On skew loops, skew branes and quadratic hypersurfaces
S. L. Tabachnikov Department of Mathematics, Pennsylvania State University
Abstract:
A skew brane is an immersed codimension 2 submanifold in affine space, free from pairs of parallel tangent spaces. Using Morse theory, we prove that a skew brane cannot lie on a quadratic hypersurface. We also prove that there are no skew loops on embedded ruled developable discs in 3-space.
Key words and phrases:
Skew loops and skew branes, quadratic hypersurfaces, double normals, Morse theory, developable surfaces.
