Dirichlet's Principle, Conformal Mapping, and Minimal Surfaces
Dirichlet's Principle Conformal Mapping and Minimal Surfaces Author:R. Courant An examination of approaches to easy-to-understand but difficult-to-solve mathematical problems, this classic text begins with a discussion of Dirichlet's principle and the boundary value problem of potential theory, then proceeds to examinations of conformal mapping on parallel-slit domains and Plateau's problem. Also explores minimal surfaces ... more »with free boundaries and unstable minimal surfaces. 1950 edition.« less
