Abstract

This paper focuses on the study of quadric surfaces in 3-dimensional Euclidean space that are of finite II-type, a concept introduced by B.-Y. Chen regarding the 2nd fundamental form II. It was shown that the only ones of the class of quadrics in 3-space according to the definition of finite Chen type are the spheres.

Keywords
