Constant mean curvature surfaces with boundary

Constant mean curvature surfaces in Sol with non-empty boundary

In homogenous space Sol we study compact surfaces with constant mean curvature and with non-empty boundary. We ask how the geometry of the boundary curve imposes restrictions over all possible configurations that the surface can adopt. We obtain a flux formula and we establish results that assert that, under some restrictions, the symmetry of the boundary is inherited into the surface. MSC: 53A10

Constant mean curvature surfaces with boundary on a sphere

In this article we study the shape of a compact surface of constant mean curvature of Euclidean space whose boundary is contained in a round sphere. We consider the case that the boundary is prescribed or that the surface meets the sphere with a constant angle. We study under what geometric conditions the surface must be spherical. Our results apply in many scenarios in physics where in absence...

New Constant Mean Curvature Surfaces

We use the DPW construction [5] to present three new classes of immersed CMC cylinders, each of which includes surfaces with umbilics. The first class consists of cylinders with one end asymptotic to a Delaunay surface. The second class presents surfaces with a closed planar geodesic. In the third class each surface has a closed curve of points with a common tangent plane. An appendix, by the t...

Coplanar Constant Mean Curvature Surfaces

We consider constant mean curvature surfaces with finite topology, properly embedded in three-space in the sense of Alexandrov. Such surfaces with three ends and genus zero were constructed and completely classified by the authors [GKS2, GKS1]. Here we extend the arguments to the case of an arbitrary number of ends, under the assumption that the asymptotic axes of the ends lie in a common plane...
