Lectures on Minimal Surface Theory
by Brian White
Publisher: arXiv 2013
Number of pages: 46
Description:
The goal was to give beginning graduate students an introduction to some of the most important basic facts and ideas in minimal surface theory. I have kept prerequisites to a minimum: the reader should know basic complex analysis and elementary differential geometry.
