Isometric deformations of pseudoholomorphic curves in the nearly Kähler sphere S^6
This paper considers so-called pseudoholomorphic curves in the nearly Kähler six-sphere \(\mathbb{S}^6\). The notion of pseudoholomorphic curves in \(\mathbb{S}^6\) was introduced by [\textit{R. L. Bryant}, J. Differ. Geom. 17, 185--232 (1982; Zbl 0526.53055)] as nonconstant smooth maps from a Riemannian surface into the nearly Kähler six-sphere, whose differential is complex linear with respect to the almost complex structure of \(\mathbb{S}^6\) that is induced by means of vector cross-products from the Cayley algebra. The aim of the paper is to solve the problem of classification of noncongruent minimal surfaces in spheres that are isometric to a given pseudoholomorphic curve in the nearly Kähler six-sphere. We mark out the following important results: Theorem 1. Let \(g:M\rightarrow \mathbb{S}^5\) be a compact pseudoholomorphic curve. If \(M\) is not homeomorphic to the torus, then the moduli space of all noncongruent substantial minimal surfaces in \(\mathbb{S}^n, 4 \leq n \leq 7\), that are isometric to \(g\) is empty, unless \(n = 5\) in which case the moduli space is a finite set. Theorem 2. Let \(g:M\rightarrow \mathbb{S}^6\) be a pseudoholomorphic curve. The moduli space of all noncongruent minimal surfaces \(f:M\rightarrow \mathbb{S}^6\) that are isometric to \(g\) and have the same normal curvatures with \(g\), is either a circle or a finite set. Theorem 3. Let \(f:M\rightarrow \mathbb{S}^n\) be a compact substantial minimal surface. If \(f\) is isometric to an isotropic pseudoholomorphic curve \(g:M\rightarrow \mathbb{S}^6\), then \(n = 6\) and \(f\) is congruent to \(g\). In addition, the author proves an analogue to the classical Schur theorem for minimal surfaces in spheres.
