Finiteness conjecture for constant mean curvature surfaces in flat 3-tori
Finiteness conjecture for constant mean curvature surfaces in flat 3-tori
Let and . Consider the moduli space of non-congruent, connected, closed -surfaces of genus at most in a fixed flat -torus. Finiteness conjecture. This moduli space is finite.
The conjecture is motivated by compactness for bounded-genus constant mean curvature surfaces. It contrasts with the existence of embedded connected closed minimal surfaces of arbitrarily large area in many genera, and the finiteness of the positive-mean-curvature moduli space remains open.
