Abstract: We prove that a minimal disc in a CAT(0) space is a local embedding away from a finite set of "branch points". On the way we establish several basic properties of minimal surfaces: monotonicity of area densities, density bounds, limit theorems and the existence of tangent maps. As an application, we prove Fary-Milnor's theorem in the CAT(0) setting.
In this work the author proves that a minimal disc in a \(\mathrm{CAT}(0)\) space is a local embedding away from a finite set of ``branch points. On the way he establishes several basic properties of minimal surfaces: monotonicity of area densities, density bounds, limit theorems and the existence of tangent maps. As an application, he proves the Fáry-Milnor's theorem in the \(\mathrm{CAT}(0)\) setting.
