Narasimham, I did not see this equation here on first read. I see from the sketch that Del Z an arc on the sphere is about 1/3 the arc of Del R the arc on the pseudosphere. It was my fault, Narasimham that I was wavering over what I wanted and involved area, when the question I seek does not need area at all. I was troubled with finding a precision clear "question to pose" and was distracted into thinking that area was involved. My question should have been this -- How much of the arclength on a pseudosphere coincides in curvature with a arclength segment on a great-circle where the radius of pseudosphere and sphere are identical? So, Narasimham, how much of Del R can be fitted onto the sphere's great-circle? Can all of that Del R arc be equal to a great-circle in curvature? > > > > It is not difficult to derive these as the areas are part of surfaces > > of revolution. > > > > in case of sphere/pseudosphere of radius / pseudoradius a, > > > > full rotated Areas are = 2 pi a delZ and 2 pi a delR respectively. > > > > If the polar angle difference is same and equal to delTheta, > > > > Area/a = delTheta * delZ = delTheta * delR is the condition for equal > > area mapping. > > > > Hope this helps you to determine what or how much to "Roll" in each > > case for each equal area differential shell > > > > surface elements. > > > > Narasimham I could still ask for an area with a "roll" function involved. So how much of Del R has the identical curvature of the sphere, and then to roll the sphere at that identical-arc-site on the pseudosphere, roll it around the pseudosphere spine and to obtain the area involved. Of course, I would have to multiply by 2 because of the southern hemisphere of the pseudosphere. Narasimham, is the maximum equal-curvature of sphere with pseudosphere that of 36 degrees arc? Your sketch seems to suggest it is larger than 36 degrees arc. P.S. of course, the answer could be 0 arc on the sphere is identical to the curvature of any and all arcs on the pseudosphere.

There are two curvatures, k1 meridional and k2 circumferential. Gauss curvature K = k1*k2. If you are referring to k1 alone alone, it does not give full picture. Never mind the lone curvature. My sketch does not give zones where radii are equal. The sketch is drawn to scale. You can see that There are two curvatures k1 meridional and k2 circumferential. Gauss curvature K = k1*k2. The radius has decreased and width has increased keeping area same while the segment is going to a pseudospherical one from spherical surface. Exact dimensions are given below: Sphere meridian end points (z, r ) for shaded area are start ( 0.4, 0.916515 ) ; end ( 0.6, 0.8 ) Arc length of meridian = 0.231984 Area = 2 pi 1 0.2 (del Z)= 1.25664 Pseudosphere meridian end points (z, r ) for shaded area are start ( 0.650284, 0.4) ; end ( 1.31264, 0.2 ) Arc length of meridian = 0.693147, about thrice that of sphere. Area = 2 pi 1 0.2 (del R) = 1.25664 > So, Narasimham, how much of Del R can be fitted onto the sphere's > great-circle? > Can all of that Del R arc be equal to a great-circle in curvature? Cut up sphere meridian into 10 approximate conical sectors and again circumferentially take 3 cuts on all the segments. Now cut the, pseudosphere also into 30 conical sectors on meridian. These represent differential areas, they can be matched in area by placing them side by side. Never mind about the curvature that way. In Bending, it is the lengths and angles between lines on surface which remain constant. Also curvature of lines in tangent plane known as geodesic curvature is invariant. These are creatures of the first fundamental form of surface theory in classical differential geometry.A study of the same by you , known as Isometry or in other words compound Bending will be useful. It is possible to apply one surface of constant K onto another, without tearing or crumpling up. Gauss Egregium theorem states that K = k1 * k2 is constant in such cases. But not a wholesale switch from +1 to -1 is permitted in isometry. Isometry( preserving angles,lengths ) and equal area mappings are two different and distict things, not to be confused but regarded as different. If area is changed as a rubber sheet, then the Gauss-Bonnet theorem gives what the restrictions are.... > > > It is not difficult to derive these as the areas are part of surfaces > > > of revolution. > > > > in case of sphere/pseudosphere of radius / pseudoradius a, > > > > full rotated Areas are = 2 pi a delZ and 2 pi a delR respectively. > > > > If the polar angle difference is same and equal to delTheta, > > > > Area/a = delTheta * delZ = delTheta * delR is the condition for equal > > > area mapping. > > > > Hope this helps you to determine what or how much to "Roll" in each > > > case for each equal area differential shell > > > > surface elements. > > > > Narasimham > > I could still ask for an area with a "roll" function involved.
