Franc Forstnerič (Ljubljana) will speak in the differential geometry seminar at 2pm on 22/01/2024, in the Salle des Profs (9th floor of building NO). Franc’s title is “Minimal surfaces with symmetries” and his abstract is below.
Objects with symmetries are of special interest in any mathematical theory. In this lecture, I will present recent results on the existence of orientable minimal surfaces in Euclidean spaces with any given finite group of symmetries induced by orthogonal transformations of the ambient space.
