The Weierstrass-Enneper Representation using hodographic coordinates on a minimal surface
Rukmini Dey
In this paper we obtain the general solution to the minimal surface equation, namely its local Weierstrass-Enneper representation, by using a system of hodographic coordinates. Thi…

A variational proof for the existence of a conformal metric with preassigned negative Gaussian curvature for compact Riemann surfaces of genus
Rukmini Dey
Given an smooth function we prove a result by Berger, Kazhdan and others that in every conformal class there exists a metric which attains this function as its Gaussian curv…
