| Dec 25, 2010 at 0:08 | comment | added | Ian Agol | There's a remarkable correspondence between cmc surfaces in $R^3$ and minimal surfaces in $S^3$, due to Lawson. However, it only holds locally (or for simply-connected immersed surfaces), so usually doesn't give much information on embedded CMC surfaces in $R^3$, even though many embedded minimal surfaces in $S^3$ are known. ams.org/mathscinet-getitem?mr=270280 | |
