| May 6, 2023 at 15:10 | comment | added | Agelos | @LeoMoos: Yes, the reference is J. Douglas, SOLUTION OF THE PROBLEM OF PLATEAU. The second sentence reads "This memoir presents the first solution of this problem for the most general kind of contour: an arbitrary Jordan curve in n-dimensional euclidean space. " I'm removing the confusing reference to Rado in the question, as Rado assumed rectifiability. | |
| May 5, 2023 at 18:48 | comment | added | Leo Moos | @Agelos Are you sure that the Plateau problem is well-defined if you do not assume any sort of regularity of the curves, not even rectifiability? | |
| Apr 26, 2023 at 6:39 | comment | added | Daniel Asimov | That is not a useful reference, since it does not provide the exact statement of the theorem. | |
