This research introduces a novel neural framework for representing minimal surfaces by leveraging exact mathematical parameterizations rather than relying on discretization or standard Physics-Informed Neural Networks. By optimizing over an exact representation similar to the Weierstrass-Enneper formula, the method achieves high-fidelity solutions with negligible quadrature error specifically within computer graphics and geometric modeling contexts. While it utilizes machine learning techniques for training objectives, its core contribution lies in advancing mathematical representations of geometry rather than addressing general AI capabilities or quantum advancements.
Neural Representation of Minimal Surfaces
arXiv:2607.23437v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We propose a neural representation for minimal surfaces. Unlike prior approaches based on discretization or Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs), where meshes or neural fields are optimized to approximate the governing equations, our method builds on an exact representation, similar to the classical Weierstrass--Enneper parameterization, yielding minimal surfaces up to negligible quadrature error in evaluation. We formulate a training objective for the Plateau problem that optimizes over this representation.
