ACAdrian Chun-Pong Chu

Key Points

  • Every Riemannian 3-sphere with positive Ricci curvature contains minimal surfaces of any genus.
  • The area of these minimal surfaces is at most twice the first Simon-Smith width of the ambient space.
  • Surfaces studied possess finitely many singularities, demonstrating specific topological structure.
  • This research enriches understanding of minimal surfaces within the context of Riemannian geometry.

Abstract

We describe some topological structure in the set of all surfaces with finitely many singularities in the 3-sphere. As an application, we prove that every Riemannian 3-sphere of positive Ricci curvature contains, for every g, a genus g embedded minimal surface with area at most twice the first Simon-Smith width of the ambient 3-sphere.
