Nonrigidity of a class of two dimensional surfaces with positive curvature and planar points

Existence of nontrivial infinitesimal bendings is established for an orientable surface with boundary S\subset \mathbb{R}^3. As an application, we show that any neighborhood of such a surface S topology) contains isometric surfaces that are noncongruent.
