Classification of conformal minimal immersions of constant curvature from \(S^2\) to \(Q_3\). (English) Zbl 1357.53069

Summary: In this paper, we study geometry of conformal minimal two-spheres immersed in complex hyperquadric \(Q_3\). We firstly use Bahy-El-Dien and Wood’s results to obtain some characterizations of the harmonic sequences generated by conformal minimal immersions from \(S^2\) to \(G(2,5;\mathbb{R})\). Then we give a classification theorem of linearly full totally unramified conformal minimal immersions of constant curvature from \(S^2\) to \(G(2,5;\mathbb{R})\), or equivalently, a complex hyperquadric \(Q_3\).
