In our previous work we introduced, for a Riemannian surface $S$, the quantity $ \Lambda(S):=\inf_F\lambda_0(F)$, where $\lambda_0(F)$ denotes the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of $F$ and the infimum is taken over all compact subsurfaces $F$…

A minimal immersion from a surface to $S^3$ can be viewed both as a critical point of the area and of the energy. Although no difference appears at first order, looking at the respective second variations unveils significant differences. It…
