AbstractWe study non-totally geodesic Lagrangian submanifolds of the nearly Kähler 𝕊3 × 𝕊3 for which the projection on the first component is nowhere of maximal rank. We show that this property can be expressed in terms of the so-called angle functions and that such Lagrangian submanifolds are closely related to minimal surfaces in 𝕊3. Indeed, starting from an arbitrary minimal surface, we can construct locally a large family of such Lagrangian immersions, including one exceptional example. We also show that locally all such Lagrangian submanifolds can be obtained in this way.

H-umbilicity was introduced as an analogue of total umbilicity for Lagrangian submanifolds since, in some relevant cases, totally umbilical Lagrangian submanifolds are automatically totally geodesic. In this paper, we show that, in the homogeneous nearly Kähler S3×S3, also H-umbilical Lagrangian submanifolds are automatically totally geodesic.

AbstractRecently I. Castro and F.Urbano introduced the Lagrangian catenoid. Topologically, it is ℝ × Sn–1 and its induced metric is conformally flat, but not cylindrical. Their result is that if a Lagrangian minimal submanifold in ℂn is foliated by round (n – 1)-spheres, it is congruent to a Lagrangian catenoid. Here we study the question of conformally flat, minimal, Lagrangian submanifolds in ℂn. The general problem is formidable, but we first show that such a submanifold resembles a Lagrangian catenoid in that its Schouten tensor has an eigenvalue of multiplicity one. Then, restricting to the case of at most two eigenvalues, we show that the submanifold is either flat and totally geodesic or is homothetic to (a piece of) the Lagrangian catenoid.

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.

AbstractJ-holomorphic curves in nearly Kähler $$\mathbb {CP}^3$$ CP 3 are related to minimal surfaces in $$S^4$$ S 4 as well as associative submanifolds in $$\Lambda ^2_-(S^4)$$ Λ - 2 ( S 4 ) . We introduce the class of transverse J-holomorphic curves and establish a Bonnet-type theorem for them. We classify flat tori in $$S^4$$ S 4 and construct moment-type maps from $$\mathbb {CP}^3$$ CP 3 to relate them to the theory of $$\mathrm {U}(1)$$ U ( 1 ) -invariant minimal surfaces on $$S^4$$ S 4 .

The First Variation

This paper presents a numerical method for finding the solution of Plateau's problem in parametric form. Using the properties of minimal surfaces we succeded in transferring the problem of finding the minimal surface to a problem of minimizing a functional over a class of scalar functions. A numerical method of minimizing a functional using the first variation is presented and convergence is proven. A numerical example is given.

In a previous paper (6) we have studied those minimal surfaces which admit geodesic mappings without isometries or similarities on another, not necessarily minimal, surface. Here we determine all pairs of minimal surfaces which can be geodesically mapped on each other. We find that two such surfaces are either: (i) similar Bonnet associates of each other, or (ii) both Poisson surfaces (that is, isometric to a plane), or (iii) both Scherk surfaces (2).

The space S L ( 2 , R ) × S L ( 2 , R ) admits a natural homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian nearly Kähler structure. We investigate almost complex surfaces in this space. In particular, we obtain a complete classification of the totally geodesic almost complex surfaces and of the almost complex surfaces with parallel second fundamental form.

AbstractAn R-space is a compact homogeneous space obtained as an orbit of the isotropy representation of a Riemannian symmetric space. It is known that each R-space has the canonical embedding into a Kähler C-space as a real form, and thus a compact embedded totally geodesic Lagrangian submanifold. The minimal Maslov number of Lagrangian submanifolds in symplectic manifolds is one of invariants under Hamiltonian isotopies and very fundamental to study the Floer homology for intersections of Lagrangian submanifolds. In this paper we show a Lie theoretic formula for the minimal Maslov number of R-spaces canonically embedded in Einstein-Kähler C-spaces, and provide some examples of the calculation by the formula.

AbstractIn this paper we prove that a complete, embedded minimal surface M in {\mathbb{R}^{3}} with finite topology and compact boundary (possibly empty) is conformally a compact Riemann surface {\overline{M}} with boundary punctured in a finite number of interior points and that M can be represented in terms of meromorphic data on its conformal completion {\overline{M}}. In particular, we demonstrate that M is a minimal surface of finite type and describe how this property permits a classification of the asymptotic behavior of M.

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.
