The value distribution of the hyperbolic Gauss map
The classical Bernstein theorem states that the only entire minimal graphs in Euclidean space \(\mathbb{R}^3\) are the planes. Motivated by this celebrated result, \textit{R. Osserman} [Comment. Math. Helv. 35, 65-76 (1961; Zbl 0098.34904)] studied the image of the Gauss map of minimal surfaces, showing that the Gauss image of a non-flat complete minimal surface in \(\mathbb{R}^3\) cannot omit a set of positive logarithmic capacity. In 1989, \textit{H. Fujimoto} [J. Differ. Geom. 29, 245-262 (1989; Zbl 0676.53005)] stated the best result on the value distribution of the Gauss map of minimal surfaces, proving that the Gauss map of a non-flat complete minimal surface in \(\mathbb{R}^3\) can omit at most four points. In the paper under review, the author considers the analogue problem for surfaces in hyperbolic space \(H^3\) with constant mean curvature one. These surfaces share many properties with minimal surfaces in \(\mathbb{R}^3\). Actually, the author shows that the hyperbolic Gauss map of a non-flat complete surface in \(H^3\) with constant mean curvature one can omit at most four points. As the author remarks, this result is sharp since there exist examples of complete surfaces in \(H^3\) with constant mean curvature one whose hyperbolic Gauss map omits \(k\) points, \(k=0, 1, 2, 3, 4\). The proof of the theorem uses as a key tool Bryant's representation formula in terms of holmorphic data for these surfaces [\textit{R. Bryant}, Astérisque 154-155, 321-347 (1987; Zbl 0635.53047)].
