Nonorientable Minimal Surfaces Embedded in the Round -sphere
Mikhail Karpukhin, Robert Kusner, Peter McGrath +1
We show that every closed, nonorientable surface can be minimally embedded in , providing in particular the first known examples of embedded, nonorientable minimal su…

Large topology asymptotics for spectrally extremal minimal surfaces in and
Mikhail Karpukhin, Peter McGrath, Daniel Stern
In recent work with Kusner, we developed a method, based on the equivariant optimization of Laplace and Steklov eigenvalues, for producing minimal surfaces of prescribed topology i…

Embedded minimal surfaces in and via equivariant eigenvalue optimization
Mikhail Karpukhin, Robert Kusner, Peter McGrath +1
In 1970, Lawson solved the topological realization problem for minimal surfaces in the sphere, showing that any closed orientable surface can be minimally embedded in $\mathbb{S}^3…
