Two classes of Willmore Surfaces in $\mathbb{S}^2\times \mathbb{S}^2$

Abstract: We establish two classification theorems for Willmore surfaces in $\mathbb{S}^2 \times \mathbb{S}^2$. Firstly, we prove that a Willmore surface which is also minimal must be either a special complex curve given by a slice or a diagonal; or, a minimal surface in a totally geodesic submanifold $\mathbb{S}^2 \times \mathbb{S}^1$ described by a solution of the sinh-Gordon equation in one variable. Secondly, we demonstrate that a Willmore surface is of product type if and only if it is the product of an elastic curve in $\mathbb{S}^2$ and a great circle.
