摘要
In this note, we give a short survey on the global isometric embedding of surfaces (2-dimensional Riemannian manifolds) in R-3. We will present associated partial differential equations for the isometric embedding and discuss their solvability. We will illustrate the important role of Gauss curvature in solving these equations.
