Embeddedness of proper minimal submanifolds in homogeneous spaces
Abstract
We prove the three embeddedness results as follows. Let be a piecewise geodesic Jordan curve with vertices in , where is an integer . Then the total curvature of . In particular, the total curvature of and thus any minimal surface bounded by is embedded. Let be a piecewise geodesic Jordan curve with vertices in . Then any minimal surface bounded by is embedded. If is in a geodesic ball of radius in , then is also embedded. As a consequence, is an unknot in , and . Let be an -dimensional proper minimal submanifold in with the ideal boundary in the infinite sphere . If the M{\"o}bius volume of , then is embedded. If , then is embedded unless it is a cone. Let be a proper minimal surface in . If is vertically regular at infinity and has two ends, then is embedded.
