Such surfaces are complete and compact, have genus one and almost constant, say 1, mean curvature, when $n$ is large. Considering a class of mappings $H\\colon\\mathbb{R}^{3}\\to\\mathbb{R}$ such that $H(X)\\to 1$ as $|X|\\to\\infty$ with some decay of inverse-power type, we show that for $n$ large and $|a|$ small, in a suitable neighborhood of any Delaunay torus with $n$ lobes and neck-size $a$ there is no parametric surface constructed as normal graph over the Delaunay torus and whose mean curvature equals $H$ at every point.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-08-31T12:26:16.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "53A10", "53A05", "53C42", "53C21" ], "keywords": [ "constant mean curvature", "singular limit", "compact surfaces", "delaunay torus", "non-existence" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
