| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We showed that constancy of Gauss curvature of surfaces (of Gauss curvature less than 1) in the 3-sphere is characterized by the harmonicity of normal Gauss map. Based on this characterization, we established a loop group method for constructing negative constant Gauss curvature surfaces and surfaces of constant positive Gauss curvature (less than 1) in the 3-sphere simultaneously. We also obtain a loop group method for constructing surfaces of constant negative Gauss curvature (greather than -1) in hyperbolic 3-space. By combining spin geometry and loop group theory , we established a loop group method for constructing minimal surfaces in the 3-dimensional Heisenberg group. As an application, we give some new examples of minimal surfaces in the Heisenberg group.
