Constructions of minimal periodic surfaces and minimal annuli in Sol3
arXiv:1311.5004 · doi:10.2140/pjm.2015.276.143
Abstract
We construct two one-parameter families of minimal properly embedded surfaces in the Lie group Sol3 using a Weierstrass-type representation. These surfaces are not invariant by a one-parameter group of ambient isometries. The first one can be viewed as a family of helicoids, and the second one is a family of minimal annuli called catenoids. Finally we study limits of these catenoids, and in particular we show that one of these limits is a new minimal entire graph.
