| Sep 29, 2011 at 7:25 | comment | added | Jean-Marc Schlenker | I'm pretty sure there is such a formula. If the 2d case is as you say, it should follow that the Weingarten operator is $B^{-1}=\pm Hess(h)+hI$, and it should be possible to prove this by considering what happens in 2-planes containing the eigenvalues of the shape operator. | |
