The aim of this paper was to obtain Gauss–Bonnet theorems on the Lorentzian Heisenberg group and the Lorentzian group of rigid motions of the Minkowski plane. At the same time, the sub-Lorentzian limits of Gaussian curvature for surfaces which are C2-smooth in the Lorentzian Heisenberg group away from characteristic points and signed geodesic curvature for curves which are C2-smooth on surfaces are studied. Using a similar method, we also studied the corresponding contents on Lorentzian group of rigid motions of the Minkowski plane.

The group of rigid motions of the Minkowski plane with a general left-invariant metric is denoted by E 1 , 1 , g λ 1 , λ 2 , where λ 1 ≥ λ 2 > 0 . It provides a natural 2 -parametric deformation family of the Riemannian homogeneous manifold Sol 3 = E 1 , 1 , g 1 , 1 which is the model space to solve geometry in the eight model geometries of Thurston. In this paper, we compute the sub-Riemannian limits of the Gaussian curvature for a Euclidean C 2 -smooth surface in E 1 , 1 , g L λ 1 , λ 2 away from characteristic points and signed geodesic curvature for the Euclidean C 2 -smooth curves on surfaces. Based on these results, we get a Gauss-Bonnet theorem in the group of rigid motions of the Minkowski plane with a general left-invariant metric.

AbstractThis paper is a preliminary work on Heisenberg group domains, devoted to the study of the Green’s function for the Kohn Laplacian on domains far away from the set of characteristic points. We give some estimates of the Green’s function, its regular part and their derivatives analogous to those proved by A. Bahri, Y.Y. Li, O. Rey in [1], and O. Rey in [16] for Euclidean domains. While the study of such functions on the set of characteristic points of the given domain will be discussed in a forthcoming paper.

The rototranslation group ℛ T is the group comprising rotations and translations of the Euclidean plane which is a 3-dimensional Lie group. In this paper, we use the Riemannian approximation scheme to compute sub-Riemannian limits of the Gaussian curvature for a Euclidean C 2 -smooth surface in the rototranslation group away from characteristic points and signed geodesic curvature for Euclidean C 2 -smooth curves on surfaces. Based on these results, we obtain a Gauss–Bonnet theorem in the rototranslation group.

Abstract In this short note, we consider piece-wise smooth strictly convex curves in {\mathbb{R}^{2}} with prescribed singular angles. Given some geodesic curvature bounds, we give the sharp length estimates.

AbstractBy studying the group of rigid motions, PSH(1), in the 3D-Heisenberg group H1,we define a density and a measure in the set of horizontal lines. We show that the volume of a convex domain D ⊂ H1 is equal to the integral of the length of chords of all horizontal lines intersecting D. As in classical integral geometry, we also define the kinematic density for PSH(1) and show that the measure of all segments with length l intersecting a convex domain D ⊂ H1 can be represented by the p-area of the boundary ∂D, the volume of D, and 2l. Both results show the relationship between geometric probability and the natural geometric quantity in [10] derived by using variational methods. The probability that a line segment be contained in a convex domain is obtained as an application of our results.

In the present paper, we study helicoidal surfaces in the 3-dimensional Heisenberg group Nil3. Also, we construct helicoidal surfaces in Nil3 with prescribed Gaussian curvature or mean curvature given by smooth functions. As the results, we classify helicoidal surfaces with constant Gaussian curvature or constant mean curvature.

In this paper, we study biharmonic curves accordig to Sabban frame in the Heisenberg group Heis³. We characterize the biharmonic curves in terms of their geodesic curvature and we prove that all of  biharmonic curves are helices in the Heisenberg group Heis³. Finally, we find out their explicit parametric equations according to Sabban Frame.

Abstract We address the problem of integrability of the sub-Riemannian mean curvature of an embedded hypersurface around isolated characteristic points. The main contribution of this paper is the introduction of a concept of a mildly degenerate characteristic point for a smooth surface of the Heisenberg group, in a neighborhood of which the sub-Riemannian mean curvature is integrable (with respect to the perimeter measure induced by the Euclidean structure). As a consequence, we partially answer to a question posed by Danielli, Garofalo and Nhieu in [D. Danielli, N. Garofalo and D. M. Nhieu, Integrability of the sub-Riemannian mean curvature of surfaces in the Heisenberg group, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 140 2012, 3, 811–821], proving that the mean curvature of a real-analytic surface with discrete characteristic set is locally integrable.
