After successful completion of the course, students are able to... recognize and understand the concept of "integrable discretization", its relation to transformation and their permutability and are able to realize and apply this concept in a variety of classes of curves or surfaces.
Darboux-Baecklund type transformations, permutability and integrable discretization.
Lectures, discussion of the concept in examples and presentations given by students, based on research papers
This unit may serve as a preparation for a BSc or MSc thesis
Presentation, short report (TeX, 2-3 pages)
Students are expected to be familiar with the concepts of (classical) differential geometry.
