Moutard hyperquadrics and generalized Darboux directions

Abstract

The higher order contact of a quadric with a surface in 3-space at a non-degenerate point is obtained by the Moutard quadric in the Darboux direction. In this paper, we discuss the extension of this result to hypersurfaces in arbitrary dimensions.
