Abstract
It is well known that every quasi-Fuchsian manifold admits at least one closed incompressible minimal surface, and at most finitely many of them. In this paper, for any prescribed integer , we construct a quasi-Fuchsian manifold which contains at least such minimal surfaces. As a consequence, there exists some simple close Jordan curve on such that there are at least disk-type complete minimal surface in sharing this Jordan curve as the asymptotic boundary.
