A well known consequence of the Wirtinger inequality is that in a Kaehler surface a holomorphic curve is an area minimizer in its homology class. In light of this result it is natural, given a Kaehler surface, to investigate the relation between area minimizers and complex curves. When the Kaehler surface is a K3 surface this problem takes on a new character. A Ricci flat (Calabi-Yau) metric on a K3 surface X is hyperkaehler in the sense that there is a two-sphere of complex structures, called the hyperkaehler line, each of which is compatible with the metric. A minimizer of area among surfaces representing a homology class alpha consists of a sum of branched immersed surfaces and it is then reasonable to ask whether each surface in this collection is holomorphic for some complex structure on the hyperkaehler line. Though this is true for many homology classes and there is other evidence that makes this pausible, in this paper we show that there is an integral homology class alpha and a hyperkaehler metric g such that no area minimizer of alpha has this property.
Let $fcolon M^{2n}tomathbb{R}^{2n+p}$ denote an isometric immersion of a Kaehler manifold of complex dimension $ngeq 2$ into Euclidean space with codimension $p$. If $2pleq 2n-1$, we show that generic rank conditions on the second fundamental form of
Let $Kbackslash G$ be an irreducible Hermitian symmetric space of noncompact type and $Gamma ,subset, G$ a closed torsionfree discrete subgroup. Let $X$ be a compact Kahler manifold and $rho, :, pi_1(X, x_0),longrightarrow, Gamma$ a homomorphism such
The variational problem for the functional $F=frac12|phi^*omega|_{L^2}^2$ is considered, where $phi:(M,g)to (N,omega)$ maps a Riemannian manifold to a symplectic manifold. This functional arises in theoretical physics as the strong coupling limit of
The conformal parameterisation of a minimal surface is harmonic. Therefore, a minimal surface is a critical point of both the energy functional and the area functional. In this paper, we compare the Morse index of a minimal surface as a critical poin
We establish a quantitative lower bound on the reach of flat norm minimizers for boundaries in $mathbb{R}^2$.
