Figure: A deformation through constrained elastic curves, starting near a1-wrapped equator and ending near a 5-wrapped equator
TheoremThe Willmore energy along each deformation family containing aWillmore Hopf-torus attains its maximum at this torus. The2-lobed Willmore Hopf-torus has the least energy among theWillmore Hopf-tori.Figure:The 2-lobed Willmore torus, and its free elastic profile curve.
