AbstractWe describe the construction of CMC surfaces with symmetries in $\mathbb {S}^{3}$ S 3 and $\mathbb {R}^{3}$ ℝ 3 using a CMC quadrilateral in a fundamental tetrahedron of a tessellation of the space. The fundamental piece is constructed by the generalized Weierstrass representation using a geometric flow on the space of potentials.

AbstractThe generalized Weierstrass representation is used to analyze the asymptotic behavior of a constant mean curvature surface that arises locally from an ordinary differential equation (ODE) with a regular singularity. We prove that a holomorphic perturbation of an ODE that represents a Delaunay surface generates a constant mean curvature surface which has a properly immersed end that is asymptotically Delaunay. Furthermore, that end is embedded if the Delaunay surface is unduloidal.

In this work we deal with surfaces immersed in R³ with constant mean curvature and circular boundary. We improve some global estimates for area and volume of such immersions obtained by other authors. We still establish the uniqueness of the spherical cap in some classes of cmc surfaces.

AbstractWe study singularities of spacelike, constant (non-zero) mean curvature (CMC) surfaces in the Lorentz–Minkowski 3-space L3. We show how to solve the singular Björling problem for such surfaces, which is stated as follows: given a real analytic null-curve f0(x), and a real analytic null vector field v(x) parallel to the tangent field of f0, find a conformally parameterized (generalized) CMC H surface in L3 which contains this curve as a singular set and such that the partial derivatives fx and fy are given by df0/dx and v along the curve. Within the class of generalized surfaces considered, the solution is unique and we give a formula for the generalized Weierstrass data for this surface. This gives a framework for studying the singularities of non-maximal CMC surfaces in L3. We use this to find the Björling data – and holomorphic potentials – which characterize cuspidal edge, swallowtail and cuspidal cross cap singularities.

In this paper graphical presentation some of the constant mean curvature surfaces (CMC surfaces) is given. This work is an extension of the results [3]. Interesting shapes and complicate structures of CMC surfaces obtained using Mathematica computer program are given.
