Dynamics and the Godbillon-Vey Class of C^1 Foliations

Steven Hurder, Rémi Langevin

Let F be a codimension-one, C^2-foliation on a manifold M without boundary. In this work we show that if the Godbillon--Vey class GV(F) \in H^3(M) is non-zero, then F has a hyperbo…

The geometry of canal surfaces and the length of curves in de Sitter space

Rémi Langevin, Gil Solanes

We find the minimal value of the length in de Sitter space of closed space-like curves with non-vanishing non-space-like geodesic curvature vector. These curves are in corresponden…

Space of subspheres and conformal invariants of curves

R. Langevin, J. O'Hara, S. Sakata

A space curve is determined by conformal arc-length, conformal curvature, and conformal torsion, up to Möbius transformations. We use the spaces of osculating circles and spheres t…

Dynamical behavior of Darboux curves

Ronaldo Garcia, Remi Langevin, Pawel Walczak

In 1872 G. Darboux defined a family of curves on surfaces of R^3 which are preserved by the action of the Mobius group and share many properties with geodesics. Here we characteriz…

Conformal invariance of the writhe of a knot

R. Langevin, J. O'Hara

We give a new proof of an old theorem by Banchoff and White 1975 that claims that the writhe of a knot is conformally invariant.

Conformal arc-length as dimensional length of the set of osculating circles

Rémi Langevin, Jun O'Hara

The set of osculating circles of a given curve in $\SS^3$ forms a curve in the set of oriented circles in $\SS^3$. We show that its "-dimensional measure" with respect t…
