We investigate the vertex curve, that is the set of points in the hyperbolic region of a smooth surface in real 3-space at which there is a circle in the tangent plane having at least 5-point contact with the surface. The vertex curve is related to the differential geometry of planar sections of the surface parallel to and close to the tangent planes, and to the symmetry sets of isophote curves, that is level sets of intensity in a 2-dimensional image. We investigate also the relationship of the vertex curve with the parabolic and flecnodal curves, and the evolution of the vertex curve in a generic 1-parameter family of smooth surfaces.

In the search for appropriate discretizations of surface theory it is crucial to preserve such fundamental properties of surfaces as their invariance with respect to transformation groups. We discuss discretizations based on Mobius invariant building blocks such as circles and spheres. Concrete problems considered in these lectures include the Willmore energy as well as conformal and curvature line parametrizations of surfaces. In particular we discuss geometric properties of a recently found discrete Willmore energy. The convergence to the smooth Willmore functional is shown for special refinements of triangulations originating from a curvature line parametrization of a surface. Further we treat special classes of discrete surfaces such as isothermic and minimal. The construction of these surfaces is based on the theory of circle patterns, in particular on their variational description.

We characterize singularities of focal surfaces of wave fronts in terms of differential geometric properties of the initial wave fronts. Moreover, we study relationships between geometric properties of focal surfaces and geometric invariants of the initial wave fronts.
The main result of this paper is a discrete Lawson correspondence between discrete CMC surfaces in R^3 and discrete minimal surfaces in S^3. This is a correspondence between two discrete isothermic surfaces. We show that this correspondence is an iso metry in the following sense: it preserves the metric coefficients introduced previously by Bobenko and Suris for isothermic nets. Exactly as in the smooth case, this is a correspondence between nets with the same Lax matrices, and the immersion formulas also coincide with the smooth case.
The main purpose of this paper is calculation of differential invariants which arise from prolonged actions of two Lie groups SL(2) and SL(3) on the $n$th jet space of $R^2$. It is necessary to calculate $n$th prolonged infenitesimal generators of the action.
We prove a version of the strong half-space theorem between the classes of recurrent minimal surfaces and complete minimal surfaces with bounded curvature of $mathbb{R}^{3}_{raisepunct{.}}$ We also show that any minimal hypersurface immersed with bou nded curvature in $Mtimes R_+$ equals some $Mtimes {s}$ provided $M$ is a complete, recurrent $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with $text{Ric}_M geq 0$ and whose sectional curvatures are bounded from above. For $H$-surfaces we prove that a stochastically complete surface $M$ can not be in the mean convex side of a $H$-surface $N$ embedded in $R^3$ with bounded curvature if $sup vert H_{_M}vert < H$, or ${rm dist}(M,N)=0$ when $sup vert H_{_M}vert = H$. Finally, a maximum principle at infinity is shown assuming $M$ has non-empty boundary.
