Morse-Rad\'o Theory for Minimal Surfaces

Differential Geometry 2023-06-22 v4

Abstract

For a class of functions (called minimal Rad\'o functions) that arise naturally in minimal surface theory, we bound the number of interior critical points (counting multiplicity) in terms of the boundary data and the Euler characteristic of the domain of the function.
