We prove unicity of certain minimal submanifolds, for example Clifford annuli in . The idea is to consider the placement of the submanifold with respect to the (singular) foliation of by the Clifford annuli whose boundary are two fixed great circles a distance apart.

We consider surfaces immersed in three-dimensional pseudohermitian manifolds. We define the notion of (p-)mean curvature and of the associated (p-)minimal surfaces, extending some concepts previously given for the (flat) Heisenberg group. We interpret the p-mean curvature not only as the tangential sublaplacian of a defining function, but also as the curvature of a characteristic curve, and as a quantity in terms of calibration geometry. As a differential equation, the p-minimal surface...

In this paper, history of reserches for minimal immersions from constant Gaussian curvature 2-manifolds into space forms is explained with special emphasis of works of O. Borůvka. Then recent results for the corresponding probrem to classify minimal immersions of such surfaces in complex space forms are discussed.
