    Assume that \(N\) is a complete, simply-connected surface of constant curvature \(\kappa\leq 0\). Suppose that \(\Omega\) and \(\tilde \Omega\) are domains in \(N\) with smooth boundary and let \(f\) be a diffeomorphism from \(\Omega\) to \(\tilde \Omega\). We call \(f\) a minimal Lagrangian diffeomorphism if the following conditions are satisfied: (1) \(f\) is area-preserving; (2) \(f\) is orientation-preserving; (3) The graph of \(f\) is a minimal submanifold of \(N\times N\). The main result is the following Theorem 1.3. Let \(\Omega\) and \(\tilde \Omega\) be strictly convex domains in \(N\) with smooth boundary. Assume that \(\Omega\) and \(\tilde \Omega\) have the same area. Given any point \(\overline{p}\in\partial\Omega\) and any point \(\overline{q}\in\partial\tilde{\Omega}\), there exists a unique minimal Lagrangian diffeomorphism from \(\Omega\) to \(\tilde{\Omega}\) that maps \(\overline{p}\) to \(\overline{q}\). For the case of \(\kappa=0\), \textit{P. Delanoë} has given a similar result, see [Ann. Inst. Henri Poincaré, Anal. Non Linéaire 8, No.~5, 443--457 (1991; Zbl 0778.35037)].
