1. A Noncommutative Catenoid
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Matematik och tillämpad matematik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakultetenAbstract : Noncommutative geometry generalizes many geometric results from such fields as differential geometry and algebraic geometry to a context where commutativity cannot be assumed. Unfortunately there are few concrete non-trivial examples of noncommutative objects. READ MORE

2. Bäcklund transformations for minimal surfaces
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Matematik och tillämpad matematik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakultetenAbstract : In this thesis, we study a Bäcklund transformation for minimal surfaces - surfaces with vanishing mean curvature - transforming a given minimal surface into a possible infinity of new ones. The transformation, also carrying with it mappings between solutions to the elliptic Liouville equation, is first derived by using geometrical concepts, and then by using algebraic methods alone - the latter we have not been able to find elsewhere.
