Remarkable Theorem

英语百科

Theorema Egregium

A consequence of the Theorema Egregium is that the Earth cannot be displayed on a map without distortion.  The Mercator projection, shown here, preserves angles but fails to preserve area.
Animation showing the deformation of a helicoid into a catenoid.  The deformation is accomplished by bending without stretching. During the process, the Gaussian curvature of the surface at each point remains constant.

Gauss's Theorema Egregium (Latin for "Remarkable Theorem") is a foundational result in differential geometry proved by Carl Friedrich Gauss that concerns the curvature of surfaces. The theorem says that the Gaussian curvature of a surface does not change if one bends the surface without stretching it. In other words, Gaussian curvature can be determined entirely by measuring angles, distances and their rates on the surface itself, without further reference to the particular way in which the surface is embedded in the ambient 3-dimensional Euclidean space. Thus the Gaussian curvature is an intrinsic invariant of a surface.
