Abstract

We prove some non-existence results for the asymptotic Plateau problem of minimal and area minimizing surfaces in the homogeneous space SL~2(R){\widetilde{\mathrm{SL}}_2(\mathbb{R})} with isometry group of dimension 4, in terms of their asymptotic boundary. Also, we show that a properly immersed minimal surface in SL~2(R){\widetilde{\mathrm{SL}}_2(\mathbb{R})} contained between two bounded entire minimal graphs separated by vertical distance less than 1+4τ2π\sqrt{1+4\tau^2}\pi have multigraphical ends. Finally, we construct simply connected minimal surfaces with finite total curvature which are not graphs and a family of complete embedded minimal surfaces which are non-proper in SL~2(R){\widetilde{\mathrm{SL}}_2(\mathbb{R})}.
