Higher Genus Doubly Periodic Minimal Surfaces

 

ABSTRACT

We construct Weierstrass data for higher genus embedded doubly periodic minimal surfaces and present numerical evidence that the associated period problem can be solved. In the orthogonal ends case, there previously was only one known surface for each genus g. We illustrate multiple new examples for each genus g ⩾ 3. In the parallel ends case, the known examples limit as a foliation of parallel planes with nodes. We construct a new example for each genus g ⩾ 3 that limit as g − 1 singly periodic Scherk surfaces glued between two doubly periodic Scherk surfaces and also as a singly periodic surface with four vertical and 2g horizontal Scherk ends.
