Abstract

Assume that XX is a connected, open, oriented smooth surface, BB is a compact Euclidean neighbourhood retract, and J={Jb}bB\mathscr{J}=\{J_b\}_{b\in B} is a continuous family of complex structures on XX of local H\"older class Cα\mathscr{C}^\alpha for some 0<α<10<\alpha<1. We construct a continuous family of JbJ_b-conformal minimal immersions ub:XR3u_b:X\to \mathbb{R}^3, bBb\in B, properly projecting to R2\mathbb{R}^2 and having an arbitrary given family of flux homomorphisms Fluxub:H1(X,Z)R3{\rm Flux}_{u_b}:H_1(X,\mathbb{Z})\to\mathbb{R}^3. In particular, there are continuous families of proper JbJ_b-holomorphic null immersions XC3X\to \mathbb{C}^3 and of proper JbJ_b-holomorphic immersions XC2X\to\mathbb{C}^2, bBb\in B.
