CMC proper-biharmonic surfaces of constant Gaussian curvature in spheres

Differential Geometry 2014-05-29 v2

Abstract

CMC surfaces in spheres are investigated under the extra condition of biharmonicity. From the work of Miyata, especially in the flat case, we give a complete description of such immersions and show that for any h(0,1)h\in (0,1) there exist CMC proper-biharmonic planes and cylinders in \sn5\sn^5 with H=h|H|=h, while a necessary and sufficient condition on hh is found for the existence of CMC proper-biharmonic tori in \sn5\sn^5.
