چکیده

where B0 is the trace free part of the second fundamental form of X. It was introduced by Willmore in a slightly different but equivalent form for surfaces in E. The functional is invariant under conformal transformation, and it is natural to extend it for submanifolds in conformal N -sphere S = E ∪ {∞}. Willmore conjecture asks if Clifford torus in S is the unique minimizer of W(X) among all immersed tori. Li and Yau introduced the notion of conformal area of a compact Riemann surface, and showed that Willmore conjecture is true if the induced complex(conformal) structure

Willmore Surfaces of R 4 and the Whitney Sphere ?

We make a contribution to the study of Willmore surfaces in four-dimensional Euclidean space R4 by making use of the identification of R4 with two-dimensional complex Euclidean space C2. We prove that the Whitney sphere is the only Willmore Lagrangian surface of genus zero in R4 and establish some existence and uniqueness results about Willmore Lagrangian tori in R4 ≡ C2. Mathematics Subject Cl...

Adjoint Transform of Willmore Surfaces in n-sphere

After the surface theory of Möbius geometry, this study concerns a pair of conformally immersed surfaces in n-sphere. Two new invariants θ and ρ associated with them are introduced as well as the notion of touch and co-touch. This approach is helpful in research about transforms of certain surface classes. As an application, we define adjoint transform for any given Willmore surface in n-sphere...

Willmore Two-spheres in the Four-sphere

Genus zero Willmore surfaces immersed in the three-sphere S3 correspond via the stereographic projection to minimal surfaces in Euclidean three-space with finite total curvature and embedded planar ends. The critical values of the Willmore functional are 4πk, where k ∈ N∗, with k 6= 2, 3, 5, 7. When the ambient space is the four-sphere S4, the regular homotopy class of immersions of the two-sph...

Willmore Surfaces of Constant Möbius Curvature

We study Willmore surfaces of constant Möbius curvature K in S. It is proved that such a surface in S must be part of a minimal surface in R or the Clifford torus. Another result in this paper is that an isotropic surface (hence also Willmore) in S of constant K could only be part of a complex curve in C ∼= R or the Veronese 2-sphere in S. It is conjectured that they are the only examples possi...
