Abstract: | Willmore immersions of an orientable surface X in the n-dimensionalsphere appear as the extremal points of a conformally invariant variational problem in the space of all immersions f: X S
n.In this paper we will study Willmore immersions of the differentiable two-sphere in S
4, using the method of moving frames and Cartan's conformal structures.The work on this paper was partially supported by a Fellowship of the Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche. |
