The $1$-parametric $h$-principle for smooth conformal immersions of surfaces

Differential Geometry 2026-03-04 v1

Abstract

We reformulate the problem of finding conformal immersions of closed Riemannian surfaces in the language of the hh-principle and we prove that the inclusion from the space of smooth conformal immersions to the space of immersions induces a bijection on the sets of path connected components.
