AbstractA systematic analysis of a family of triply periodic minimal surfaces of genus seven and trigonal symmetry is given. The family is found to contain five such surfaces free from self-intersections, three of which are previously unknown. Exact parametrisations of all surfaces are provided using the Weierstrass representation.

In this paper, we introduce the fourth fundamental forms for hypersurfaces in Hn+1 and space-like hypersurfaces in S1n+1, and discuss the conformality of the normal Gauss map of the hypersurfaces in Hn+1 and S1n+1. Particularly, we discuss the surfaces with conformal normal Gauss map in H³ and S³1, and prove a duality property. We give a Weierstrass representation formula for space-like surfaces in S³1 with conformal normal Gauss map. We also state the similar results for time-like surfaces in S³1. Some examples of surfaces in S³1 with conformal normal Gauss map are given and a fully nonlinear equation of Monge-Ampère type for the graphs in S³1 with conformal normal Gauss map is derived.

AbstractGiven a smooth minimal surface F: Ω → ℝ3 defined on a simply connected region Ω in the complex plane ℂ, there is a regular SG circle pattern . By the Weierstrass representation of F and the existence theorem of SG circle patterns, there exists an associated SG circle pattern in ℂ with the combinatoric of . Based on the relationship between the circle pattern and the corresponding discrete minimal surface F∊: → ℝ3 defined on the vertex set of the graph of , we show that there exists a family of discrete minimal surface Γ∊: → ℝ3, which converges in C∞(Ω) to the minimal surface F: Ω → ℝ3 as ∊ → 0.
