Calabi–Yau domain conjecture for the properly embedded one-manifold [?]

Let B\mathbb{B} be the unit ball and let ΔB\Delta\subset\mathbb{B} be the properly embedded one-manifold given in the proof of Theorem~. Let B\overline{B} be a smooth compact Riemannian three-ball, let BB denote its interior, and let F ⁣:BBF\colon\overline{B}\to\mathbb{B} be a smooth diffeomorphism. A domain is called a Calabi–Yau domain for a class of surfaces if it admits no complete, properly immersed open surface in that class with bounded mean curvature. Calabi–Yau domain conjecture. The domain

D=BF1(Δ)\mathcal{D}=B-F^{-1}(\Delta)

is a Calabi–Yau domain for any noncompact surface with compact boundary, possibly empty. In particular, D=BΔ\mathcal{D}=\mathbb{B}-\Delta does not admit any complete, properly immersed open surfaces with bounded mean curvature. This conjecture proposes a broad Calabi–Yau property for domains obtained by removing the specified properly embedded one-manifold; the paper concludes with it, and no resolution is given in the supplied text.
