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.

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.

Abstract It is proved that every minimal surface with one or two boundary components in a simply connected Riemannian manifold with sectional curvature bounded above by a nonpositive constant K satisfies the sharp isoperimetric inequality 4π A ≦ L2 + K A2. Here equality holds if and only if the minimal surface is a geodesic disk in a surface of constant Gaussian curvature K.

A description of string model of gauge theory are related to minimal surfaces. notations of minimal surface and related mean and Gauss curvature discussed. The Weierstrass representation for a surface conformally which immersed in R used to represent Nambu- Goto action, action of Nambu Goto is calculated usingWeierstrass representation which can be used to calculate the Partion Function and potential, then a non-perturbative solution for action is aimed and fulfilled and a consequences of that are investigated and its mathematical and physical properties are discussed.

Abstract The Bergman method of solving boundary-value problems by means of particular solutions of the differential equation, which are constructed without reference to the boundary conditions, is applied to the problem of stability of thin elastic plates of an arbitrary simply connected shape and subject to any admissible boundary conditions. A direct method is presented for the construction of particular solutions that is applicable to both anisotropic and isotropic plates. Previous results of M. Z. Krzywoblocki for isotropic plates are obtained in a simple manner.

For a nilpotent group $G$, let $\Xi(G)$ be the difference between the complement of the generating graph of $G$ and the commuting graph of $G$, with vertices corresponding to central elements of $G$ removed. That is, $\Xi(G)$ has vertex set $G \setminus Z(G)$, with two vertices adjacent if and only if they do not commute and do not generate $G$. Additionally, let $\Xi^+(G)$ be the subgraph of $\Xi(G)$ induced by its non-isolated vertices. We show that if $\Xi(G)$ has an edge, then $\Xi^+(G)$ is connected with diameter $2$ or $3$, with $\Xi(G) = \Xi^+(G)$ in the diameter $3$ case. In the infinite case, our results apply more generally, to any group with every maximal subgroup normal. When $G$ is finite, we explore the relationship between the structures of $G$ and $\Xi(G)$ in more detail.

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).

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.
