Abstract

Let MM be an open Riemann surface and let ΛM\Lambda\subset M be a closed discrete subset. In this paper, we prove the existence of complete conformal minimal immersions MRnM\to\mathbb{R}^n, n3n\ge 3, with prescribed values on Λ\Lambda and whose generalized Gauss map MCPn1M\to\mathbb{CP}^{n-1}, n3n\ge 3, avoids nn hyperplanes of CPn1\mathbb{CP}^{n-1} located in general position. In case n=3n=3, we obtain complete nonflat conformal minimal immersions whose Gauss map MS2M\to\mathbb{S}^2 omits two (antipodal) values of the sphere. This result is deduced as a consequence of an interpolation theorem for conformal minimal immersions MRnM\to\mathbb{R}^n into the Euclidean space Rn\mathbb{R}^n, n3n\ge 3, with n2n-2 prescribed components.
