Minimal surfaces in a complex hyperquadric \(Q _{2}\) (Q1942242): Difference between revisions

In the paper, \(Q_2 = \mathrm{SO}(4)/\mathrm{SO}(2)\times \mathrm{SO}(2)\) denotes a hyperquadric in \({\mathbb CP^3}\). Minimal surfaces in \(Q_2\) are studied. The main results state that (1) a minimal surface in \(Q_2\) with constant Kähler angle is either holomorphic, or anti-holomorphic, or totally real (Theorem 3.1) and (2) a conformally embedded minimal sphere \(S^2\subset Q_2\) is totally geodesic provided that it has either constant sectional curvature or parallel second fundamental form (Theorem 4.1).
