Unitarization of monodromy representations and constant mean curvature trinoids in 3-dimensional space forms

Differential Geometry 2007-09-27 v3

Abstract

We present a theorem on the unitarizability of loop group valued monodromy representations and apply this to show the existence of new families of constant mean curvature surfaces homeomorphic to a thrice-punctured sphere in the simply-connected 3-dimensional space forms R3\R^3, \bbS3\bbS^3 and \bbH3\bbH^3. Additionally, we compute the extended frame for any associated family of Delaunay surfaces.
