To her, the Frenet–Serret frame—the tangent (T), the normal (N), the binormal (B)—wasn’t abstract math. It was the grammar of existence. A curve’s curvature (\kappa) measured how hard it turned; its torsion (\tau) measured how hard it twisted out of the plane. Pressley’s proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Space Curves had hit her like scripture: Given (\kappa(s)>0) and (\tau(s)), there exists a unique curve up to rigid motion.

She closed the PDF. Elementary Differential Geometry by Andrew Pressley. The cover was a green torus. She had read it so many times the spine of the digital file was worn out in her mind. But tonight, she realized the book wasn’t about curves or surfaces. It was about the fact that curvature is local, but connection—affine connection, the rule for how vectors change as you move—that is global. Pressley’s proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Space
