Mean curvature of Sphere

Posted 10 years ago
POSTED BY: Ali Noroozi

If I read the mean curvature formula H(A) correctly then you mistreated it; there is z=f(u,v) and f is a scalar function, not a vector function as you specified. I remark this because you use the exponent 3/2 in the denominator which is correct for the special case z = f(u,v) only. In general the definition is

H[A] := 1/2  ((L G - 2 M F + N E)/(E G - F^2))
