Abstract
We discuss in detail Alan Schoen’s I-WP surface, an embedded triply periodic minimal surface of genus 4 with cubical symmetries. We exhibit various geometric realizations of this surface with the same conformal structure and use them to prove that the associate family of the I-WP surface contains six surfaces congruent to I-WP at Bonnet angles that are multiples of \(60^\circ \).
期刊介绍:
This journal examines global problems of geometry and analysis as well as the interactions between these fields and their application to problems of theoretical physics. It contributes to an enlargement of the international exchange of research results in the field.
The areas covered in Annals of Global Analysis and Geometry include: global analysis, differential geometry, complex manifolds and related results from complex analysis and algebraic geometry, Lie groups, Lie transformation groups and harmonic analysis, variational calculus, applications of differential geometry and global analysis to problems of theoretical physics.
