The one-two-three conjecture for genus-three minimal surfaces in flat three-tori
Let be a compact oriented minimal surface in a flat three-torus, and suppose that has genus three. Write for its Morse index with respect to the area functional. One-two-three conjecture. One has
The preceding results establish this bound for the five described families and indicate that genus-three compact oriented minimal surfaces in flat three-tori should have uniformly bounded Morse index. Whether the bound holds for every such surface remains open.
