Abstract
The width, diameter, the circumradius and other similar invariants known as radii are classical fimctionals which play an important role in convexity theory and in many other applications. In this chapter we study such parameters in the cases of our surfaces. We will see that the usual planar techniques for computing those invariants are not valid in this case and that new methods must be considered.
