A frame energy for immersed tori and applications to regular homotopy classes

The paper is devoted to studying the Dirichlet energy of moving frames on 2-dimensional tori immersed in the euclidean 3 ≤ m-dimensional space. This functional, called frame energy, is naturally linked to the Willmore energy of the immersion and on the conformal structure of the abstract underlying...
