Zero-curvature point of minimal graphs

Published 6 Sep 2021 in math.DG and math.CV | (2109.02745v1)

Abstract: Motivated by a classical result of Finn and Osserman (1964), who proved that the Scherk surface over the square inscribed in the unit disk is extremal for the Gaussian curvature of the point $O$ (so-called \emph{centre}) of the minimal graphs above the center $0$ of unit unit disk, provided the tangent plane is horizontal, we ask and answer to the question concerned the extremal of "second derivative" of the Gaussian curvature of such graphs provided that its curvature at $O$ is zero. We prove that the extremals are certain Scherk type minimal surfaces over the regular hexagon inscribed in the unit disk, provided that the Gaussian curvature vanishes and the tangent plane is horizontal at the centre.
