摘要:
A minimal immersion of a closed surface in a 3-manifold of constant curvature gives rise to a complex structure and a second fundamental form. A compatibility condition between these two data leads to study a nonlinear problem with exponential nonlinearity on the two-dimensional surface. During this talk we will present some existence and uniqueness of the solutions for those types of equations.
