Monochromatic Finsler surfaces and a local ellipsoid characterization

Sergei Ivanov

英文摘要:

We prove the following localized version of a classical ellipsoid characterization: Let $B\subset\mathbb R^3$ be convex body with a smooth strictly convex boundary and 0 in the interior, and suppose that there is an open set of planes through 0 such that all sections of $B$ by these planes are linearly equivalent. Then all these sections are ellipses and the corresponding part of $B$ is a part of an ellipsoid. We apply this to differential geometry of Finsler surfaces in normed spaces and show that in certain cases the intrinsic metric of a surface imposes restrictions on its extrinsic geometry similar to implications of Gauss' Theorema Egregium. As a corollary we construct 2-dimensional Finsler metrics that do not admit local isometric embeddings to dimension~3.
