    In the first part of this paper [the authors together with \textit{I. Sterling}, Invent. Math. 82, 447-460 (1985; Zbl 0578.53042)] the authors showed the existence of (infinitely many) minimal immersions of the exotic Kervaire spheres \(\Sigma_ 0^{4n+3}\) for \(k\leq 100\). Here they extend the result to arbitrary k, and give a computer-free proof.
