Interpolation by maximal surfaces and minimal surfaces


Abstract in English

In this article, we interpolate a given real analytic spacelike curve $a$ in Lorentz-Minkowski space $mathbb{L}^3$ to another real analytic spacelike curve $c$, which is close enough to $a$ in a certain sense, by a maximal surface using inverse function theorem for Banach spaces. Using the same method we also interpolate a given real analytic curve $a$ in Euclidean space $mathbb{E}^3$ to another real analytic curve $c$, which is close enough to $a$ in a certain sense, by a minimal surface. The Bjorling problem and Schwartzs solution to it play an important role.
