title: Dupin's theorem
text: In differential geometry Dupin's theorem, named after the French mathematician Charles Dupin, is the statement: The intersection curve of any pair of surfaces of different pencils of a threefold orthogonal system is a curvature line. A threefold orthogonal system of surfaces consists of three pencils of surfaces such that any pair of surfaces out of different pencils intersect orthogonally. The most simple example of a threefold orthogonal system consists of the coordinate planes and their paral
