Most proofs for the classical Gauss-Bonnet formula use special coordinates, or other non-trivial preparations. Here, a simple proof is given, based on the fact that the structure group SO(2) of the tangent bundle of an oriented 2-dimensional Riemannian manifold is abelian. Since only this hypothesis is used, we prove a slightly more general result (Theorem 1).

In this paper we consider parallel translation surfaces, which are generated by spacelike curves, according to Bishop frame with timelike M1 in Minkowski 3- space. Then, we obtain some characterizations of these surface.

Iterative patterns can be described by the component pattern of iteration and their way of connection for iteration. It is shown that the shape of the component pattern can be a rectangle for any iterative pattern, which is called a tile. The tile is related to the basis of the parallel translation group of the iterative pattern. The component pattern itself is identified by a "tessera" which is defined by a non-degenerate colored tile. The tessera is a compact representation of iterative patterns. Some natures of tesseras and tiles are also discussed. The number of the kinds of distinct iterative patterns for each way of iteration is evaluated.
