This paper surveys a number of these developments in the setting of Alexandrov embedded surfaces; the focus is on gluing constructions and moduli space theory, and the analytic techniques on which these results depend. The last section contains some new results about smoothing the moduli space and about CMC surfaces in asymptotically Euclidean manifolds.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-09-24T22:24:24.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "53A10" ], "keywords": [ "constant mean curvature surfaces", "global theory", "moduli space theory", "complete surfaces", "euclidean manifolds" ], "tags": [ "conference paper" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 29, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2002math......9330M" } } }
