Synopsis

This book is a thorough exposition on a subject of double minimal surfaces, a branch of mathematics concerned with surfaces described by two sets of differential equations with shared solutions. Surfaces with minimal areas, or minimal surfaces, are crucial for understanding the forms found universally in nature and architecture. The primitive double minimal surfaces of the seventh class, the central subject of this book, possess fascinating properties that the author, a noted mathematician, explores in great depth, with detailed numerical data. This book is a valuable contribution to the study of minimal surfaces and will be of great interest to mathematicians who work with differential geometry and seek to model natural forms.
