Abstract: In this paper we prove a theorem concerning lamination limits of sequences of compact disks $M_n$ embedded in $mathbb{R}^3$ with constant mean curvature $H_n$, when the boundaries of these disks tend to infinity. This theorem generalizes to the non-zero constant mean curvature case Theorem 0.1 by Colding and Minicozzi in [8]. We apply this theorem to prove the existence of a chord arc result for compact disks embedded in $mathbb{R}^3$ with constant mean curvature; this chord arc result generalizes Theorem 0.5 by Colding and Minicozzi in [9] for minimal disks.

Review text

From the summary: We describe the lamination limits of sequences of compact disks \(M_n\) embedded in \(\mathbb{R}^3\) with constant mean curvature \(H_n\), when the boundaries of these disks tend to infinity. This theorem generalizes to the non-zero constant mean curvature case Theorem 0.1 by \textit{T. H. Colding} and \textit{W. P. Minicozzi II} [Ann. Math. (2) 160, No. 2, 573--615 (2004; Zbl 1076.53069)] for minimal disks. We apply this theorem to prove the existence of a chord arc result for compact disks embedded in \(\mathbb{R}^3\) with constant mean curvature; this chord arc result generalizes Theorem 0.5 by \textit{T. H. Colding} and \textit{W. P. Minicozzi} [Ann. Math. (2) 167, No. 1, 211--243 (2008; Zbl 1142.53012)] for minimal disks.
