Abstract

We prove that in the class C 1,β with β<1/13 it is possible to continuously deform an analytic convex surface of positive Gaussian curvature (or a plane) so as to lose boundedness of the extrinsic curvature in the Pogorelov sense. We demonstrate how to replace the bound β<1/13 with β<1/7.
