Introduction to Minimal Surfaces

Explore the fascinating world of minimal surfaces in this 57-minute lecture by Rukmini Dey from the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into the mathematical aspects of zero mean curvature surfaces, which appear in nature as idealized soap films. Gain insights into the concept of minimal surfaces in Euclidean 3-space and their properties. Brush up on complex analysis concepts, such as holomorphic and meromorphic functions, to enhance your understanding of the topic. This talk, part of the Summer School for Women in Mathematics and Statistics, offers a comprehensive introduction to an intriguing area of mathematical study.
