Higher genus Riemann minimal surfaces

چکیده
Even though the classification of genus zero, embedded minimal surfaces is not complete, W. H. Meeks J. Perez and A. Ros [14], [15], [16] have made progress concerning the question of the uniqueness of the Riemann examples in the class of genus zero embedded minimal surfaces which have an infinite number of ends. They conjecture in [15] that every embedded minimal surface of finite genus and with infinite number of ends is asymptotic (away from a compact piece) to some ”middle” planar end and to two halves of Riemann example which are referred to as ”limit ends”.

Minimal Surfaces of Least Total Curvature and Moduli Spaces of Plane Polygonal Arcs
Introduction. The rst major goal of this paper is to prove the existence of complete minimal surfaces of each genus p > 1 which minimize the total curvature (equivalently, the degree of the Gau map) for their genus. The genus zero version of these surfaces is known as Enneper's surface (see [Oss2]) and the genus one version is due to Chen-Gackstatter ([CG]). Recently, experimental evidence for ...
متن کاملIsometry Groups of Compact Riemann Surfaces
We explore the structure of compact Riemann surfaces by studying their isometry groups. First we give two constructions due to Accola [1] showing that for all g ≥ 2, there are Riemann surfaces of genus g that admit isometry groups of at least some minimal size. Then we prove a theorem of Hurwitz giving an upper bound on the size of any isometry group acting on any Riemann surface of genus g ≥ 2...
متن کاملUniqueness of the Riemann minimal examples
We prove that a properly embedded minimal surface in R of genus zero with in®nite symmetry group is a plane, a catenoid, a helicoid or a Riemann minimal example. We introduce the language of Hurwitz schemes to understand the underlying moduli space of surfaces in our setting.
متن کامل2 8 N ov 2 00 3 On the number of extremal surfaces
Let X be a compact Riemann surface of genus ≥ 2 of constant negative curvature −1. An extremal disk is an embedded (resp. covering) disk of maximal (resp. minimal) radius. A surface containing an extremal disk is an extremal surface. This paper gives formulas enumerating extremal surfaces of genus ≥ 4 up to isometry. We show also that the isometry group of an extremal surface is always cyclic o...
متن کاملHigher Genus Superstring Amplitudes From the Geometry of Moduli Space
We show that the higher genus 4-point superstring amplitude is strongly constrained by the geometry of moduli space of Riemann surfaces. A detailed analysis leads to a natural proposal which satisfies several conditions. The result is based on the recently derived Siegel induced metric on the moduli space of Riemann surfaces and on combinatorial products of determinants of holomorphic abelian d...
