Convex Programs for Minimal-Area Problems

Abstract The minimal-area problem that defines string diagrams in closed string field theory asks for the metric of least area on a Riemann surface with the condition that all non-contractible closed curves have length at least $$2\pi $$ 2 π . This is an extremal length problem in conf...
