Energy quantization for constrained Willmore surfaces

Differential Geometry 2025-05-27 v1 Analysis of PDEs

Abstract

We establish an energy quantization for constrained Willmore surfaces, where the constraints are given by area, volume, and total mean curvature, assuming that the underlying conformal structures remain bounded. Furthermore, we show strong compactness of constrained Willmore surfaces under some energy threshold, proving in particular the strong compactness of minimizers of two previously studied problems.
