Equiareal

Equiareal

Let M,N be surfaces in the Euclidean space mathbb{R}^3. A smooth map f:M ightarrow N is called equiareal if

:|df_p(v) imes df_p(w)|=|v imes w|,

for all pin M and v,win T_pM, where the latter denotes the tangent space to M.

For some examples of such maps see map projection.For the case "M" = "N" = R x R, see equi-areal mapping.
