On solutions to the exterior Dirichlet problem for the minimal surface with catenoidal ends (Q2443308)

From the authors' abstract: In this paper we investigate the Dirichlet problem for the minimal surface equation on certain nonconvex domains of the plane. (\dots) Our main result concerns the Dirichlet problem on exterior domains. (\dots) We investigate the space of solutions further and show that, unless it is empty, it contains a maximal and a minimal solution if the boundary data is rectifiable. (\dots) We moreover give an example where the maximal and the minimal solutions coincide, so that there is exactly one with given normal at infinity.
