title: Björling problem
text: In differential geometry, the Björling problem is the problem of finding a minimal surface passing through a given curve with prescribed normal. The problem was posed and solved by Swedish mathematician Emanuel Gabriel Björling, with further refinement by Hermann Schwarz. The problem can be solved by extending the surface from the curve using complex analytic continuation. If c is a real analytic curve in R 3 defined over an interval I, with c ′ ≠ 0 and a vector field n along c such that | | n |
