The $H^{2,2}$-regularity of the minimal surface of annulus type will be proved by applying the critical points theory and Morrey's growth condition.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2006-03-27T08:45:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "49Q05", "58E05" ], "keywords": [ "minimal surface", "annulus type", "riemannian manifold", "variational approach", "regularity" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 22, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006math......3610K" } } }
