Minimal surfaces in differential geometry, surfaces with prescribed mean curvature (53A10) Differential geometry of immersions (minimal, prescribed curvature, tight, etc.) (53C42) Manifolds of mappings (58D15) Variational problems concerning minimal surfaces (problems in two independent variables) (58E12) Harmonic maps, etc. (58E20)
We prove the compactness of the space of compact volume-preserving stable surfaces with genus \(g\geq 2\) immersed in quotients of \(\mathbb{R}^3\) by discrete subgroups of translations. The main tool in the proof is a compactness result for harmonic maps due to \textit{J. Sacks} and \textit{K. Uhlenbeck} [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 271, 639-652 (1982; Zbl 0527.58008)] which can be applied to the harmonic Gauss maps of the immersions. Our results allow us to describe the isoperimetric domains in \(\mathbb{T}^2 \times \mathbb{R}\), where \(\mathbb{T}^2\) is a flat two-dimensional torus with injectivity radius equal to 1 and large area.
