&\qquad - \cos t \cos t''' \sin t' \sin t'' + - \cos t' \cos t'' \sin t \sin t''') \\ +&= \cos A (\cos t \sin t' - \sin t \cos t') + (\cos t'' \sin t''' - \sin t'' \cos t''')\NoteMark \\ +&= \cos A·\sin (t' - t)·\sin (t''' - t'') \\ +&= \cos A·\sin LL'·\sin L''L'''\Add{.} +\end{aligned} +\end{multline*} +\PageSep{5} + +But as there are for each great circle two branches going out from the point~$A$, +these two branches form at this point two angles whose sum is~$180°$. But our analysis +shows that those branches are to be taken whose directions are in the sense from the +point $L$~to~$L'$, and from the point $L''$~to~$L'''$; and since great circles intersect in two +points, it is clear that either of the two points can be chosen arbitrarily. Also, instead +of the angle~$A$, we can take the arc between the poles of the great circles of which the +arcs $LL'$,~$L''L'''$ are parts. But it is evident that those poles are to be chosen which +are similarly placed with respect to these arcs; that is to say, when we go from $L$~to~$L'$ +and from $L''$~to~$L'''$, both of the two poles are to be on the right, or both on the left. + +\Par{VII.} Let $L$,~$L'$,~$L''$ be the three points on the sphere and set, for brevity, +\begin{alignat*}{6} +&\cos (1)L &&= x,\quad&& \cos (2)L &&= y,\quad&& \cos (3)L &&= z\Add{,} \\ +&\cos (1)L' &&= x', && \cos (2)L' &&= y', && \cos (3)L' &&= z'\Add{,} \\ +&\cos (1)L'' &&= x'', && \cos (2)L'' &&= y'', && \cos (3)L'' &&= z''\Add{;} \\ +\end{alignat*} +and also +\[ +x y' z'' + x' y'' z + x'' y z' - x y'' z' - x' y z'' - x'' y' z = \Delta\Add{.} +\] +Let $\lambda$~denote the pole of the great circle of which $LL'$~is a part, this pole being the one +that is placed in the same position with respect to this arc as the point~$(1)$ is with +respect to the arc~$(2)(3)$. Then we shall have, by the preceding theorem, +\[ +y z' - y' z = \cos (1)\lambda·\sin (2)(3)·\sin LL', +\] +or, because $(2)(3) = 90°$, +\begin{align*} +y z' - y' z &= \cos (1)\lambda·\sin LL', \\ +\intertext{and similarly,} +z x' - z' x &= \cos (2)\lambda·\sin LL'\Add{,} \\ +x y' - x' y &= \cos (3)\lambda·\sin LL'\Add{.} +\end{align*} +Multiplying these equations by $x''$,~$y''$,~$z''$ respectively, and adding, we obtain, by means +of the second of the theorems deduced in~V, +\[ +\Delta = \cos \lambda L''·\sin LL'\Add{.} +\] +Now there are three cases to be distinguished. \emph{First}, when $L''$~lies on the great circle +of which the arc~$LL'$ is a part, we shall have $\lambda L'' = 90°$, and consequently, $\Delta = 0$. +If $L''$~does not lie on that great circle, the \emph{second} case will be when $L''$~is on the same +side as~$\lambda$; the \emph{third} case when they are on opposite sides. In the last two cases the +points $L$,~$L'$,~$L''$ will form a spherical triangle, and in the second case these points will lie +in the same order as the points $(1)$,~$(2)$,~$(3)$, and in the opposite order in the third case. +\PageSep{6} +Denoting the angles of this triangle simply by $L$,~$L'$,~$L''$ and the perpendicular drawn on +the sphere from the point~$L''$ to the side~$LL'$ by~$p$, we shall have +\[ +\sin p = \sin L·\sin LL'' = \sin L'·\sin L' L'', +\] +and +\[ +\lambda L'' = 90° \mp p, +\] +the upper sign being taken for the second case, the lower for the third. From this +it follows that +\begin{align*} +±\Delta &= \sin L·\sin LL'·\sin LL'' + = \sin L'·\sin LL'·\sin L'L'' \\ + &= \sin L''·\sin LL''·\sin L'L''\Add{.} +\end{align*} +Moreover, it is evident that the first case can be regarded as contained in the second or +third, and it is easily seen that the expression~$±\Delta$ represents six times the volume of +the pyramid formed by the points $L$,~$L'$,~$L''$ and the centre of the sphere. Whence, +finally, it is clear that the expression~$±\frac{1}{6}\Delta$ expresses generally the volume of any +pyramid contained between the origin of coordinates and the three points whose coordinates +are $\Typo{z}{x}$,~$y$,~$z$; $x'$,~$y'$,~$z'$; $x''$,~$y''$,~$z''$.\Note{5} + + +\Article{3.} + +A curved surface is said to possess continuous curvature at one of its points~$A$, if the +directions of all the straight lines drawn from $A$ to points of the surface at an infinitely +small distance from~$A$ are deflected infinitely little from one and the same plane passing +through~$A$. This plane is said to \emph{touch} the surface at the point~$A$. If this condition is +not satisfied for any point, the continuity of the curvature is here interrupted, as happens, +for example, at the vertex of a cone. The following investigations will be restricted to +such surfaces, or to such parts of surfaces, as have the continuity of their curvature +nowhere interrupted. We shall only observe now that the methods used to determine +the position of the tangent plane lose their meaning at singular points, in which the +continuity of the curvature is interrupted, and must lead to indeterminate solutions. + + +\Article{4.} + +The orientation of the tangent plane is most conveniently studied by means of the +direction of the straight line normal to the plane at the point~$A$, which is also called the +normal to the curved surface at the point~$A$. We shall represent the direction of this +normal by the point~$L$ on the auxiliary sphere, and we shall set +\[ +\cos (1)L = X,\quad \cos (2)L = Y,\quad \cos (3)L = Z; +\] +and denote the coordinates of the point~$A$ by $x$,~$y$,~$z$. Also let $x + dx$, $y + dy$, $z + dz$ +be the coordinates of another point~$A'$ on the curved surface; $ds$~its distance from~$A$, +\PageSep{7} +which is infinitely small; and finally, let $\lambda$ be the point on the sphere representing the +direction of the element~$AA'$. Then we shall have +\[ +dx = ds·\cos (1)\lambda,\quad +dy = ds·\cos (2)\lambda,\quad +dz = ds·\cos (3)\lambda +\] +and, since $\lambda L$~must be equal to~$90°$, +\[ +X\cos (1)\lambda + Y\cos (2)\lambda + Z\cos (3)\lambda = 0\Add{.} +\] +By combining these equations we obtain +\[ +X\, dx + Y\, dy + Z\, dz = 0. +\] + +There are two general methods for defining the nature of a curved surface. The +\emph{first} uses the equation between the coordinates $x$,~$y$,~$z$, which we may suppose reduced to +the form $W = 0$, where $W$~will be a function of the indeterminates $x$,~$y$,~$z$. Let the complete +differential of the function~$W$ be +\[ +dW = P\, dx + Q\, dy + R\, dz +\] +and on the curved surface we shall have +\[ +P\, dx + Q\, dy + R\, dz = 0\Add{,} +\] +and consequently, +\[ +P \cos (1)\lambda + Q \cos (2)\lambda + R \cos (3)\lambda = 0\Add{.} +\] +Since this equation, as well as the one we have established above, must be true for the +directions of all elements~$ds$ on the curved surface, we easily see that $X$,~$Y$,~$Z$ must be +proportional to $P$,~$Q$,~$R$ respectively, and consequently, since\Note{6} +\[ +X^{2} + Y^{2} + Z^{2} = 1,\NoteMark +\] +we shall have either +\begin{align*} +X &= \frac{P}{\Sqrt{P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}}}, & +Y &= \frac{Q}{\Sqrt{P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}}}, & +Z &= \frac{R}{\Sqrt{P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}}} \\ +\intertext{or} +X &= \frac{-P}{\Sqrt{P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}}}, & +Y &= \frac{-Q}{\Sqrt{P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}}}, & +Z &= \frac{-R}{\Sqrt{P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}}}\Add{.} +\end{align*} + +The \emph{second}\Note{7} method expresses the coordinates in the form of functions of two variables, +$p$,~$q$. Suppose that differentiation of these functions gives +\begin{alignat*}{2} +dx &= a\, dp &&+ a'\, dq\Add{,} \\ +dy &= b\, dp &&+ b'\, dq\Add{,} \\ +dz &= c\, dp &&+ c'\, dq\Add{.} +\end{alignat*} +\PageSep{8} +Substituting these values in the formula given above, we obtain +\[ +(aX + bY + cZ)\, dp + (a'X + b'Y + c'Z)\, dq = 0\Add{.} +\] +Since this equation must hold independently of the values of the differentials $dp$,~$dq$, +we evidently shall have +\[ +aX + bY + cZ = 0,\quad a'X + b'Y + c'Z = 0\Add{.} +\] +From this we see that $X$,~$Y$,~$Z$ will be proportioned to the quantities +\[ +bc' - cb',\quad ca' - ac',\quad ab' - ba'\Add{.} +\] +Hence, on setting, for brevity, +\[ +\Sqrt{(bc' - cb')^{2} + (ca' - ac')^{2} + (ab' - ba')^{2}} = \Delta\Add{,} +\] +we shall have either +\begin{align*} +X &= \frac{bc' - cb'}{\Delta},\quad& +Y &= \frac{ca' - ac'}{\Delta},\quad& +Z &= \frac{ab' - ba'}{\Delta} +\intertext{or} +X &= \frac{cb' - bc'}{\Delta},\quad& +Y &= \frac{ac' - ca'}{\Delta},\quad& +Z &= \frac{ba' - ab'}{\Delta}\Add{.} +\end{align*} + +With these two general methods is associated a \emph{third}, in which one of the coordinates, +$z$,~say, is expressed in the form of a function of the other two, $x$,~$y$. This method is +evidently only a particular case either of the first method, or of the second. If we set +\[ +dz = t\, dx + u\, dy +\] +we shall have either +\begin{align*} +X &= \frac{-t}{\Sqrt{1 + t^{2} + u^{2}}}, & +Y &= \frac{-u}{\Sqrt{1 + t^{2} + u^{2}}}, & +Z &= \frac{ 1}{\Sqrt{1 + t^{2} + u^{2}}} \\ +\intertext{or} +X &= \frac{ t}{\Sqrt{1 + t^{2} + u^{2}}}, & +Y &= \frac{ u}{\Sqrt{1 + t^{2} + u^{2}}}, & +Z &= \frac{-1}{\Sqrt{1 + t^{2} + u^{2}}}\Add{.} +\end{align*} + + +\Article{5.} + +The two solutions found in the preceding article evidently refer to opposite points of +the sphere, or to opposite directions, as one would expect, since the normal may be drawn +toward either of the two sides of the curved surface. If we wish to distinguish between +the two regions bordering upon the surface, and call one the exterior region and the other +the interior region, we can then assign to each of the two normals its appropriate solution +by aid of the theorem derived in \Art{2}~(VII), and at the same time establish a criterion +for distinguishing the one region from the other. +\PageSep{9} + +In the first method, such a criterion is to be drawn from the sign of the quantity~$W$. +Indeed, generally speaking, the curved surface divides those regions of space in which $W$ +keeps a positive value from those in which the value of~$W$ becomes negative. In fact, it +is easily seen from this theorem that, if $W$ takes a positive value toward the exterior +region, and if the normal is supposed to be drawn outwardly, the first solution is to be +taken. Moreover, it will be easy to decide in any case whether the same rule for the +sign of~$W$ is to hold throughout the entire surface, or whether for different parts there +will be different rules. As long as the coefficients $P$,~$Q$,~$R$ have finite values and do not +all vanish at the same time, the law of continuity will prevent any change. + +If we follow the second method, we can imagine two systems of curved lines on the +curved surface, one system for which $p$~is variable, $q$~constant; the other for which $q$~is +variable, $p$~constant. The respective positions of these lines with reference to the exterior +region will decide which of the two solutions must be taken. In fact, whenever +the three lines, namely, the branch of the line of the former system going out from the +point~$A$ as $p$~increases, the branch of the line of the latter system going out from the point +$A$ as $q$~increases, and the normal drawn toward the exterior region, are \emph{similarly} placed as +the $x$,~$y$,~$z$ axes respectively from the origin of abscissas (\eg, if, both for the former +three lines and for the latter three, we can conceive the first directed to the left, the +second to the right, and the third upward), the first solution is to be taken. But whenever +the relative position of the three lines is opposite to the relative position of the +$x$,~$y$,~$z$ axes, the second solution will hold. + +In the third method, it is to be seen whether, when $z$~receives a positive increment, $x$~and~$y$ +remaining constant, the point crosses toward the exterior or the interior region. +In the former case, for the normal drawn outward, the first solution holds; in the latter +case, the second. + + +\Article{6.} + +Just as each definite point on the curved surface is made to correspond to a definite +point on the sphere, by the direction of the normal to the curved surface which is transferred +to the surface of the sphere, so also any line whatever, or any figure whatever, on +the latter will be represented by a corresponding line or figure on the former. In the +comparison of two figures corresponding to one another in this way, one of which will be +as the map of the other, two important points are to be considered, one when quantity +alone is considered, the other when, disregarding quantitative relations, position alone +is considered. + +The first of these important points will be the basis of some ideas which it seems +judicious to introduce into the theory of curved surfaces. Thus, to each part of a curved +\PageSep{10} +surface inclosed within definite limits we assign a \emph{total} or \emph{integral curvature}, which is +represented by the area of the figure on the sphere corresponding to it. From this +integral curvature must be distinguished the somewhat more specific curvature which we +shall call the\Note{8} \emph{measure of curvature}. The latter refers to a \emph{point} of the surface, and shall +denote the quotient obtained when the integral curvature of the surface element about +a point is divided by the area of the element itself; and hence it denotes the ratio of the +infinitely small areas which correspond to one another on the curved surface and on the +sphere. The use of these innovations will be abundantly justified, as we hope, by what +we shall explain below. As for the terminology, we have thought it especially desirable +that all ambiguity be avoided. For this reason we have not thought it advantageous to +follow strictly the analogy of the terminology commonly adopted (though not approved by +all) in the theory of plane curves, according to which the measure of curvature should be +called simply curvature, but the total curvature, the amplitude. But why not be free in +the choice of words, provided they are not meaningless and not liable to a misleading +interpretation? + +The position of a figure on the sphere can be either similar to the position of the +corresponding figure on the curved surface, or opposite (inverse). The former is the case +when two lines going out on the curved surface from the same point in different, but not +opposite directions, are represented on the sphere by lines similarly placed, that is, when +the map of the line to the right is also to the right; the latter is the case when the contrary +holds. We shall distinguish these two cases by the positive or negative \emph{sign} of the +measure of curvature. But evidently this distinction can hold only when on each surface +we choose a definite face on which we suppose the figure to lie. On the auxiliary sphere +we shall use always the exterior face, that is, that turned away from the centre; on the +curved surface also there may be taken for the exterior face the one already considered, +or rather that face from which the normal is supposed to be drawn. For, evidently, there +is no change in regard to the similitude of the figures, if on the curved surface both the +figure and the normal be transferred to the opposite side, so long as the image itself +is represented on the same side of the sphere. + +The positive or negative sign, which we assign to the \emph{measure} of curvature according +to the position of the infinitely small figure, we extend also to the integral curvature +of a finite figure on the curved surface. However, if we wish to discuss the general case, +some explanations will be necessary, which we can only touch here briefly. So long +as the figure on the curved surface is such that to \emph{distinct} points on itself there correspond +distinct points on the sphere, the definition needs no further explanation. But +whenever this condition is not satisfied, it will be necessary to take into account twice +or several times certain parts of the figure on the sphere. Whence for a similar, or +\PageSep{11} +inverse position, may arise an accumulation of areas, or the areas may partially or +wholly destroy each other. In such a case, the simplest way is to suppose the curved +surface divided into parts, such that each part, considered separately, satisfies the above +condition; to assign to each of the parts its integral curvature, determining this magnitude +by the area of the corresponding figure on the sphere, and the sign by the position +of this figure; and, finally, to assign to the total figure the integral curvature +arising from the addition of the integral curvatures which correspond to the single parts. +So, generally, the integral curvature of a figure is equal to $\int k\, d\sigma$, $d\sigma$~denoting the +element of area of the figure, and $k$~the measure of curvature at any point. The principal +points concerning the geometric representation of this integral reduce to the following. +To the perimeter of the figure on the curved surface (under the restriction +of \Art{3}) will correspond always a closed line on the sphere. If the latter nowhere +intersect itself, it will divide the whole surface of the sphere into two parts, one of +which will correspond to the figure on the curved surface; and its area (taken as +positive or negative according as, with respect to its perimeter, its position is similar, +or inverse, to the position of the figure on the curved surface) will represent the integral +curvature of the figure on the curved surface. But whenever this line intersects +itself once or several times, it will give a complicated figure, to which, however, it is +possible to assign a definite area as legitimately as in the case of a figure without +nodes; and this area, properly interpreted, will give always an exact value for the +integral curvature. However, we must reserve for another occasion\Note{9} the more extended +exposition of the theory of these figures viewed from this very general standpoint. + + +\Article{7.} + +We shall now find a formula which will express the measure of curvature for +any point of a curved surface. Let $d\sigma$~denote the area of an element of this surface; +then $Z\, d\sigma$~will be the area of the projection of this element on the plane of the coordinates +$x$,~$y$; and consequently, if $d\Sigma$~is the area of the corresponding element on the +sphere, $Z\, d\Sigma$~will be the area of its projection on the same plane. The positive or +negative sign of~$Z$ will, in fact, indicate that the position of the projection is similar or +inverse to that of the projected element. Evidently these projections have the same +ratio as to quantity and the same relation as to position as the elements themselves. +Let us consider now a triangular element on the curved surface, and let us suppose +that the coordinates of the three points which form its projection are +\begin{alignat*}{3} +&x, && y\Add{,} \\ +&x + dx,\quad && y + dy\Add{,} \\ +&x + \delta x,\quad && y + \delta y\Add{.} +\end{alignat*} +\PageSep{12} +The double area of this triangle will be expressed by the formula +\[ +dx·\delta y - dy·\delta x\Add{,} +\] +and this will be in a positive or negative form according as the position of the side +from the first point to the third, with respect to the side from the first point to the +second, is similar or opposite to the position of the $y$-axis of coordinates with respect +to the $x$-axis of coordinates. + +In like manner, if the coordinates of the three points which form the projection of +the corresponding element on the sphere, from the centre of the sphere as origin, are +\begin{alignat*}{3} +&X, && Y\Add{,} \\ +&X + dX,\quad && Y + dY\Add{,} \\ +&X + \delta X,\quad && Y + \delta Y\Add{,} +\end{alignat*} +the double area of this projection will be expressed by +\[ +dX·\delta Y - dY·\delta X\Add{,} +\] +and the sign of this expression is determined in the same manner as above. Wherefore +the measure of curvature at this point of the curved surface will be +\[ +k = \frac{dX·\delta Y - dY·\delta X}{dx·\delta y - dy·\delta x}\Add{.} +\] +If now we suppose the nature of the curved surface to be defined according to the third +method considered in \Art{4}, $X$~and~$Y$ will be in the form of functions of the quantities +$x$,~$y$. We shall have, therefore,\Note{10} +\begin{alignat*}{2} +dX &= \frac{\dd X}{\dd x}\, dx &&+ \frac{\dd X}{\dd y}\, dy\Add{,} \\ +\delta X &= \frac{\dd X}{\dd x}\, \delta x + &&+ \frac{\dd X}{\dd y}\, \delta y\Add{,} \\ +dY &= \frac{\dd Y}{\dd x}\, dx &&+ \frac{\dd Y}{\dd y}\, dy\Add{,} \\ +\delta Y &= \frac{\dd Y}{\dd x}\, \delta x + &&+ \frac{\dd Y}{\dd y}\, \delta y\Add{.} +\end{alignat*} +When these values have been substituted, the above expression becomes +\[ +k = \frac{\dd X}{\dd x}·\frac{\dd Y}{\dd y} + - \frac{\dd X}{\dd y}·\frac{\dd Y}{\dd x}\Add{.} +\] +\PageSep{13} +Setting, as above, +\[ +\frac{\dd z}{\dd x} = t,\quad \frac{\dd z}{\dd y} = u +\] +and also +\[ +\frac{\dd^{2} z}{\dd x^{2}} = T,\quad +\frac{\dd^{2} z}{\dd x·\dd y} = U,\quad +\frac{\dd^{2} z}{\dd y^{2}} = V\Add{,} +\] +or +\[ +dt = T\, dx + U\, dy,\quad +du = U\, dx + V\, dy\Add{,} +\] +we have from the formulæ given above +\[ +X = -tZ,\quad Y = -uZ,\quad (1 - t^{2} - u^{2})Z^{2} = 1\Add{;} +\] +and hence +\begin{gather*} +\begin{alignedat}{2} +dX &= -Z\, dt &&- t\, dZ\Add{,} \\ +dY &= -Z\, du &&- u\, dZ\Add{,} +\end{alignedat} \\ +(1 + t^{2} + u^{2})\, dZ + Z(t\, dt + u\, du) = 0\Add{;} +\end{gather*} +or\Note{11} +\begin{align*} +dZ &= -Z^{3}(t\, dt + u\, du)\Add{,} \\ +dX &= -Z^{3}(1 + u^{2})\, dt + Z^{3} tu\, du\Add{,} \\ +dY &= +Z^{3}tu\, dt - Z^{3}(1 + t^{2})\, du\Add{;}\NoteMark +\end{align*} +and so +\begin{align*} +\frac{\dd X}{\dd x} &= Z^{3}\bigl(-(1 + u^{2})T + tuU\bigr)\Add{,} \\ +\frac{\dd X}{\dd y} &= Z^{3}\bigl(-(1 + u^{2})U + tuV\bigr)\Add{,} \\ +\frac{\dd Y}{\dd x} &= Z^{3}\bigl( tuT - (1 + t^{2})U\bigr)\Add{,} \\ +\frac{\dd Y}{\dd y} &= Z^{3}\bigl( tuU - (1 + t^{2})V\bigr)\Add{.} +\end{align*} +Substituting these values in the above expression, it becomes +\begin{align*} +k &= Z^{6}(TV - U^{2}) (1 + t^{2} + u^{2}) = Z^{4} (TV - U^{2}) \\ + &= \frac{TV - U^{2}}{(1 + t^{2} + u^{2})^{2}}\Add{.} +\end{align*} + + +\Article{8.} + +By a suitable choice of origin and axes of coordinates, we can easily make the +values of the quantities $t$,~$u$,~$U$ vanish for a definite point~$A$. Indeed, the first two +\PageSep{14} +conditions will be fulfilled at once if the tangent plane at this point be taken for the +$xy$-plane. If, further, the origin is placed at the point $A$~itself, the expression for +the coordinate~$z$ evidently takes the form +\[ +z = \tfrac{1}{2}T°x^{2} + U°xy + \tfrac{1}{2}V°y^{2} + \Omega\Add{,} +\] +where $\Omega$~will be of higher degree than the second. Turning now the axes of $x$~and~$y$ +through an angle~$M$ such that +\[ +\tan 2M = \frac{2U°}{T° - V°}\Add{,} +\] +it is easily seen that there must result an equation of the form +\[ +z = \tfrac{1}{2}Tx^{2} + \tfrac{1}{2}Vy^{2} + \Omega\Add{.} +\] +In this way the third condition is also satisfied. When this has been done, it is evident +that + +\Par{I.} If the curved surface be cut by a plane passing through the normal itself and +through the $x$-axis, a plane curve will be obtained, the radius of curvature of which +at the point~$A$ will be equal to~$\dfrac{1}{T}$, the positive or negative sign indicating that the +curve is concave or convex toward that region toward which the coordinates~$z$ are +positive. + +\Par{II.} In like manner $\dfrac{1}{V}$~will be the radius of curvature at the point~$A$ of the plane +curve which is the intersection of the surface and the plane through the $y$-axis and +the $z$-axis. + +\Par{III.} Setting $z = r \cos\phi$, $y = r \sin \phi$, the equation becomes +\[ +z = \tfrac{1}{2}(T\cos^{2}\phi + V\sin^{2}\phi) r^{2} + \Omega\Add{,} +\] +from which we see that if the section is made by a plane through the normal at~$A$ +and making an angle~$\phi$ with the $x$-axis, we shall have a plane curve whose radius of +curvature at the point~$A$ will be +\[ +\frac{1}{T\cos^{2}\phi + V\sin^{2}\phi}\Add{.} +\] + +\Par{IV.} Therefore, whenever we have $T = V$, the radii of curvature in \emph{all} the normal +planes will be equal. But if $T$~and~$V$ are not equal, it is evident that, since for any +value whatever of the angle~$\phi$, $T\cos^{2}\phi + V\sin^{2}\phi$ falls between $T$~and~$V$, the radii of +curvature in the principal sections considered in I.~and~II. refer to the extreme curvatures; +that is to say, the one to the maximum curvature, the other to the minimum, +\PageSep{15} +if $T$~and~$V$ have the same sign. On the other hand, one has the greatest convex +curvature, the other the greatest concave curvature, if $T$~and~$V$ have opposite signs. +These conclusions contain almost all that the illustrious Euler\Note{12} was the first to prove +on the curvature of curved surfaces. + +\Par{V.} The measure of curvature at the point~$A$ on the curved surface takes the +very simple form +\[ +k = TV, +\] +whence we have the + +\begin{Theorem} +The measure of curvature at any point whatever of the surface is equal to a +fraction whose numerator is unity, and whose denominator is the product of the two extreme +radii of curvature of the sections by normal planes.\ +\end{Theorem} + +At the same time it is clear that the measure of curvature is positive for concavo-concave +or convexo-convex surfaces (which distinction is not essential), but negative +for concavo-convex surfaces. If the surface consists of parts of each kind, then +on the lines separating the two kinds the measure of curvature ought to vanish. Later +we shall make a detailed study of the nature of curved surfaces for which the measure +of curvature everywhere vanishes. + + +\Article{9.} + +The general formula for the measure of curvature given at the end of \Art{7} is +the most simple of all, since it involves only five elements. We shall arrive at a +more complicated formula, indeed, one involving nine elements, if we wish to use the +first method of representing a curved surface.

The analysis +developed in the preceding article thus shows us that for finding the measure of curvature +there is no need of finite formulæ, which express the coordinates $x$,~$y$,~$z$ as +functions of the indeterminates $p$,~$q$; but that the general expression for the magnitude +of any linear element is sufficient. Let us proceed to some applications of this very +important theorem. + +Suppose that our surface can be developed upon another surface, curved or plane, +so that to each point of the former surface, determined by the coordinates $x$,~$y$,~$z$, will +correspond a definite point of the latter surface, whose coordinates are $x'$,~$y'$,~$z'$. Evidently +$x'$,~$y'$,~$z'$ can also be regarded as functions of the indeterminates $p$,~$q$, and therefore +for the element $\Sqrt{dx'^{2} + dy'^{2} + dz'^{2}}$ we shall have an expression of the form +\[ +\Sqrt{E'\, dp^{2} + 2F'\, dp·dq + G'\, dq^{2}}\Add{,} +\] +where $E'$,~$F'$,~$G'$ also denote functions of $p$,~$q$. But from the very notion of the \emph{development} +of one surface upon another it is clear that the elements corresponding to one +another on the two surfaces are necessarily equal. Therefore we shall have identically +\[ +E = E',\quad F = F',\quad G = G'. +\] +Thus the formula of the preceding article leads of itself to the remarkable + +\begin{Theorem} +If a curved surface is developed upon any other surface whatever, the +measure of curvature in each point remains unchanged. +\end{Theorem} +\PageSep{21} + +Also it is evident that +\begin{Theorem}[] +any finite part whatever of the curved surface will retain the +same integral curvature after development upon another surface. +\end{Theorem} + +Surfaces developable upon a plane constitute the particular case to which geometers +have heretofore restricted their attention. Our theory shows at once that the +measure of curvature at every point of such surfaces is equal to zero. Consequently, +if the nature of these surfaces is defined according to the third method, we shall have +at every point +\[ +\frac{\dd^{2} z}{\dd x^{2}}·\frac{\dd^{2} z}{\dd y^{2}} + - \left(\frac{\dd^{2}z}{\dd x·\dd y}\right)^{2} = 0\Add{,} +\] +a criterion which, though indeed known a short time ago, has not, at least to our +knowledge, commonly been demonstrated with as much rigor as is desirable. + + +\Article{13.} + +What we have explained in the preceding article is connected with a particular +method of studying surfaces, a very worthy method which may be thoroughly developed +by geometers. When a surface is regarded, not as the boundary of a solid, but +as a flexible, though not extensible solid, one dimension of which is supposed to +vanish, then the properties of the surface depend in part upon the form to which we +can suppose it reduced, and in part are absolute and remain invariable, whatever may +be the form into which the surface is bent. To these latter properties, the study of +which opens to geometry a new and fertile field, belong the measure of curvature and +the integral curvature, in the sense which we have given to these expressions. To +these belong also the theory of shortest lines, and a great part of what we reserve to +be treated later. From this point of view, a plane surface and a surface developable +on a plane, \eg,~cylindrical surfaces, conical surfaces,~etc., are to be regarded as essentially +identical; and the generic method of defining in a general manner the nature of +the surfaces thus considered is always based upon the formula +\[ +\Sqrt{E\, dp^{2} + 2F\, dp·dq + G\, dq^{2}}, +\] +which connects the linear element with the two indeterminates $p$,~$q$. But before following +this study further, we must introduce the principles of the theory of shortest +lines on a given curved surface. + + +\Article{14.} + +The nature of a curved line in space is generally given in such a way that the +coordinates $x$,~$y$,~$z$ corresponding to the different points of it are given in the form of +functions of a single variable, which we shall call~$w$. The length of such a line from +\PageSep{22} +an arbitrary initial point to the point whose coordinates are $x$,~$y$,~$z$, is expressed by +the integral +\[ +%[** TN: Round outer parentheses in the original] +\int dw·\SQRT{ + \left(\frac{dx}{dw}\right)^{2} + + \left(\frac{dy}{dw}\right)^{2} + + \left(\frac{dz}{dw}\right)^{2}}\Add{.} +\] +If we suppose that the position of the line undergoes an infinitely small variation, so +that the coordinates of the different points receive the variations $\delta x$,~$\delta y$,~$\delta z$, the variation +of the whole length becomes +\[ +\int \frac{dx·d\, \delta x + dy·d\, \delta y + dz·d\, \delta z} + {\Sqrt{dx^{2} + dy^{2} + dz^{2}}}\Add{,} +\] +which expression we can change into the form\Note{15} +\begin{multline*} +\frac{dx·\delta x + dy·\delta y + dz·\delta z} + {\Sqrt{dx^{2} + dy^{2} + dz^{2}}} \\ +-\int \Biggl( + \delta x·d\frac{dx}{\Sqrt{dx^{2} + dy^{2} + dz^{2}}} + + \delta y·d\frac{dy}{\Sqrt{dx^{2} + dy^{2} + dz^{2}}} + + \delta z·d\frac{dz}{\Sqrt{dx^{2} + dy^{2} + dz^{2}}} + \Biggr)\Add{.}\NoteMark +\end{multline*} +We know that, in case the line is to be the shortest between its end points, all that +stands under the integral sign must vanish. Since the line must lie on the given +surface, whose nature is defined by the equation +\[ +P\, dx + Q\, dy + R\, dz = 0, +\] +the variations $\delta x$,~$\delta y$,~$\delta z$ also must satisfy the equation +\[ +P\, \delta x + Q\, \delta y + R\, \delta z = 0, +\] +and from this it follows at once, according to well-known rules, that the differentials +\[ +d\frac{dx}{\Sqrt{dx^{2} + dy^{2} + dz^{2}}},\quad +d\frac{dy}{\Sqrt{dx^{2} + dy^{2} + dz^{2}}},\quad +d\frac{dz}{\Sqrt{dx^{2} + dy^{2} + dz^{2}}} +\] +must be proportional to the quantities $P$,~$Q$,~$R$ respectively. Let $dr$~be the element +of the curved line; $\lambda$~the point on the sphere representing the direction of this element; +$L$~the point on the sphere representing the direction of the normal to the curved +surface; finally, let $\xi$,~$\eta$,~$\zeta$ be the coordinates of the point~$\lambda$, and $X$,~$Y$,~$Z$ be those of +the point~$L$ with reference to the centre of the sphere. We shall then have +\[ +dx = \xi\, dr,\quad +dy = \eta\, dr,\quad +dz = \zeta\, dr\Add{,} +\] +from which we see that the above differentials become $d\xi$,~$d\eta$,~$d\zeta$. And since the +quantities $P$,~$Q$,~$R$ are proportional to $X$,~$Y$,~$Z$, the character of shortest lines is +expressed by the equations +\[ +\frac{d\xi}{X} = \frac{d\eta}{Y} = \frac{d\zeta}{Z}\Add{.} +\] +\PageSep{23} +Moreover, it is easily seen that +\[ +\Sqrt{d\xi^{2} + d\eta^{2} + d\zeta^{2}} +\] +is equal to the small arc on the sphere which measures the angle between the directions +of the tangents at the beginning and at the end of the element~$dr$, and is thus +equal to~$\dfrac{dr}{\rho}$, if $\rho$~denotes the radius of curvature of the shortest line at this point. +Thus we shall have +\[ +\rho\, d\xi = X\, dr,\quad +\rho\, d\eta = Y\, dr,\quad +\rho\, d\zeta = Z\, dr\Add{.} +\] + + +\Article{15.} + +Suppose that an infinite number of shortest lines go out from a given point~$A$ +on the curved surface, and suppose that we distinguish these lines from one another +by the angle that the first element of each of them makes with the first element of +one of them which we take for the first. Let $\phi$~be that angle, or, more generally, a +function of that angle, and $r$~the length of such a shortest line from the point~$A$ to +the point whose coordinates are $x$,~$y$,~$z$. Since to definite values of the variables $r$,~$\phi$ +there correspond definite points of the surface, the coordinates $x$,~$y$,~$z$ can be regarded +as functions of $r$,~$\phi$.

From this we see that +$S$~is independent of~$r$, and is, therefore, a function of $\phi$~alone. But for $r = 0$ we evidently +have $v = 0$, consequently $\dfrac{\dd v}{\dd\phi} = 0$, and $S = 0$ independently of~$\phi$. Thus, in general, +we have necessarily $S = 0$, and so $\cos\lambda\lambda' = 0$, \ie, $\lambda\lambda' = 90°$. From this follows the + +\begin{Theorem} +If on a curved surface an infinite number of shortest lines of equal length +be drawn from the same initial point, the lines joining their extremities will be normal to +each of the lines. +\end{Theorem} + +We have thought it worth while to deduce this theorem from the fundamental +property of shortest lines; but the truth of the theorem can be made apparent without +any calculation by means of the following reasoning.

Thus all of +the reasoning will hold here also, with this modification, that $S = 0$ for $r = 0$ is +now implied in the hypothesis itself. Moreover, this theorem is more general than +the preceding one, for we can regard it as including the first one if we take for the +given line the infinitely small circle described about the centre~$A$.

Any point +whatever on the surface can be regarded as the intersection of a line of the first +system with a line of the second; and then the element of the first line adjacent to +this point and corresponding to a variation~$dp$ will be equal to~$\sqrt{E}·dp$, and the +element of the second line corresponding to the variation~$dq$ will be equal to~$\sqrt{G}·dq$. +Finally, denoting by~$\omega$ the angle between these elements, it is easily seen that we +shall have +\[ +\cos \omega = \frac{F}{\sqrt{EG}}. +\] +\PageSep{26} +Furthermore, the area of the surface element in the form of a parallelogram between +the two lines of the first system, to which correspond $q$,~$q + dq$, and the two lines of +the second system, to which correspond $p$,~$p + dp$, will be +\[ +\Sqrt{EG - F^{2}}\, dp·dq. +\] + +Any line whatever on the curved surface belonging to neither of the two systems +is determined when $p$~and~$q$ are supposed to be functions of a new variable, or +one of them is supposed to be a function of the other.

Here for a constant value of~$q$ the angle~$\theta$ becomes equal to +zero, and therefore the equation for the variation of~$\theta$ just given shows that we must +have $\dfrac{\dd E}{\dd q} = 0$, or that the coefficient~$E$ must be independent of~$\Erratum{g}{q}$; \ie, $E$~must be +either a constant or a function of $p$~alone. It will be simplest to take for~$p$ +the length of each line of the first system, which length, when all the lines of the +first system meet in a point, is to be measured from this point, or, if there is no +common intersection, from any line whatever of the second system. Having made +these conventions, it is evident that $p$~and~$q$ denote now the same quantities that +were expressed in \Arts{15}{16} by $r$~and~$\phi$, and that $E = 1$. Thus the two preceding +formulæ become: +\begin{align*} +4G^{2}k + &= \left(\frac{\dd G}{\dd p}\right)^{2} - 2G\, \frac{\dd^{2} G}{\dd p^{2}}\Add{,} \\ +\sqrt{G}·d\theta + &= -\frac{1}{2}·\frac{\dd G}{\dd p}·dq\Add{;} +\end{align*} +or, setting $\sqrt{G} = m$, +\[ +k = -\frac{1}{m}·\frac{\dd^{2} m}{\dd p^{2}},\quad +d\theta = -\frac{\dd m}{\dd p}·dq\Add{.} +\] +Generally speaking, $m$~will be a function of $p$,~$q$, and $m\, dq$~the expression for the element +of any line whatever of the second system. But in the particular case where +all the lines~$p$ go out from the same point, evidently we must have $m = 0$ for $p = 0$. +Furthermore, in the case under discussion we will take for~$q$ the angle itself which +the first element of any line whatever of the first system makes with the element of +any one of the lines chosen arbitrarily. Then, since for an infinitely small value of~$p$ +the element of a line of the second system (which can be regarded as a circle +described with radius~$p$) is equal to~$p\, dq$, we shall have for an infinitely small value +of~$p$, $m = p$, and consequently, for $p = 0$, $m = 0$ at the same time, and $\dfrac{\dd m}{\dd p} = 1$. +\PageSep{29} + + +\Article{20.} + +We pause to investigate the case in which we suppose that $p$~denotes in a general +manner the length of the shortest line drawn from a fixed point~$A$ to any other +point whatever of the surface, and $q$~the angle that the first element of this line +makes with the first element of another given shortest line going out from~$A$. Let +$B$ be a definite point in the latter line, for which $q = 0$, and $C$~another definite point +of the surface, at which we denote the value of~$q$ simply by~$A$. Let us suppose the +points $B$,~$C$ joined by a shortest line, the parts of which, measured from~$B$, we denote +in a general way, as in \Art{18}, by~$s$; and, as in the same article, let us denote by~$\theta$ +the angle which any element~$ds$ makes with the element~$dp$; finally, let us denote +by $\theta°$,~$\theta'$ the values of the angle~$\theta$ at the points $B$,~$C$. We have thus on the curved +surface a triangle formed by shortest lines. The angles of this triangle at $B$~and~$C$ +we shall denote simply by the same letters, and $B$~will be equal to~$180° - \theta$, $C$~to $\theta'$~itself. +But, since it is easily seen from our analysis that all the angles are supposed +to be expressed, not in degrees, but by numbers, in such a way that the angle $57°\, 17'\, 45''$, +to which corresponds an arc equal to the radius, is taken for the unit, we must set +\[ +\theta° = \pi - B,\quad \theta' = C\Add{,} +\] +where $2\pi$~denotes the circumference of the sphere. Let us now examine the integral +curvature of this triangle, which is equal to +\[ +\int k\, d\sigma, +\] +$d\sigma$~denoting a surface element of the triangle. Wherefore, since this element is expressed +by~$m\, dp·dq$, we must extend the integral +\[ +\iint \Typo{}{k}m\, dp·dq +\] +over the whole surface of the triangle. Let us begin by integration with respect to~$p$, +which, because +\[ +k = -\frac{1}{m}·\frac{\dd^{2} m}{\dd p^{2}}, +\] +gives +\[ +dq·\left(\text{const.} - \frac{\dd m}{\dd p}\right), +\] +for the integral curvature of the area lying between the lines of the first system, to +which correspond the values $q$,~$q + dq$ of the second indeterminate. Since this integral +\PageSep{30} +curvature must vanish for $p = 0$, the constant introduced by integration must be +equal to the value of~$\dfrac{\dd m}{\dd q}$ for $p = 0$, \ie,~equal to unity. Thus we have +\[ +dq\left(1 - \frac{\dd m}{\dd p}\right), +\] +where for $\dfrac{\dd m}{\dd p}$ must be taken the value corresponding to the end of this area on the +line~$CB$. But on this line we have, by the preceding article, +\[ +\frac{\dd m}{\dd q}·dq = -d\theta, +\] +whence our expression is changed into $dq + d\theta$. Now by a second integration, taken +from $q = 0$ to $q = A$, we obtain for the integral curvature +\[ +A + \theta'- \theta°, +\] +or +\[ +A + B + C - \pi. +\] + +The integral curvature is equal to the area of that part of the sphere which corresponds +to the triangle, taken with the positive or negative sign according as the +curved surface on which the triangle lies is concavo-concave or concavo-convex. For +unit area will be taken the square whose side is equal to unity (the radius of the +sphere), and then the whole surface of the sphere becomes equal to~$4\pi$. Thus the +part of the surface of the sphere corresponding to the triangle is to the whole surface +of the sphere as $±(A + B + C - \pi)$ is to~$4\pi$. This theorem, which, if we mistake +not, ought to be counted among the most elegant in the theory of curved surfaces, +may also be stated as follows: + +\begin{Theorem}[] +The excess over~$180°$ of the sum of the angles of a triangle formed by shortest lines +on a concavo-concave curved surface, or the deficit from~$180°$ of the sum of the angles of +a triangle formed hy shortest lines on a concavo-convex curved surface, is measured by the +area of the part of the sphere which corresponds, through the directions of the normals, to +that triangle, if the whole surface of the sphere is set equal to $720$~degrees. +\end{Theorem} + +More generally, in any polygon whatever of $n$~sides, each formed by a shortest +line, the excess of the sum of the angles over $(2n - 4)$~right angles, or the deficit from +$(2n - 4)$~right angles (according to the nature of the curved surface), is equal to the +area of the corresponding polygon on the sphere, if the whole surface of the sphere is +set equal to $720$~degrees. This follows at once from the preceding theorem by dividing +the polygon into triangles. +\PageSep{31} + + +\Article{21.} + +Let us again give to the symbols $p$,~$q$, $E$,~$F$,~$G$, $\omega$ the general meanings which +were given to them above, and let us further suppose that the nature of the curved +surface is defined in a similar way by two other variables, $p'$,~$q'$, in which case the +general linear element is expressed by +\[ +\Sqrt{E'\, dp'^{2} + 2F'\, dp'·dq' + G'\, dq'^{2}}\Add{.} +\] +Thus to any point whatever lying on the surface and defined by definite values of +the variables $p$,~$q$ will correspond definite values of the variables $p'$,~$q'$, which will +therefore be functions of $p$,~$q$.

If through the definite point to +which correspond the values $p$,~$q$, $p'$,~$q'$ of the variables we suppose the four lines +belonging to these different systems to be drawn, the elements of these lines, corresponding +to the positive increments $dp$,~$dq$, $dp'$,~$dq'$, will be +\[ +\sqrt{E}·dp,\quad +\sqrt{G}·dq,\quad +\sqrt{E'}·dp',\quad +\sqrt{G'}·dq'. +\] +The angles which the directions of these elements make with an arbitrary fixed direction +we shall denote by $M$,~$N$, $M'$,~$N'$, measuring them in the sense in which the +second is placed with respect to the first, so that $\sin(N - M)$ is positive. Let us +suppose (which is permissible) that the fourth is placed in the same sense with respect +to the third, so that $\sin(N' - M')$ also is positive. Having made these conventions, +if we consider another point at an infinitely small distance from the first point, and +to which correspond the values $p + dp$, $q + dq$, $p' + dp'$, $q' + dq'$ of the variables, we +see without much difficulty that we shall have generally, \ie, independently of the +values of the increments $dp$,~$dq$, $dp'$,~$dq'$, +\[ +\sqrt{E}·dp·\sin M + \sqrt{G}·dq·\sin N + = \sqrt{E'}·dp'·\sin M' + \sqrt{G'}·dq'·\sin N'\Add{,} +\] +since each of these expressions is merely the distance of the new point from the line +from which the angles of the directions begin. But we have, by the notation introduced +above, +\[ +N - M = \omega. +\] +In like manner we set +\[ +N' - M' = \omega', +\] +\PageSep{32} +and also +\[ +N - M' = \psi. +\] +Then the equation just found can be thrown into the following form: +\begin{multline*} +\sqrt{E}·dp · \sin(M' - \omega + \psi) + \sqrt{G}·dq·\sin(M' + \psi) \\ += \sqrt{E'}·dp'·\sin M' + \sqrt{G'}·dq'·\sin(M' + \omega')\Add{,} +\end{multline*} +or +\begin{multline*} +\sqrt{E}·dp·\sin(N' - \omega - \omega' + \psi) + - \sqrt{G}·dq·\sin(N' - \omega' + \psi) \\ + = \sqrt{E'}·dp'·\sin(N' - \omega') + \sqrt{G'}·dq'·\sin N'\Add{.} +\end{multline*} +And since the equation evidently must be independent of the initial direction, this +direction can be chosen arbitrarily.

Indeed, integration of equation~(5) will give~$r$; $r$~being +found, integration of equation~(6) will give~$\phi$; and one or other of equations (1),~(2) +will give $\psi$~itself. Finally, $m$~is obtained from one or other of equations (3),~(4). + +The general integration of equations (5),~(6) must necessarily introduce two arbitrary +functions. We shall easily understand what their meaning is, if we remember +that these equations are not limited to the case we are here considering, but are +equally valid if $r$~and~$\phi$ are taken in the more general sense of \Art{16}, so that $r$~is +the length of the shortest line drawn normal to a fixed but arbitrary line, and $\phi$~is +an arbitrary function of the length of that part of the fixed line which is intercepted +between any shortest line and an arbitrary fixed point. The general solution must +embrace all this in a general way, and the arbitrary functions must go over into +definite functions only when the arbitrary line and the arbitrary functions of its +parts, which $\phi$~must represent, are themselves defined. In our case an infinitely +small circle may be taken, having its centre at the point from which the distances~$r$ +are measured, and $\phi$~will denote the parts themselves of this circle, divided by the +radius. Whence it is easily seen that the equations (5),~(6) are quite sufficient for +our case, provided that the functions which they leave undefined satisfy the condition +which $r$~and~$\phi$ satisfy for the initial point and for points at an infinitely small +distance from this point. + +Moreover, in regard to the integration itself of the equations (5),~(6), we know +that it can be reduced to the integration of ordinary differential equations, which, however, +often happen to be so complicated that there is little to be gained by the reduction. +On the contrary, the development in series, which are abundantly sufficient for +practical requirements, when only a finite portion of the surface is under consideration, +presents no difficulty; and the formulæ thus derived open a fruitful source for +\PageSep{35} +the solution of many important problems.

Pages 1761--1768. 1827. November~5. +} + +On the 8th~of October, Hofrath Gauss presented to the Royal Society a paper: +\begin{center} +\textit{Disquisitiones generales circa superficies curvas.} +\end{center} + +Although geometers have given much attention to general investigations of curved +surfaces and their results cover a significant portion of the domain of higher geometry, +this subject is still so far from being exhausted, that it can well be said that, up to +this time, but a small portion of an exceedingly fruitful field has been cultivated. +Through the solution of the problem, to find all representations of a given surface upon +another in which the smallest elements remain unchanged, the author sought some +years ago to give a new phase to this study. The purpose of the present discussion +is further to open up other new points of view and to develop some of the new truths +which thus become accessible. We shall here give an account of those things which +can be made intelligible in a few words. But we wish to remark at the outset that +the new theorems as well as the presentations of new ideas, if the greatest generality +is to be attained, are still partly in need of some limitations or closer determinations, +which must be omitted here. + +In researches in which an infinity of directions of straight lines in space is concerned, +it is advantageous to represent these directions by means of those points upon +a fixed sphere, which are the end points of the radii drawn parallel to the lines. The +centre and the radius of this \emph{auxiliary sphere} are here quite arbitrary. The radius may +be taken equal to unity. This procedure agrees fundamentally with that which is constantly +employed in astronomy, where all directions are referred to a fictitious celestial +sphere of infinite radius. Spherical trigonometry and certain other theorems, to which +the author has added a new one of frequent application, then serve for the solution of +the problems which the comparison of the various directions involved can present. +\PageSep{46} + +If we represent the direction of the normal at each point of the curved surface by +the corresponding point of the sphere, determined as above indicated, namely, in this +way, to every point on the surface, let a point on the sphere correspond; then, generally +speaking, to every line on the curved surface will correspond a line on the sphere, +and to every part of the former surface will correspond a part of the latter. The less +this part differs from a plane, the smaller will be the corresponding part on the sphere. +It is, therefore, a very natural idea to use as the measure of the total curvature, +which is to be assigned to a part of the curved surface, the area of the corresponding +part of the sphere. For this reason the author calls this area the \emph{integral curvature} of +the corresponding part of the curved surface. Besides the magnitude of the part, there +is also at the same time its \emph{position} to be considered. And this position may be in +the two parts similar or inverse, quite independently of the relation of their magnitudes. +The two cases can be distinguished by the positive or negative sign of the +total curvature. This distinction has, however, a definite meaning only when the +figures are regarded as upon definite sides of the two surfaces. The author regards +the figure in the case of the sphere on the outside, and in the case of the curved surface +on that side upon which we consider the normals erected. It follows then that +the positive sign is taken in the case of convexo-convex or concavo-concave surfaces +(which are not essentially different), and the negative in the case of concavo-convex +surfaces. If the part of the curved surface in question consists of parts of these different +sorts, still closer definition is necessary, which must be omitted here. + +The comparison of the areas of two corresponding parts of the curved surface and of +the sphere leads now (in the same manner as, \eg, from the comparison of volume and +mass springs the idea of density) to a new idea. The author designates as \emph{measure of +curvature} at a point of the curved surface the value of the fraction whose denominator is +the area of the infinitely small part of the curved surface at this point and whose numerator +is the area of the corresponding part of the surface of the auxiliary sphere, or the +integral curvature of that element. It is clear that, according to the idea of the author, +integral curvature and measure of curvature in the case of curved surfaces are analogous +to what, in the case of curved lines, are called respectively amplitude and curvature +simply. He hesitates to apply to curved surfaces the latter expressions, which +have been accepted more from custom than on account of fitness. Moreover, less +depends upon the choice of words than upon this, that their introduction shall be justified +by pregnant theorems. + +The solution of the problem, to find the measure of curvature at any point of a curved +surface, appears in different forms according to the manner in which the nature of the +curved surface is given. When the points in space, in general, are distinguished by +\PageSep{47} +three rectangular coordinates, the simplest method is to express one coordinate as a function +of the other two. In this way we obtain the simplest expression for the measure of +curvature. But, at the same time, there arises a remarkable relation between this +measure of curvature and the curvatures of the curves formed by the intersections of +the curved surface with planes normal to it. \textsc{Euler}, as is well known, first showed +that two of these cutting planes which intersect each other at right angles have this +property, that in one is found the greatest and in the other the smallest radius of curvature; +or, more correctly, that in them the two extreme curvatures are found. It will +follow then from the above mentioned expression for the measure of curvature that this +will be equal to a fraction whose numerator is unity and whose denominator is the product +of the extreme radii of curvature. The expression for the measure of curvature will be +less simple, if the nature of the curved surface is determined by an equation in $x$,~$y$,~$z$. +And it will become still more complex, if the nature of the curved surface is given so that +$x$,~$y$,~$z$ are expressed in the form of functions of two new variables $p$,~$q$. In this last case +the expression involves fifteen elements, namely, the partial differential coefficients of the +first and second orders of $x$,~$y$,~$z$ with respect to $p$~and~$q$. But it is less important in itself +than for the reason that it facilitates the transition to another expression, which must be +classed with the most remarkable theorems of this study. If the nature of the curved +surface be expressed by this method, the general expression for any linear element upon +it, or for $\Sqrt{dx^{2} + dy^{2} + dz^{2}}$, has the form $\Sqrt{E\, dp^{2} + 2F\, dp·dq + G\, dq^{2}}$, where $E$,~$F$,~$G$ +are again functions of $p$~and~$q$. The new expression for the measure of curvature mentioned +above contains merely these magnitudes and their partial differential coefficients +of the first and second order. Therefore we notice that, in order to determine the +measure of curvature, it is necessary to know only the general expression for a linear +element; the expressions for the coordinates $x$,~$y$,~$z$ are not required. A direct result +from this is the remarkable theorem: If a curved surface, or a part of it, can be developed +upon another surface, the measure of curvature at every point remains unchanged +after the development. In particular, it follows from this further: Upon a curved +surface that can be developed upon a plane, the measure of curvature is everywhere +equal to zero. From this we derive at once the characteristic equation of surfaces +developable upon a plane, namely, +\[ +\frac{\dd^{2} z}{\dd x^{2}}·\frac{\dd^{2} z}{\dd y^{2}} + - \left(\frac{\dd^{2} z}{\dd x·\dd y}\right)^{2} = 0, +\] +when $z$~is regarded as a function of $x$~and~$y$. This equation has been known for some +time, but according to the author's judgment it has not been established previously +with the necessary rigor. +\PageSep{48} + +These theorems lead to the consideration of the theory of curved surfaces from a +new point of view, where a wide and still wholly uncultivated field is open to investigation. +If we consider surfaces not as boundaries of bodies, but as bodies of which +one dimension vanishes, and if at the same time we conceive them as flexible but not +extensible, we see that two essentially different relations must be distinguished, namely, +on the one hand, those that presuppose a definite form of the surface in space; on the +other hand, those that are independent of the various forms which the surface may +assume. This discussion is concerned with the latter. In accordance with what has +been said, the measure of curvature belongs to this case. But it is easily seen that +the consideration of figures constructed upon the surface, their angles, their areas and +their integral curvatures, the joining of the points by means of shortest lines, and the +like, also belong to this case. All such investigations must start from this, that the +very nature of the curved surface is given by means of the expression of any linear +element in the form $\Sqrt{E\, dp^{2} + 2F\, dp·dq + G\, dq^{2}}$. The author has embodied in the +present treatise a portion of his investigations in this field, made several years ago, +while he limits himself to such as are not too remote for an introduction, and may, to +some extent, be generally helpful in many further investigations. In our abstract, we +must limit ourselves still more, and be content with citing only a few of them as +types. The following theorems may serve for this purpose. + +If upon a curved surface a system of infinitely many shortest lines of equal lengths +be drawn from one initial point, then will the line going through the end points of +these shortest lines cut each of them at right angles. If at every point of an arbitrary +line on a curved surface shortest lines of equal lengths be drawn at right angles to this +line, then will all these shortest lines be perpendicular also to the line which joins their +other end points. Both these theorems, of which the latter can be regarded as a generalization +of the former, will be demonstrated both analytically and by simple geometrical +considerations. \begin{Theorem}[]The excess of the sum of the angles of a triangle formed by shortest lines +over two right angles is equal to the total curvature of the triangle.\end{Theorem} It will be assumed here +that that angle ($57°\, 17'\, 45''$) to which an arc equal to the radius of the sphere corresponds +will be taken as the unit for the angles, and that for the unit of total curvature will be +taken a part of the spherical surface, the area of which is a square whose side is equal to +the radius of the sphere. Evidently we can express this important theorem thus also: +the excess over two right angles of the angles of a triangle formed by shortest lines is to +eight right angles as the part of the surface of the auxiliary sphere, which corresponds +to it as its integral curvature, is to the whole surface of the sphere. In general, the +excess over $2n - 4$~right angles of the angles of a polygon of $n$~sides, if these are +shortest lines, will be equal to the integral curvature of the polygon. +\PageSep{49} + +The general investigations developed in this treatise will, in the conclusion, be applied +to the theory of triangles of shortest lines, of which we shall introduce only a couple of +important theorems. If $a$,~$b$,~$c$ be the sides of such a triangle (they will be regarded as +magnitudes of the first order); $A$,~$B$,~$C$ the angles opposite; $\alpha$,~$\beta$,~$\gamma$ the measures of +curvature at the angular points; $\sigma$~the area of the triangle, then, to magnitudes of the +fourth order, $\frac{1}{3}(\alpha + \beta + \gamma)\sigma$ is the excess of the sum $A + B + C$ over two right angles. +Further, with the same degree of exactness, the angles of a plane rectilinear triangle +whose sides are $a$,~$b$,~$c$, are respectively +\begin{align*} +A &- \tfrac{1}{12}(2\alpha + \beta + \gamma)\sigma\Add{,} \\ +B &- \tfrac{1}{12}(\alpha + 2\beta + \gamma)\sigma\Add{,} \\ +C &- \tfrac{1}{12}(\alpha + \beta + 2\gamma)\sigma. +\end{align*} +We see immediately that this last theorem is a generalization of the familiar theorem first +established by \textsc{Legendre}. By means of this theorem we obtain the angles of a plane +triangle, correct to magnitudes of the fourth order, if we diminish each angle of the corresponding +spherical triangle by one-third of the spherical excess. In the case of non-spherical +surfaces, we must apply unequal reductions to the angles, and this inequality, +generally speaking, is a magnitude of the third order. However, even if the whole surface +differs only a little from the spherical form, it will still involve also a factor denoting +the degree of the deviation from the spherical form. It is unquestionably important for +the higher geodesy that we be able to calculate the inequalities of those reductions and +thereby obtain the thorough conviction that, for all measurable triangles on the surface +of the earth, they are to be regarded as quite insensible. So it is, for example, in the +case of the greatest triangle of the triangulation carried out by the author. The greatest +side of this triangle is almost fifteen geographical\footnote + {This German geographical mile is four minutes of arc at the equator, namely, $7.42$~kilometers, + and is equal to about $4.6$~English statute miles. [Translators.]} +miles, and the excess of the sum +of its three angles over two right angles amounts almost to fifteen seconds. The three +reductions of the angles of the plane triangle are $4''.95113$, $4''.95104$, $4''.95131$. Besides, +the author also developed the missing terms of the fourth order in the above expressions. +Those for the sphere possess a very simple form. However, in the case of +measurable triangles upon the earth's surface, they are quite insensible. And in the +example here introduced they would have diminished the first reduction by only two +units in the fifth decimal place and increased the third by the same amount. +\PageSep{50} +%[** Blank page] +\PageSep{51} + + +\Notes. + +%[** TN: Line numbers have been omitted] +\LineRef{1}{Art.~1, p.~3, l.~3}.

We shall even begin by +advancing certain properties concerning plane curves from the same principles. + + +\Article{1.} + +In order to compare in a convenient manner the different directions of straight +lines in a plane with each other, we imagine a circle with unit radius described +in the plane about an arbitrary centre. The position of the radius of this circle, +drawn parallel to a straight line given in advance, represents then the position of that +line. And the angle which two straight lines make with each other is measured by +the angle between the two radii representing them, or by the arc included between +their extremities. Of course, where precise definition is necessary, it is specified at +the outset, for every straight line, in what sense it is regarded as drawn. Without +such a distinction the direction of a straight line would always correspond to two +opposite radii. + + +\Article{2.} + +In the auxiliary circle we take an arbitrary radius as the first, or its terminal +point in the circumference as the origin, and determine the positive sense of measuring +the arcs from this point (whether from left to right or the contrary); in the +opposite direction the arcs are regarded then as negative. Thus every direction of a +straight line is expressed in degrees,~etc., or also by a number which expresses them +in parts of the radius. +\PageSep{82} + +Such lines as differ in direction by~$360°$, or by a multiple of~$360°$, have, therefore, +precisely the same direction, and may, generally speaking, be regarded as the +same. However, in such cases where the manner of describing a variable angle is +taken into consideration, it may be necessary to distinguish carefully angles differing +by~$360°$. + +If, for example, we have decided to measure the arcs from left to right, and if +to two straight lines $l$,~$l'$ correspond the two directions $L$,~$L'$, then $L' - L$ is the angle +between those two straight lines. And it is easily seen that, since $L' - L$ falls +between $-180°$~and~$+180°$, the positive or negative value indicates at once that $l'$~lies +on the right or the left of~$l$, as seen from the point of intersection. This will +be determined generally by the sign of~$\sin(L' - L)$. + +If $aa'$~is a part of a curved line, and if to the tangents at $a$,~$a'$ correspond +respectively the directions $\alpha$,~$\alpha'$, by which letters shall be denoted also the corresponding +points on the auxiliary circles, and if $A$,~$A'$ be their distances along the arc +from the origin, then the magnitude of the arc~$\alpha\alpha'$ or $A' - A$ is called the \emph{amplitude} +of~$aa'$. + +The comparison of the amplitude of the arc~$aa'$ with its length gives us the +notion of curvature. Let $l$~be any point on the arc~$aa'$, and let $\lambda$,~$\Lambda$ be the same +with reference to it that $\alpha$,~$A$ and $\alpha'$,~$A'$ are with reference to $a$~and~$a'$. If now +$\alpha\lambda$~or~$\Lambda - A$ be proportional to the part~$al$ of the arc, then we shall say that $aa'$~is +uniformly curved throughout its whole length, and we shall call +\[ +\frac{\Lambda - A}{al} +\] +the measure of curvature, or simply the curvature. We easily see that this happens +only when $aa'$~is actually the arc of a circle, and that then, according to our definition, +its curvature will be~$±\dfrac{1}{r}$ if $r$~denotes the radius. Since we always regard $r$ +as positive, the upper or the lower sign will hold according as the centre lies to the +right or to the left of the arc~$aa'$ ($a$~being regarded as the initial point, $a'$~as the +end point, and the directions on the auxiliary circle being measured from left to +right). Changing one of these conditions changes the sign, changing two restores it +again. + +On the contrary, if $\Lambda - A$ be not proportional to~$al$, then we call the arc non-uniformly +curved and the quotient +\[ +\frac{\Lambda - A}{al} +\] +\PageSep{83} +may then be called its mean curvature. Curvature, on the contrary, always presupposes +that the point is determined, and is defined as the mean curvature of an element +at this point; it is therefore equal to +\[ +\frac{d\Lambda}{d\,al}. +\] +We see, therefore, that arc, amplitude, and curvature sustain a similar relation to each +other as time, motion, and velocity, or as volume, mass, and density. The reciprocal +of the curvature, namely, +\[ +\frac{d\,al}{d\Lambda}, +\] +is called the radius of curvature at the point~$l$. And, in keeping with the above +conventions, the curve at this point is called concave toward the right and convex +toward the left, if the value of the curvature or of the radius of curvature happens +to be positive; but, if it happens to be negative, the contrary is true. + + +\Article{3.} + +If we refer the position of a point in the plane to two perpendicular axes of +coordinates to which correspond the directions $0$~and~$90°$, in such a manner that the +first coordinate represents the distance of the point from the second axis, measured in +the direction of the first axis; whereas the second coordinate represents the distance +from the first axis, measured in the direction of the second axis; if, further, the indeterminates +$x$,~$y$ represent the coordinates of a point on the curved line, $s$~the length +of the line measured from an arbitrary origin to this point, $\phi$~the direction of the +tangent at this point, and $r$~the radius of curvature; then we shall have +\begin{align*} +dx &= \cos\phi·ds, \\ +dy &= \sin\phi·ds, \\ +r &= \frac{ds}{d\phi}. +\end{align*} + +If the nature of the curved line is defined by the equation $V = 0$, where $V$~is a +function of $x$,~$y$, and if we set +\[ +dV = p\, dx + q\, dy, +\] +then on the curved line +\[ +p\, dx + q\, dy = 0. +\] +Hence +\[ +p\cos\phi + q\sin\phi = 0, +\] +\PageSep{84} +and therefore +\[ +\tan\phi = -\frac{p}{q}. +\] +We have also +\[ +\cos\phi·dp + \sin\phi·dq - (p\sin\phi - q\cos\phi)\, d\phi = 0. +\] +If, therefore, we set, according to a well known theorem, +\begin{align*} +dp &= P\, dx + Q\, dy, \\ +dq &= Q\, dx + R\, dy, +\end{align*} +then we have\Note{32} +\[ +(P\cos^{2}\phi + 2Q\cos\phi\sin\phi + R\sin^{2}\phi)\, ds + = (p\sin\phi - q\cos\phi)\, d\phi,\NoteMark +\] +therefore +\[ +\frac{1}{r} + = \frac{P\cos^{2}\phi + 2Q\cos\phi\sin\phi + R\sin^{2}\phi} + {p\sin\phi - q\cos\phi}, +\] +or, since\Note{33} +\begin{gather*} +\cos\phi = \frac{\mp q}{\Sqrt{p^{2} + q^{2}}},\qquad +\sin\phi = \frac{±p}{\Sqrt{p^{2} + q^{2}}};\NoteMark \\ +±\frac{1}{r} = \frac{Pq^{2} - 2Qpq + Rp^{2}}{(p^{2} + q^{2})^{3/2}}. +\end{gather*} + + +\Article{4.} + +The ambiguous sign in the last formula might at first seem out of place, but +upon closer consideration it is found to be quite in order. In fact, since this expression +depends simply upon the partial differentials of~$V$, and since the function $V$~itself +merely defines the nature of the curve without at the same time fixing the sense in +which it is supposed to be described, the question, whether the curve is convex +toward the right or left, must remain undetermined until the sense is determined by +some other means. The case is similar in the determination of~$\phi$ by means of the +tangent, to single values of which correspond two angles differing by~$180°$. The +sense in which the curve is described can be specified in the following different ways. + +\Par{I.} By means of the sign of the change in~$x$. If $x$~increases, then $\cos\phi$ must be +positive. Hence the upper signs will hold if $q$~has a negative value, and the lower +signs if $q$~has a positive value. When $x$~decreases, the contrary is true. + +\Par{II.} By means of the sign of the change in~$y$. If $y$~increases, the upper signs +must be taken when $p$~is positive, the lower when $p$~is negative. The contrary is +true when $y$~decreases. + +\Par{III.} By means of the sign of the value which the function~$V$ takes for points +not on the curve. Let $\delta x$,~$\delta y$ be the variations of $x$,~$y$ when we go out from the +\PageSep{85} +curve toward the right, at right angles to the tangent, that is, in the direction~$\phi + 90°$; +and let the length of this normal be~$\delta\rho$. Then, evidently, we have +\begin{align*} +\delta x &= \delta\rho·\cos(\phi + 90°), \\ +\delta y &= \delta\rho·\sin(\phi + 90°), +\end{align*} +or +\begin{align*} +\delta x &= -\delta\rho·\sin\phi, \\ +\delta y &= +\delta\rho·\cos\phi. +\end{align*} +Since now, when $\delta\rho$~is infinitely small, +\begin{align*} +\delta V &= p\, \delta x + q\, \delta y \\ + &= (-p\sin\phi + q\cos\phi)\, \delta\rho \\ + &= \mp\delta\rho\Sqrt{p^{2} + q^{2}}\Add{,} +\end{align*} +and since on the curve itself $V$~vanishes, the upper signs will hold if~$V$, on passing +through the curve from left to right, changes from positive to negative, and the contrary. +If we combine this with what is said at the end of \Art{2}, it follows that the +curve is always convex toward that side on which $V$~receives the same sign as +\[ +Pq^{2} - 2Qpq + Rp^{2}. +\] + +For example, if the curve is a circle, and if we set +\[ +V = x^{2} + y^{2} - a^{2}\Add{,} +\] +then we have +\begin{gather*} +p = 2x,\qquad q = 2y, \\ +P = 2,\qquad Q = 0,\qquad R = 2, \\ +Pq^{2} - 2Qpq + Rp^{2} = 8y^{2} + 8x^{2} = 8a^{2}, \\ +(p^{2} + q^{2})^{3/2} = 8a^{3}, \\ +r = ± a\Add{;} +\end{gather*} +and the curve will be convex toward that side for which +\[ +x^{2} + y^{2} > a^{2}, +\] +as it should be. + +The side toward which the curve is convex, or, what is the same thing, the signs +in the above formulæ, will remain unchanged by moving along the curve, so long as +\[ +\frac{\delta V}{\delta\rho} +\] +does not change its sign. Since $V$~is a continuous function, such a change can take +place only when this ratio passes through the value zero. But this necessarily presupposes +that $p$~and~$q$ become zero at the same time. At such a point the radius +\PageSep{86} +of curvature becomes infinite or the curvature vanishes. Then, generally speaking, +since here +\[ +-p\sin\phi + q\cos\phi +\] +will change its sign, we have here a point of inflexion. + + +\Article{5.} + +The case where the nature of the curve is expressed by setting $y$~equal to a +given function of~$x$, namely, $y = X$, is included in the foregoing, if we set +\[ +V = X - y. +\] +If we put +\[ +dX = X'\, dx,\qquad +dX' = X''\, dx, +\] +then we have +\begin{gather*} +p = X',\qquad q = -1, \\ +P = X'', \qquad Q = 0,\qquad R = 0, +\end{gather*} +therefore +\[ +±\frac{1}{r} = \frac{X''}{(1 + X'^{2})^{3/2}}. +\] +Since $q$~is negative here, the upper sign holds for increasing values of~$x$. We can +therefore say, briefly, that for a positive~$X''$ the curve is concave toward the same +side toward which the $y$-axis lies with reference to the $x$-axis; while for a negative~$X''$ +the curve is convex toward this side. + + +\Article{6.} + +If we regard $x$,~$y$ as functions of~$s$, these formulæ become still more elegant. +Let us set +\begin{alignat*}{2} +\frac{dx}{ds} &= x',\qquad& \frac{dx'}{ds} &= x'', \\ +\frac{dy}{ds} &= y',\qquad& \frac{dy'}{ds} &= y''. +\end{alignat*} +Then we shall have +\begin{alignat*}{2} +x' &= \cos\phi,\qquad & y' &= \sin\phi, \\ +x'' &= -\frac{\sin\phi}{r},\qquad & y'' &= \frac{\cos\phi}{r}; +\intertext{or} +y' &= -rx'',\qquad& x' &= ry'', +\end{alignat*} +\PageSep{87} +or also +\[ +1 = r(x'y'' - y'x''), +\] +so that +\[ +x'y'' - y'x'' +\] +represents the curvature, and +\[ +\frac{1}{x'y'' - y'x''} +\] +the radius of curvature. + + +\Article{7.} + +We shall now proceed to the consideration of curved surfaces. In order to represent +the directions of straight lines in space considered in its three dimensions, we +imagine a sphere of unit radius described about an arbitrary centre. Accordingly, a +point on this sphere will represent the direction of all straight lines parallel to the +radius whose extremity is at this point. As the positions of all points in space +are determined by the perpendicular distances $x$,~$y$,~$z$ from three mutually perpendicular +planes, the directions of the three principal axes, which are normal to these +principal planes, shall be represented on the auxiliary sphere by the three points +$(1)$,~$(2)$,~$(3)$. These points are, therefore, always $90°$~apart, and at once indicate the +sense in which the coordinates are supposed to increase. We shall here state several +well known theorems, of which constant use will be made. + +\Par{1)} The angle between two intersecting straight lines is measured by the arc [of +the great circle] between the points on the sphere which represent their directions. + +\Par{2)} The orientation of every plane can be represented on the sphere by means +of the great circle in which the sphere is cut by the plane through the centre parallel +to the first plane. + +\Par{3)} The angle between two planes is equal to the angle between the great circles +which represent their orientations, and is therefore also measured by the angle +between the poles of the great circles. + +\Par{4)} If $x$,~$y$,~$z$; $x'$,~$y'$,~$z'$ are the coordinates of two points, $r$~the distance between +them, and $L$~the point on the sphere which represents the direction of the straight +line drawn from the first point to the second, then +\begin{alignat*}{2} +x' &= x &&+ r\cos(1)L, \\ +y' &= y &&+ r\cos(2)L, \\ +2' &= z &&+ r\cos(3)L. +\end{alignat*} + +\Par{5)} It follows immediately from this that we always have +\[ +\cos^{2}(1)L + \cos^{2}(2)L + \cos^{2}(3)L = 1 +\] +\PageSep{88} +[and] also, if $L'$~is any other point on the sphere, +\[ +\cos(1)L·\cos(1)L' + \cos(2)L·\cos(2)L' + \cos(3)L·\cos(3)L' = \cos LL'. +\] + +We shall add here another theorem, which has appeared nowhere else, as far as +we know, and which can often be used with advantage. + +Let $L$, $L'$, $L''$, $L'''$ be four points on the sphere, and $A$~the angle which $LL'''$ +and $L'L''$ make at their point of intersection. [Then we have] +\[ +\cos LL'·\cos L''L''' - \cos LL''·\cos L'L''' = \sin LL'''·\sin L'L''·\cos A. +\] + +The proof is easily obtained in the following way. Let +\[ +AL = t,\qquad +AL' = t',\qquad +AL'' = t'',\qquad +AL''' = t'''; +\] +we have then +\begin{alignat*}{6} +&\cos L L' &&= \cos t &&\cos t' &&+ \sin t &&\sin t' &&\cos A, \\ +&\cos L''L''' &&= \cos t''&&\cos t''' &&+ \sin t''&&\sin t'''&&\cos A, \\ +&\cos L L'' &&= \cos t &&\cos t'' &&+ \sin t &&\sin t'' &&\cos A, \\ +&\cos L' L''' &&= \cos t' &&\cos t''' &&+ \sin t' &&\sin t'''&&\cos A. +\end{alignat*} +Therefore +\begin{multline*} +\cos LL' \cos L''L''' - \cos LL'' \cos L'L'' \\ +\begin{aligned} +&= \cos A \{\cos t \cos t' \sin t''\sin t''' + + \cos t''\cos t'''\sin t \sin t' \\ +&\qquad\qquad + - \cos t\cos t''\sin t'\sin t''' - \cos t'\cos t'''\sin t\sin t''\} \\ +&= \cos A (\cos t \sin t''' - \cos t'''\sin t) + (\cos t'\sin t'' - \cos t'' \sin t') \\ +&= \cos A \sin (t''' - t) \sin(t'' - t') \\ +&= \cos A \sin LL''' \sin L'L''. +\end{aligned} +\end{multline*} + +Since each of the two great circles goes out from~$A$ in two opposite directions, +two supplementary angles are formed at this point. But it is seen from our analysis +that those branches must be chosen, which go in the same sense from~$L$ toward~$L'''$ +and from $L'$~toward~$L''$. + +Instead of the angle~$A$, we can take also the distance of the pole of the great +circle~$LL'''$ from the pole of the great circle~$L'L''$. However, since every great circle +has two poles, we see that we must join those about which the great circles run in +the same sense from~$L$ toward~$L'''$ and from~$L'$ toward~$L''$, respectively. + +The development of the special case, where one or both of the arcs $LL'''$~and~$L'L''$ are~$90°$, we leave to the reader. + +\Par{6)} Another useful theorem is obtained from the following analysis. Let $L$,~$L'$,~$L''$ +be three points upon the sphere and put +\PageSep{89} +\begin{alignat*}{6} +&\cos L &&(1) = x, &&\cos L &&(2) = y, &&\cos L &&(3) = z, \\ +&\cos L' &&(1) = x', &&\cos L' &&(2) = y', &&\cos L' &&(3) = z', \\ +&\cos L''&&(1) = x'',\quad&&\cos L'' &&(2) = y'',\quad&&\cos L'' &&(3) = z''. +\end{alignat*} + +We assume that the points are so arranged that they run around the triangle +included by them in the same sense as the points $(1)$,~$(2)$,~$(3)$. Further, let $\lambda$~be +that pole of the great circle~$L'L''$ which lies on the same side as~$L$. We then have, +from the above lemma, +\begin{alignat*}{3} +&y'z'' &&- z'y'' &&= \sin L'L''·\cos\lambda(1), \\ +&z'x'' &&- x'z'' &&= \sin L'L''·\cos\lambda(2), \\ +&x'y'' &&- y'x'' &&= \sin L'L''·\cos\lambda(3). +\end{alignat*} +Therefore, if we multiply these equations by $x$,~$y$,~$z$ respectively, and add the products, +we obtain\Note{34} +\[ +xy'z'' + x'y''z + x''yz' - xy''z' - x'yz'' - x''y'z + = \sin L'L''·\cos\lambda L,\NoteMark +\] +wherefore, we can write also, according to well known principles of spherical trigonometry, +\begin{alignat*}{2} + \sin L'L''·&\sin L L''&&·\sin L' \\ += \sin L'L''·&\sin L L' &&·\sin L'' \\ += \sin L'L''·&\sin L'L''&&·\sin L, +\end{alignat*} +if $L$,~$L'$,~$L''$ denote the three angles of the spherical triangle. At the same time we +easily see that this value is one-sixth of the pyramid whose angular points are the +centre of the sphere and the three points $L$,~$L'$,~$L''$ (and indeed \emph{positive}, if~etc.). + + +\Article{8.} + +The nature of a curved surface is defined by an equation between the coordinates +of its points, which we represent by +\[ +f(x, y, z) = 0.\NoteMark +\] +Let the total differential of $f(x, y, z)$ be +\[ +P\, dx + Q\, dy + R\, dz, +\] +where $P$,~$Q$,~$R$ are functions of $x$,~$y$,~$z$. We shall always distinguish two sides of the +surface, one of which we shall call the upper, and the other the lower. Generally +speaking, on passing through the surface the value of~$f$ changes its sign, so that, as +long as the continuity is not interrupted, the values are positive on one side and negative +on the other. +\PageSep{90} + +The direction of the normal to the surface toward that side which we regard as +the upper side is represented upon the auxiliary sphere by the point~$L$. Let +\[ +\cos L(1) = X,\qquad +\cos L(2) = Y,\qquad +\cos L(3) = Z. +\] +Also let $ds$~denote an infinitely small line upon the surface; and, as its direction is +denoted by the point~$\lambda$ on the sphere, let +\[ +\cos \lambda(1) = \xi,\qquad +\cos \lambda(2) = \eta,\qquad +\cos \lambda(3) = \zeta. +\] +We then have +\[ +dx = \xi\, ds,\qquad +dy = \eta\, ds,\qquad +dz = \zeta\, ds, +\] +therefore +\[ +P\xi + Q\eta + R\zeta = 0, +\] +and, since $\lambda L$ must be equal to~$90°$, we have also +\[ +X\xi + Y\eta + Z\zeta = 0. +\] +Since $P$,~$Q$,~$R$, $X$,~$Y$,~$Z$ depend only on the position of the surface on which we take +the element, and since these equations hold for every direction of the element on the +surface, it is easily seen that $P$,~$Q$,~$R$ must be proportional to $X$,~$Y$,~$Z$. Therefore +\[ +P = X\mu,\qquad +Q = Y\mu,\qquad +R = Z\mu\Typo{,}{.} +\] +Therefore, since +\begin{gather*} +X^{2} + Y^{2} + Z^{2} = 1; \\ +\mu = PX + QY + RZ +\intertext{and} +\mu^{2} = P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}, \\ +\intertext{or} +\mu = ±\Sqrt{P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}}. +\end{gather*} + +If we go out from the surface, in the direction of the normal, a distance equal to +the element~$\delta\rho$, then we shall have +\[ +\delta x = X\, \delta\rho,\qquad +\delta y = Y\, \delta\rho,\qquad +\delta z = Z\, \delta\rho +\] +and +\[ +\delta f = P\, \delta x + Q\, \delta y + R\, \delta z = \mu\, \delta\rho. +\] +We see, therefore, how the sign of~$\mu$ depends on the change of sign of the value of~$f$ +in passing from the lower to the upper side. + + +\Article{9.} + +Let us cut the curved surface by a plane through the point to which our notation +refers; then we obtain a plane curve of which $ds$~is an element, in connection +with which we shall retain the above notation. We shall regard as the upper side of +the plane that one on which the normal to the curved surface lies. Upon this plane +\PageSep{91} +we erect a normal whose direction is expressed by the point~$\L$ of the auxiliary +sphere. By moving along the curved line, $\lambda$~and~$L$ will therefore change their positions, +while $\L$~remains constant, and $\lambda L$~and~$\lambda\L$ are always equal to~$90°$. Therefore +$\lambda$~describes the great circle one of whose poles is~$\L$. The element of this great circle +will be equal to~$\dfrac{ds}{r}$, if $r$~denotes the radius of curvature of the curve. And again, +if we denote the direction of this element upon the sphere by~$\lambda'$, then $\lambda'$~will evidently +lie in the same great circle and be $90°$~from~$\lambda$ as well as from~$\L$. If we +now set +\[ +\cos \lambda'(1) = \xi',\qquad +\cos \lambda'(2) = \eta',\qquad +\cos \lambda'(3) = \zeta', +\] +then we shall have +\[ +d\xi = \xi'\, \frac{ds}{r},\qquad +d\eta = \eta'\, \frac{ds}{r},\qquad +d\zeta = \zeta'\, \frac{ds}{r}, +\] +since, in fact, $\xi$,~$\eta$,~$\zeta$ are merely the coordinates of the point~$\lambda$ referred to the centre +of the sphere. + +Since by the solution of the equation $f(x, y, z) = 0$ the coordinate~$z$ may be +expressed in the form of a function of $x$,~$y$, we shall, for greater simplicity, assume +that this has been done and that we have found +\[ +z = F(x, y). +\] +We can then write as the equation of the surface +\[ +z - F(x, y) = 0, +\] +or +\[ +f(x, y, z) = z - F(x, y). +\] + +From this follows, if we set +\begin{gather*} +dF(x, y) = t\, dx + u\, dy, \\ +P = -t,\qquad +Q = -u,\qquad +R = 1, +\end{gather*} +where $t$,~$u$ are merely functions of $x$~and~$y$. We set also +\[ +dt = T\, dx + U\, dy,\qquad +du = U\, dx + V\, dy. +\] + +Therefore upon the whole surface we have +\[ +dz = t\, dx + u\, dy +\] +and therefore, on the curve, +\[ +\zeta = t\xi + u\eta. +\] +Hence differentiation gives, on substituting the above values for $d\xi$,~$d\eta$,~$d\zeta$, +\begin{align*} +(\zeta' - t\xi' - u\eta') \frac{ds}{r} + &= \xi\, dt + \eta\, du \\ + &= (\xi^{2}T + 2\xi\eta U + \eta^{2}V)\, ds, +\end{align*} +\PageSep{92} +or +\begin{align*} +\frac{1}{r} + &= \frac{\xi^{2}T + 2\xi\eta U + \eta^{2}V}{-\xi' t - \eta'\Typo{\mu}{u} + \zeta'} \\ + &= \frac{Z(\xi^{2}T + 2\xi\eta U + \eta^{2}V)}{X\xi' - Y\eta' + Z\zeta'} \\ + &= \frac{Z(\xi^{2}T + 2\xi\eta U + \eta^{2}V)}{\cos L\lambda'}. +\end{align*} + + +\Article{10.} + +Before we further transform the expression just found, we will make a few +remarks about it. + +A normal to a curve in its plane corresponds to two directions upon the sphere, +according as we draw it on the one or the other side of the curve. The one direction, +toward which the curve is \emph{concave}, is denoted by~$\lambda'$, the other by the opposite +point on the sphere. Both these points, like $L$~and~$\L$, are $90°$~from~$\lambda$, and therefore +lie in a great circle. And since $\L$~is also $90°$~from~$\lambda$, $\L L = 90° - L\lambda'$, or +$= L\lambda' - 90°$. Therefore +\[ +\cos L\lambda' = ±\sin \L L, +\] +where $\sin \L L$ is necessarily positive. Since $r$~is regarded as positive in our analysis, +the sign of~$\cos L\lambda'$ will be the same as that of +\[ +Z(\xi^{2}T + 2\xi\eta U + \eta^{2}V). +\] +And therefore a positive value of this last expression means that $L\lambda'$~is less than~$90°$, +or that the curve is concave toward the side on which lies the projection of the +normal to the surface upon the plane. A negative value, on the contrary, shows that +the curve is convex toward this side. Therefore, in general, we may set also +\[ +\frac{1}{r} = \frac{Z(\xi^{2}T + 2\xi\eta U + \eta^{2}V)}{\sin \L L}, +\] +if we regard the radius of curvature as positive in the first case, and negative in +the second. $\L L$~is here the angle which our cutting plane makes with the plane +tangent to the curved surface, and we see that in the different cutting planes passed +through the same point and the same tangent the radii of curvature are proportional +to the sine of the inclination. Because of this simple relation, we shall limit ourselves +hereafter to the case where this angle is a right angle, and where the cutting +\PageSep{93} +plane, therefore, is passed through the normal of the curved surface. Hence we have +for the radius of curvature the simple formula +\[ +\frac{1}{r} = Z(\xi^{2}T + 2\xi\eta U + \eta^{2}V). +\] + + +\Article{11.} + +Since an infinite number of planes may be passed through this normal, it follows +that there may be infinitely many different values of the radius of curvature. In this +case $T$,~$U$,~$V$,~$Z$ are regarded as constant, $\xi$,~$\eta$,~$\zeta$ as variable. In order to make the +latter depend upon a single variable, we take two fixed points $M$,~$M'$ $90°$~apart on the +great circle whose pole is~$L$. Let their coordinates referred to the centre of the sphere +be $\alpha$,~$\beta$,~$\gamma$; $\alpha'$,~$\beta'$,~$\gamma'$. We have then +\[ +\cos\lambda(1) + = \cos\lambda M ·\cos M(1) + + \cos\lambda M'·\cos M'(1) + + \cos\lambda L ·\cos L(1). +\] +If we set +\[ +\lambda M = \phi, +\] +then we have +\[ +\cos\lambda M' = \sin\phi, +\] +and the formula becomes +\begin{align*} +\xi &= \alpha\cos\phi + \alpha'\sin\phi, +\intertext{and likewise} +\eta &= \beta \cos\phi + \beta' \sin\phi, \\ +\zeta &= \gamma\cos\phi + \gamma'\sin\phi. +\end{align*} + +Therefore, if we set\Note{35} +\begin{align*} +A &= (\alpha^{2}T + 2\alpha\beta U + \beta^{2}V)Z, \\ +B &= (\alpha\alpha'T + (\alpha'\beta + \alpha\beta')U + \beta\beta'V)Z,\NoteMark \\ +C &= (\alpha'^{2}T + 2\alpha'\beta' U + \beta'^{2}V)Z, +\end{align*} +we shall have +\begin{align*} +\frac{1}{r} + &= A\cos^{2}\phi + 2B\cos\phi \sin\phi + C\sin^{2}\phi \\ + &= \frac{A + C}{2} + \frac{A - C}{2}\cos 2\phi + B\sin 2\phi. +\end{align*} +If we put +\begin{align*} +\frac{A - C}{2} &= E\cos 2\theta, \\ +B &= E\sin 2\theta, +\end{align*} +\PageSep{94} +where we may assume that $E$~has the same sign as~$\dfrac{A - C}{2}$, then we have +\[ +\frac{1}{r} = \tfrac{1}{2}(A + C) + E\cos 2(\phi - \theta). +\] +It is evident that $\phi$~denotes the angle between the cutting plane and another plane +through this normal and that tangent which corresponds to the direction~$M$. Evidently, +therefore, $\dfrac{1}{r}$~takes its greatest (absolute) value, or $r$~its smallest, when $\phi = \theta$; and $\dfrac{1}{r}$~its +smallest absolute value, when $\phi = \theta + 90°$. Therefore the greatest and the least +curvatures occur in two planes perpendicular to each other. Hence these extreme +values for~$\dfrac{1}{r}$ are +\[ +\tfrac{1}{2}(A + C) ± \SQRT{\left(\frac{A - C}{2}\right)^{2} + B^{2}}. +\] +Their sum is $A + C$ and their product $AC - B^{2}$, or the product of the two extreme +radii of curvature is +\[ += \frac{1}{AC - B^{2}}. +\] +This product, which is of great importance, merits a more rigorous development. +In fact, from formulæ above we find +\[ +AC - B^{2} = (\alpha\beta' -\beta\alpha')^{2}(TV - U^{2})Z^{2}. +\] +But from the third formula in [Theorem]~6, \Art{7}, we easily infer that\Note{36} +\[ +\alpha\beta' - \beta\alpha' = ±Z,\NoteMark +\] +therefore +\[ +AC - B^{2} = Z^{4}(TV - U^{2}). +\] +Besides, from \Art{8}, +\begin{align*} +Z &= ±\frac{R}{\Sqrt{P^{2} + Q^{2} + R^{2}}} \\ + &= ±\frac{1}{\Sqrt{1 + t^{2} + u^{2}}}, +\end{align*} +therefore +\[ +AC - B^{2} = \frac{TV - U^{2}}{(1 + t^{2} + u^{2})^{2}}. +\] + +Just as to \emph{each} point on the curved surface corresponds a particular point~$L$ on +the auxiliary sphere, by means of the normal erected at this point and the radius of +\PageSep{95} +the auxiliary sphere parallel to the normal, so the aggregate of the points on the +auxiliary sphere, which correspond to all the points of a \emph{line} on the curved surface, +forms a line which will correspond to the line on the curved surface. And, likewise, +to every finite figure on the curved surface will correspond a finite figure on the +auxiliary sphere, the area of which upon the latter shall be regarded as the measure +of the amplitude of the former. We shall either regard this area as a number, in +which case the square of the radius of the auxiliary sphere is the unit, or else +express it in degrees,~etc., setting the area of the hemisphere equal to~$360°$. + +The comparison of the area upon the curved surface with the corresponding +amplitude leads to the idea of what we call the measure of curvature of the surface. +If the former is proportional to the latter, the curvature is called uniform; +and the quotient, when we divide the amplitude by the surface, is called the measure +of curvature. This is the case when the curved surface is a sphere, and the measure +of curvature is then a fraction whose numerator is unity and whose denominator is +the square of the radius. + +We shall regard the measure of curvature as positive, if the boundaries of the +figures upon the curved surface and upon the auxiliary sphere run in the same sense; +as negative, if the boundaries enclose the figures in contrary senses. If they are not +proportional, the surface is \Typo{non-uniformily}{non-uniformly} curved. And at each point there exists a +particular measure of curvature, which is obtained from the comparison of corresponding +infinitesimal parts upon the curved surface and the auxiliary sphere.

Since the curved line lies upon a given curved surface whose equation is +\[ +P\, dx + Q\, dy + R\, dz = 0, +\] +the equation between the variations $\delta x$,~$\delta y$,~$\delta z$ +\[ +P\, \delta z + Q\, \delta y + R\, \delta z = 0 +\] +must also hold. From this, by means of well known principles, we easily conclude +that the differentials +\PageSep{98} +\begin{gather*} + d·\frac{\dfrac{dx}{dw}} + {\SQRT{\left(\dfrac{dx}{dw}\right)^{2} + + \left(\dfrac{dy}{dw}\right)^{2} + + \left(\dfrac{dz}{dw}\right)^{2}}}, \\ + d·\frac{\dfrac{dy}{dw}} + {\SQRT{\left(\dfrac{dx}{dw}\right)^{2} + + \left(\dfrac{dy}{dw}\right)^{2} + + \left(\dfrac{dz}{dw}\right)^{2}}}, \\ + d·\frac{\dfrac{dz}{dw}} + {\SQRT{\left(\dfrac{dx}{dw}\right)^{2} + + \left(\dfrac{dy}{dw}\right)^{2} + + \left(\dfrac{dz}{dw}\right)^{2}}} +\end{gather*} +must be proportional to the quantities $P$,~$Q$,~$R$ respectively. If $ds$~is an element of +the curve; $\lambda$~the point upon the auxiliary sphere, which represents the direction of +this element; $L$~the point giving the direction of the normal as above; and $\xi$,~$\eta$,~$\zeta$; +$X$,~$Y$,~$Z$ the coordinates of the points $\lambda$,~$L$ referred to the centre of the auxiliary +sphere, then we have +\begin{gather*} +dx = \xi\, ds,\qquad +dy = \eta\, ds,\qquad +dz = \zeta\, ds, \\ +\xi^{2} + \eta^{2} + \zeta^{2} = 1. +\end{gather*} +Therefore we see that the above differentials will be equal to $d\xi$,~$d\eta$,~$d\zeta$. And since +$P$,~$Q$,~$R$ are proportional to the quantities $X$,~$Y$,~$Z$, the character of the shortest line +is such that +\[ +\frac{d\xi}{X} = \frac{d\eta}{Y} = \frac{d\zeta}{Z}. +\] + + +\Article{13.} + +To every point of a curved line upon a curved surface there correspond two +points on the sphere, according to our point of view; namely, the point~$\lambda$, which +represents the direction of the linear element, and the point~$L$, which represents the +direction of the normal to the surface. The two are evidently $90°$~apart. In our +former investigation (\Art{9}), where [we] supposed the curved line to lie in a plane, +we had \emph{two} other points upon the sphere; namely,~$\L$, which represents the direction +of the normal to the plane, and~$\lambda'$, which represents the direction of the normal to +the element of the curve in the plane. In this case, therefore, $\L$~was a fixed point +and $\lambda$,~$\lambda'$ were always in a great circle whose pole was~$\L$. In generalizing these +considerations, we shall retain the notation $\L$,~$\lambda'$, but we must define the meaning of +these symbols from a more general point of view. When the curve~$s$ is described, +the points $L$,~$\lambda$ also describe curved lines upon the auxiliary sphere, which, generally +speaking, are no longer great circles. Parallel to the element of the second line, +\PageSep{99} +we draw a radius of the auxiliary sphere to the point~$\lambda'$, but instead of this point +we take the point opposite when $\lambda'$~is more than~$90°$ from~$L$. In the first case, we +regard the element at~$\lambda$ as positive, and in the other as negative. Finally, let $\L$ be +the point on the auxiliary sphere, which is $90°$~from both $\lambda$~and~$\lambda'$, and which is so +taken that $\lambda$,~$\lambda'$,~$\L$ lie in the same order as $(1)$,~$(2)$,~$(3)$. + +The coordinates of the four points of the auxiliary sphere, referred to its centre, +are for +\begin{alignat*}{4} +&L\qquad &&X\quad &&Y\quad &&Z \\ +&\lambda &&\xi &&\eta &&\zeta \\ +&\lambda'&&\xi' &&\eta' &&\zeta' \\ +&\L &&\alpha &&\beta &&\gamma. +\end{alignat*} +Hence each of these $4$~points describes a line upon the auxiliary sphere, whose elements +we shall express by $dL$,~$d\lambda$,~$d\lambda'$,~$d\L$. We have, therefore, +\begin{align*} +d\xi &= \xi'\, d\lambda, \\ +d\eta &= \eta'\, d\lambda, \\ +d\zeta &= \zeta'\, d\lambda. +\end{align*} +In an analogous way we now call +\[ +\frac{d\lambda}{ds} +\] +the measure of curvature of the curved line upon the curved surface, and its reciprocal +\[ +\frac{ds}{d\lambda} +\] +the radius of curvature. If we denote the latter by~$\rho$, then +\begin{align*} +\rho\, d\xi &= \xi'\, ds, \\ +\rho\, d\eta &= \eta'\, ds, \\ +\rho\, d\zeta &= \zeta'\, ds. +\end{align*} + +If, therefore, our line be a shortest line, $\xi'$,~$\eta'$,~$\zeta'$ must be proportional to the +quantities $X$,~$Y$,~$Z$. But, since at the same time +\[ +\xi'^{2} + \eta'^{2} + \zeta'^{2} = X^{2} + Y^{2} + Z^{2} = 1, +\] +we have +\[ +\xi' = ±X,\quad +\eta' = ±Y,\quad +\zeta' = ±Z, +\] +and since, further, +\begin{align*} +\xi'X + \eta'Y + \zeta'Z + &= \cos \lambda'L \\ + &= ±(X^{2} + Y^{2} + Z^{2}) \\ + &= ±1, +\end{align*} +\PageSep{100} +and since we always choose the point~$\lambda'$ so that +\[ +\lambda'L < 90°, +\] +then for the shortest line +\[ +\lambda'L = 0, +\] +or $\lambda'$~and~$L$ must coincide. Therefore +\begin{align*} +\rho\, d\xi &= X\, ds, \\ +\rho\, d\eta &= Y\, ds, \\ +\rho\, d\zeta &= Z\, ds, +\end{align*} +and we have here, instead of $4$~curved lines upon the auxiliary sphere, only $3$~to consider. +Every element of the second line is therefore to be regarded as lying in the +great circle~$L\lambda$. And the positive or negative value of~$\rho$ refers to the concavity +or the convexity of the curve in the direction of the normal. + + +\Article{14.} + +We shall now investigate the spherical angle upon the auxiliary sphere, which +the great circle going from~$L$ toward~$\lambda$ makes with that one going from~$L$ toward +one of the fixed points $(1)$,~$(2)$,~$(3)$; \eg, toward~$(3)$. In order to have something +definite here, we shall consider the sense from~$L(3)$ to~$L\lambda$ the same as that in which +$(1)$,~$(2)$, and~$(3)$ lie.

INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the +trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone +providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance +with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production, +promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works, +harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees, +that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do +or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm +work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any +Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause. + + +Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm + +Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of +electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers +including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists +because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from +people in all walks of life. + +Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the +assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's +goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will +remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive +Foundation + +The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit +501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the +state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal +Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification +number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at +http://pglaf.org/fundraising. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent +permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws. + +The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S. +Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered +throughout numerous locations. Its business office is located at +809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email +business@pglaf.org. Email contact links and up to date contact +information can be found at the Foundation's web site and official +page at http://pglaf.org + +For additional contact information: + Dr. Gregory B. Newby + Chief Executive and Director + gbnewby@pglaf.org + + +Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + http://www.gutenberg.net + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. +\end{PGtext} + +% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % +% % +% End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of General Investigations of Curved % +% Surfaces of 1827 and 1825, by Karl Friedrich Gauss % +% % +% *** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK INVESTIGATIONS OF CURVED SURFACES *** +% % +% ***** This file should be named 36856-tex.tex or 36856-tex.zip ***** % +% This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: % +% http://www.gutenberg.org/3/6/8/5/36856/ % +% % +% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % + +\end{document} +### +@ControlwordReplace = ( + ['\\Introduction', 'Introduction'], + ['\\Contents', 'Contents'], + ['\\Notes', 'Notes'], + ['\\BibliographyPage', 'Bibliography'], + ['\\end{Theorem}', ''], + ['\\end{Bibliography}', ''], + ['\\tb', '-----'], + ['\\ie', 'i.e.'], + ['\\eg', 'e.g.'], + ['\\Cf', 'Cf.'], + ['\\QEA', 'Q.E.A.'] + ); + +@ControlwordArguments = ( + ['\\setlength', 1, 0, '', '', 1, 0, '', ''], + ['\\SetRunningHeads', 1, 0, '', '', 1, 0, '', ''], + ['\\BookMark', 1, 0, '', '', 1, 0, '', ''], + ['\\Article', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\Par', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\Abstract', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\ToCLine', 1, 1, '', '', 1, 0, '', ''], + ['\\Signature', 1, 1, '', ' ', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\Publication', 1, 1, '', ' ', 1, 1, '', ' ', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\Author', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\Title', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\LineRef', 0, 0, '', '', 1, 0, '', '', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\LineRefs', 1, 1, '', ''], + ['\\Art', 1, 1, 'Art.
