Lawson's genus two surface and meromorphic connections (Q358827)

In [Commun. Anal. Geom. 6, No. 4, 633--668 (1998; Zbl 0932.58018)], \textit{J. Dorfmeister} et al. introduced a general method, currently known as the DPW method, which determines classes of surfaces with special features (minimal surfaces, surfaces of constant mean curvature, Willmore surfaces, surfaces of constant Gaussian curvature) by means of loop groups. In this paper, the author shows how the DPW method can be applied to the case of the Lawson surface (doubly periodic surface with genus two) and proves the existence of a globally defined DPW potential whose behavior on the surface is completely described. The freedom of the potential is given by two unknown functions depending only on the spectral parameter.
