This book features plane curves—the simplest objects in differential geometry—to illustrate many deep and inspiring results in the field in an elementary and accessible way. After an introduction to the basic properties of plane curves, the authors introduce a number of complex and beautiful topics, including the rotation number (with a proof of the fundamental theorem of algebra), rotation index, Jordan curve theorem, isoperimetric inequality, convex curves, curves of constant width, and the four-vertex theorem. The last chapter connects the classical with the modern by giving an introduction to the curve-shortening flow that is based on original articles but requires a minimum of previous knowledge. Over 200 figures and more than 100 exercises illustrate the beauty of plane curves and test the reader's skills. Prerequisites are courses in standard one variable calculus and analytic geometry on the plane.

Excerpt from The Elementary Differential Geometry of Plane Curves This tract is intended to present a precise account of the elementary differential properties of plane curves. The matter contained is in no sense new, but a suitable connected treatment in the English language has not been available. As a result, a number of interesting misconceptions are current in English text books. It is sufficient to mention two somewhat striking examples, (a) According to the ordinary definition of an envelope, as the locus of the limits of points of intersection of neighbouring curves, a curve is not the envelope of its circles of curvature, for neighbouring circles of curvature do not intersect. (b) The definitions of an asymptote - (1) a straight line, the distance from which of a point on the curve tends to zero as the point tends to infinity; (2) the limit of a tangent to the curve, whose point of contact tends to infinity - are not equivalent. The curve may have an asymptote according to the former definition, and the tangent may exist at every point, but have no limit as its point of contact tends to infinity. The subjects dealt with, and the general method of treatment, are similar to those of the usual chapters on geometry in any Cours d' Analyse, except that in general plane curves alone are considered. At the same time extensions to three dimensions are made in a somewhat arbitrary selection of places, where the extension is immediate, and forms a natural commentary on the two dimensional work, or presents special points of interest (Frenet's formulae). To make such extensions systematically would make the tract too long. The subject matter being wholly classical, no attempt has been made to give full references to sources of information; the reader however is referred at most stages to the analogous treatment of the subject in the Cours or Traite d' Analyse of de la Vallée Poussin, Goursat, Jordan or Picard, works to which the author is much indebted.

From the PREFACE. THIS tract is intended to present a precise account of the elementary differential properties of plane curves. The matter contained is in no sense new, but a suitable connected treatment in the English language has not been available. As a result, a number of interesting misconceptions are current in English text books. It is sufficient to mention two somewhat striking examples, (a) According to the ordinary definition of an envelope, as the locus of the limits of points of intersection of neighbouring curves, a curve is not the envelope of its circles of curvature, for neighbouring circles of curvature do not intersect. (b) The definitions of an asymptote-(1) a straight line, the distance from which of a point on the curve tends to zero as the point tends to infinity; (2) the limit of a tangent to the curve, whose point of contact tends to infinity-are not equivalent. The curve may have an asymptote according to the former definition, and the tangent may exist at every point, but have no limit as its point of contact tends to infinity. The subjects dealt with, and the general method of treatment, are similar to those of the usual chapters on geometry in any Cours d'Analyse, except that in general plane curves alone are considered. At the same time extensions to three dimensions are made in a somewhat arbitrary selection of places, where the extension is immediate, and forms a natural commentary on the two dimensional work, or presents special points of interest (Frenet's formulae). To make such extensions systematically would make the tract too long. The subject matter being wholly classical, no attempt has been made to give full references to sources of information; the reader however is referred at most stages to the analogous treatment of the subject in the Cours or Traite d'Analyse of de la Vallee Poussin, Goursat, Jordan or Picard, works to which the author is much indebted. In general the functions, which define the curves under consideration, are (as usual) assumed to have as many continuous differential coefficients as may be mentioned. In places, however, more particularly at the beginning, this rule is deliberately departed from, and the greatest generality is sought for in the enunciation of any theorem. The determination of the necessary and sufficient conditions for the truth of any theorem is then the primary consideration. In the proofs of the elementary theorems, where this procedure is adopted, it is believed that this treatment will be found little more laborious than any rigorous treatment, and that it provides a connecting link between Analysis and more complicated geometrical theorems, in which insistence on the precise necessary conditions becomes tedious and out of place, and suitable sufficient conditions can always be tacitly assumed. At an earlier stage the more precise formulation of conditions may be regarded as (1) an important grounding for the student of Geometry, and (2) useful practice for the student of Analysis. The introductory chapter is a collection of somewhat disconnected theorems which are required for reference. The reader can omit it, and to refer to it as it becomes necessary for the understanding of later chapters....

Excerpt from The Elementary Differential Geometry of Plane Curves A limited selection of examples is given at the ends of the chapters. Besides their more Obvious function, these are intended to provide a summary of some of the more important extensions of the theorems proved in the text. References or sketches of a proof are therefore given in such cases, which should enable the reader to complete the proofs.

The Second Edition combines a traditional approach with the symbolic manipulation abilities of Mathematica to explain and develop the classical theory of curves and surfaces. You will learn to reproduce and study interesting curves and surfaces - many more than are included in typical texts - using computer methods. By plotting geometric objects and studying the printed result, teachers and students can understand concepts geometrically and see the effect of changes in parameters. Modern Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces with Mathematica explains how to define and compute standard geometric functions, for example the curvature of curves, and presents a dialect of Mathematica for constructing new curves and surfaces from old. The book also explores how to apply techniques from analysis. Although the book makes extensive use of Mathematica, readers without access to that program can perform the calculations in the text by hand. While single- and multi-variable calculus, some linear algebra, and a few concepts of point set topology are needed to understand the theory, no computer or Mathematica skills are required to understand the concepts presented in the text. In fact, it serves as an excellent introduction to Mathematica, and includes fully documented programs written for use with Mathematica. Ideal for both classroom use and self-study, Modern Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces with Mathematica has been tested extensively in the classroom and used in professional short courses throughout the world.
