Isothermic surfaces and conservation laws

Abstract

For CMC surfaces in 3-dimensional space forms, we relate the moment class of Korevaar--Kusner--Solomon to a second cohomology class arising from the integrable systems theory of isothermic surfaces. In addition, we show that both classes have a variational origin as Noether currents.
