A conjugate net on a surface $F$ and its deformation $F^*$ outside their points of congruence. The base of a deformation is characterized by the fact that the bend — the relation between the normal curvatures $k$ and $k^*$ at isometrically-corresponding points of $F$ and $F^*$ along corresponding directions — has extremal values along the directions of the base of the deformation.
