Abstract

Abstract Methods to estimate surface areas of geometric objects in 3D are well known. A number of these methods are of Monte Carlo type, and some are based on the Cauchy–Crofton formula from integral geometry. Employing this formula requires the generation of sets of random lines that are uniformly distributed in 3D. One model to generate sets of random lines that are uniformly distributed in 3D is called the tangent model (see [4]). In this paper, we present an extension of this model to higher dimensions, and we examine its performance by estimating hypersurface areas of n-ellipsoids. Then we apply this method to estimate surface areas of hypersurfaces defined by Fermat-type varieties of even degree.
