Abstract

The Lawson surfaces ξ1,g\xi_{1,g} of genus gg are constructed by rotating and reflecting the Plateau solution ftf_t with respect to a particular geodesic 44-gon Γt\Gamma_t along its boundary, where t=12g+2t= \tfrac{1}{2g+2} is an angle of Γt\Gamma_t. In this paper we combine the existence and regularity of the Plateau solution ftf_t in t(0,14)t \in (0, \tfrac{1}{4}) with topological information about the moduli space of Fuchsian systems on the 4-puncture sphere to obtain existence of a Fuchsian DPW potential ηt\eta_t for every ftf_t with t(0,14]t\in(0, \tfrac{1}{4}]. Moreover, the coefficients of ηt\eta_t are shown to depend real analytically on tt. This implies that the Taylor approximation of the DPW potential ηt\eta_t and of the area obtained at t=0t=0 found in \cite{HHT2} determines these quantities for all ξ1,g\xi_{1,g}. In particular, this leads to an algorithm to conformally parametrize all Lawson surfaces ξ1,g\xi_{1,g}.
