Gauss-Bonnet theorem
(Carl Friedrich Gauss and Pierre Ossian Bonnet) Given a two-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold
with boundary,Gaussian curvature of points and geodesic curvature of points on the boundary , it is thecase that
where is the Euler characteristic of the manifold
, denotes the measure with respect to area, and denotes the measure with respect to arclength on the boundary. This theorem expresses a topological invariant
interms of geometrical information.
