Book Description:
|
Begins with the classical theory of minimal surfaces and ends up with current research topics. Of the various ways of approaching minimal surfaces (from complex analysis, PDE, or geometric measure theory), the authors have chosen to focus on the PDE aspects of the theory. It also contains some of the applications of minimal surfaces to other fields including low dimensional topology, general relativity, and materials science.
