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 with free boundaries and unstable minimal surfaces. 1950 edition.Courant, Richard is the author of 'Dirichlet's Principle, Conformal Mapping, and Minimal Surfaces', published 2005 under ISBN 9780486445526 and ISBN 0486445526.
