  • Curvature — In mathematics, curvature refers to any of a number of loosely related concepts in different areas of geometry. Intuitively, curvature is the amount by which a geometric object deviates from being flat, or straight in the case of a line, but this …   Wikipedia

  • Curvature of Riemannian manifolds — In mathematics, specifically differential geometry, the infinitesimal geometry of Riemannian manifolds with dimension at least 3 is too complicated to be described by a single number at a given point. Riemann introduced an abstract and rigorous… …   Wikipedia

  • Gaussian curvature — In differential geometry, the Gaussian curvature or Gauss curvature of a point on a surface is the product of the principal curvatures, κ 1 and κ 2, of the given point. It is an intrinsic measure of curvature, i.e., its value depends only on how… …   Wikipedia

  • Ricci curvature — In differential geometry, the Ricci curvature tensor, named after Gregorio Ricci Curbastro, provides one way of measuring the degree to which the geometry determined by a given Riemannian metric might differ from that of ordinary Euclidean n… …   Wikipedia

  • Affine curvature — This article is about the curvature of affine plane curves, not to be confused with the curvature of an affine connection. Special affine curvature, also known as the equi affine curvature or affine curvature, is a particular type of curvature… …   Wikipedia

  • Radius of curvature (optics) — Radius of curvature has specific meaning and sign convention in optical design. A spherical lens or mirror surface has a center of curvature located in (x, y, z) either along or decentered from the system local optical axis. The vertex… …   Wikipedia

  • Scalar curvature — In Riemannian geometry, the scalar curvature (or Ricci scalar) is the simplest curvature invariant of a Riemannian manifold. To each point on a Riemannian manifold, it assigns a single real number determined by the intrinsic geometry of the… …   Wikipedia

  • Principal curvature — Saddle surface with normal planes in directions of principal curvatures In differential geometry, the two principal curvatures at a given point of a surface are the eigenvalues of the shape operator at the point. They measure how the surface… …   Wikipedia

  • Riemann curvature tensor — In the mathematical field of differential geometry, the Riemann curvature tensor or Riemann–Christoffel tensor is the most standard way to express curvature of Riemannian manifolds. It is one of many things named after Bernhard Riemann and Elwin… …   Wikipedia

  • Constant curvature — See also: Space form In mathematics, constant curvature in differential geometry is a concept most commonly applied to surfaces. For those the scalar curvature is a single number determining the local geometry, and its constancy has the obvious… …   Wikipedia

  • Total curvature — In mathematical study of the differential geometry of curves, the total curvature of a plane curve is the integral of curvature along a curve taken with respect to arclength::int a^b k(s),ds.The total curvature of a closed curve is always an… …   Wikipedia
