The theory of generalized Cauchy–Riemann systems with a point of singularity of the 1-st order in coefficients, that is an immedate extension of the classical apparatus of the Vekua theory of generalized analytic functions, was developed. On this basis local and global problems in the theory of deformation of surfaces with a flat point as well as their local rigidity and non-rigidity were investigated. Together with the disciples theories of generalized Cauchy–Riemann systems with a point singularity of order greater than one in coefficients (with H. Najmiddinov) and with the 1-st order singularity on a circle (with A. Abdushukurov) were worked out. A certain progress was attained in solution of the extended Christoffel problem in searching convex surfaces with a given sum of conventional radii of curvature determined in a convex surface with an isolated flat point (with A. Khakimov). For an extensive class of processes described by linear and partial differential equations natural metrics similar to the Minkowskii space-time one were constructed. In particular, it enabled to create the natural metrics of the gravitational field, processes of string oscillation, heat conductivity and extension, and some others.
