Minimal surface

Complex surfaces 2: Minimal surfaces

This talk is part of a series about complex surfaces, and explains what minimal surfaces are. A minimial surfaces is one that cannot be obtained by blowing up a nonsingular surfaces at a point. We explain why every surface is birational to a minimal nonsingular projective surface. We disc

Minimal Surfaces—The Shapes That Help Us Understand Black Holes

In this video I talk about minimal surfaces and how you can do your own experiment to prove if something is a minimal surface. I talk about why minimal surfaces are important in math and physics and show you some neat experiments to make several minimal surfaces at home The STL file for t

L. Mazet - Some aspects of minimal surface theory (Part 1)

In a Riemannian 3-manifold, minimal surfaces are critical points of the area functional and can be a useful tool to understand the geometry and the topology of the ambient manifold. The aim of these lectures is to give some basic definitions about minimal surface theory and present some re

L. Mazet - Minimal hypersurfaces of least area

In this talk, I will present a joint work with H. Rosenberg where we give a characterization of the minimal hypersurface of least area in any Riemannian manifold. As a consequence, we give a lower bound for the area of a minimal surface in a hyperbolic 3-manifold.
