4 3. The Gauss-Bonnet formula (global version) Polygonal division of closed surfaces. (The Gauss-Bonnet formula) (3.1) KdA =2πχ(M 2 ), M 2 where χ(m 2 )=V E + F is the Euler number of the surface M 2.
4. Parallel surfaces 5 An immersion f = f(u, v) :(U; u, v) R 3 (U R 2 ), the unit normal vector ν(u, v) := f u(u, v) f v (u, v) f u (u, v) f v (u, v). For each real number t, f t (u, v) =f(u, v)+tν(u, v) is called a parallel surface of f. p is a singular pt of f t (f t ) u (p) (f t ) v (p) =0. Figure 2. a cuspidal edge and a swallowtail Cuspidal edges and swallowtails are generic singular points appeared on parallel surfaces. f C =(u 2,u 3,v), f S =(3u 4 + u 2 v, 4u 3 +2uv, v).

Figure 6. a( )-cuspidal edge and a (+)-cuspidal edge the singular curvature κ s (s) =ε(s)(geodesic curvature) = ε(s) det(ν(s),γ (s),γ (s)), where ε(s) = 1 (if the surface is bounded by a plane at γ(s)), 1 (otherwise).

13 10. Singularities of Gauss maps M 2 :an oriented compact manifold f : M 2 R 3 an immersion Singular points of ν : M 2 S 2 K f =0. Then f t = 1 (f + tν), t R. t lim t f t = ν, 2deg(ν) =χ(m t +) χ(m t )+#SW t + #SW t. In particular, Hence, 2deg(ν) =χ(m 2 )=χ(m t +)+χ(m t ). 2χ(M t )=#SW t + #SW t. Taking the limit t,wehavethat 2χ(M )=#SW + #SW.
14 The Gauss map ν satisfies 2χ(M )=#SW + #SW. If t, then the cuspidal edge collapses to a fold, and a swallowtail collapses to a cusp. In particular, #SW+ := #{(+)-cusps of ν}, #SW := #{( )-cusps of ν}. Since dâν = K f da f, da ν = K f da f, it holds that M = {p M 2 ; K f (p) < 0}. Thus (the Bleecker and Wilson formula [1]) 2χ({K f < 0}) = #positive cusps #negative cusps.

16 11. A similar application The following identity holds for f t : M 2 R 3 K t da t +2 κ s ds =2πχ(M 2 ). M 2 \Σ ft Σ ft Taking t, we have that (Saji-Yamada-U. [10]) 1 K f da f = κ s ds, 2π {K<0} Σ ν where To prove the formula, we apply κ s := the singular curvature of ν = ±the geodesic curvature of ν > 0 if ν points Im(ν), < 0 otherwise. K ν dâν = KdA ν, K ν A ν = K f da f.
17 The intrinsic formulation of wave fronts (Saji-Yamada-U. [10]) The definition (E,,,D,ϕ) of coherent tangent bundle on M n : (1) E is a vector bundle of rank n over M n, (2) E has a inner product,, (3) D is a metric connection of (E,, ), (4) ϕ: TM n E is a bundle homomorphism s.t. D X ϕ(y ) D Y ϕ(x) =ϕ([x, Y ]), where X, Y are vector fields on M n. The pull-back of the metric, ds 2 ϕ := ϕ, is called the first fundamental form of ϕ. p M n ; ϕ-singular point Ker(ϕ p : T p M n E p ) {0}. coherent tangent bundle = generalized Riemannian manifold When (M n,g) is a Riemannian manifold, then E = TM n,, := g, D = g, ϕ =id. If f : M 2 R 3 is a wave front, then E = ν,, := g R 3, D = T, ϕ = df, (ψ = dν).
