Affine Differential Geometry

In affine differential geometry a main point of research is the investigation of special models of surfaces in three dimensional affine space.



Surface of revolution
Algebraic affine surface of revolution with vanishing affine Gauss-Kronecker curvature.

Affine surfaces or revolution are characterised by affine surface normals intersecting a straight line.

Within this class of surfaces one can figure out those having additional properties, as e. g. flat affine metric, or vanishing (constant) affine mean curvature or affine Gauss curvature.
