Which properties preserve by isometry?

I know that an isometry between two surfaces preserves the 1st fundamental coefficients, geodesic curvature, and Gaussian curvature.



I wonder that how about the curvature and torsion of a curve on the surface, and 2nd fundamental coefficients?



I can’t find any counterexample and prove this question



Give some advice or comments! Thank you!

    The Second Fundamental Form (for example) depends on the embedding of a surface in some higher-dimensional Riemannian space, so it doesn't make sense to ask whether an isometry of surfaces (which makes no reference to embeddings) preserves it. Do you mean perhaps an isometry of some higher-dimensional spaces and the isometry from an embedded surface onto its image?

    Alright, I've written an answer that assumes you mean an isometry between surfaces, both of which are embedded in $Bbb R^3$.

Hint Consider an isometry from a subset of a plane in $Bbb R^3$ to a subset of a cylinder in $Bbb R^3$.

  • Consider the A4 paper and drawing a diagonal line on the paper. Then, both of the curvature and torsion of the diagonal line is zero in A4 paper. But, they are non-zero in cylinder in $mathbb{R}^{3}$ if we bend the A4 paper into cylinder. Right?

  • It depends on how the paper is bent, but if either of the side pairs are parallel to the axis of the cylinder, for example, then the curve will have nonzero curvature and torsion. (In fact, in this particular example both will be constant.)
