Stationary surfaces with boundaries

This article investigates stationary surfaces with boundaries, which arise as the critical points of functionals dependent on curvature. Precisely, a generalized “bending energy” functional…
On the Bj\"orling problem for Willmore surfaces
- Mathematics
- 2014
We solve the analogue of Bj\"orling's problem for Willmore surfaces via a harmonic map representation. For the umbilic-free case the problem and solution are as follows: given a real analytic curve…
Gap phenomena for a class of fourth-order geometric differential operators on surfaces with boundary

Abstract. In this paper we establish a gap phenomenon for immersed surfaces with arbitrary codimension, topology and boundaries that satisfy one of a family of systems of fourth-order anisotropic…
