Variational principles for minimal surfaces
From MaRDI portal
In [Plateau's problem and the calculus of variations, Mathematical Notes, 35. Princeton, Univ. Press (1988; Zbl 0694.49028)] the second named author shows that minimal surfaces bounded by a given closed curve in \(\mathbb{R}^n\) can be characterized as critical values of an energy functional on a set of variations of a given surface. In the present paper the set of variations is replaced by a subset of 3-point-normalized surfaces, i.e. where three points on the boundary are fixed. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0903.00112].
