Morse index of Karcher saddle towers in $\mathbb{R}^2 \times \mathbb{S}^1(m)$
For each integer $k \geq 3$ Hermann Karcher identified a complete singly periodic minimal surface $Ξ_k$ (unique up to similarity) with $2k$ ends asymptotic to the union of $k$ planes intersecting equiangularly along a single line and with genus zero in the quotient by a fundamental translation. Writing $Ξ_{k,m}$ for the quotient of...
