Genus one critical catenoid
Abstract
We use variational methods to construct a free boundary minimal surface in the three-dimensional unit ball with genus one, two boundary components and prismatic symmetry. Key ingredients are an extension of the equivariant min-max theory to include orientation-reversing isometries and the discovery of a nontrivial two-parameter sweepout.
