On the existence of a balanced vertex in geodesic nets with three boundary vertices
摘要
Geodesic nets are types of graphs in Riemannian manifolds where each edge is a geodesic segment. One important object used in the construction of geodesic nets is a balanced vertex, where the sum of unit tangent vectors along adjacent edges is zero. We prove the existence of a balanced vertex of a triangle (with three unbalanced vertices) on a general two-dimensional Riemannian surface when all angles measure less than
