A Version of the Ruh–Vilms Theorem for Surfaces of Constant Mean Curvature in $S^3$
L. A. Masal'tsev V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University
Abstract:
We study a version of the Gauss map $g\ :M^2\to S^2$ for a surface $M^2$ immersed in $S^3$ and prove an analog of the Ruh–Vilms theorem which states that this map is harmonic if $M^2$ has a constant mean curvature. As a corollary, we conclude that an embedded flat torus $T^2$ with constant mean curvature is a spherical Delonay surface.
