About a family of deformations of the Costa-Hoffman-Meeks surfaces

From MaRDI portal





C. Costa described a genus one minimal surface with two ends asymptotic to the two ends of catenoid and a middle end asymptotic to a plane. D. Hoffman and W. H. Meeks generalized the Costa surface for higher genus, these surfaces are denoted by \(M_k\). For each \(k\leq 1M_k\) is a properly embedded minimal surface and has three ends of finite total curvature. In the paper the existence of a family of minimal surfaces obtained by deformations of the \(M_k\) is shown. These surfaces are obtained varying the logarithmic growths of the ends and the directions of the axes of revolutions of the catenoidal ends of \(M_k\).
