Abstract
We will go over many different flavours of the basics of minimal surfaces and see how it connects to calculus of variations. In doing so we will touch on Morse theory of infinite dimensional spaces and the relation between topology and critical points of geometric functionals. We will present many examples and eventually reach some of the modern open questions in the theory.Download:Talk_1131126.pdf
