Limit lamination theorem for H-disks

Original · EN

In this paper we prove a theorem concerning lamination limits of sequences of compact disks Mₙ embedded in R³ with constant mean curvature Hₙ, when the boundaries of these disks tend to infinity. This theorem generalizes to the non-zero constant mean curvature case Theorem 0.1 by Colding and Minicozzi in [8]. We apply this theorem to prove the existence of a chord arc result for compact disks embedded in R³ with constant mean curvature; this chord arc result generalizes Theorem 0.5 by Colding and Minicozzi in [9] for minimal disks.
