Nonpositively curved surfaces in R3

Hsungrow Chan & Andrejs Treibergs

Abstract:

We consider complete nonpositively curved surfaces with one end twice continuously differentiably immersed in Euclidean three space. If such a surface is embedded near infinity and has square integrable second fundamental form then it must lie between two parallel planes.
