Abstract

We investigate the coupling of the minimal surface equation with a spinor of harmonic type. This arises as the Euler–Lagrange equations of the sum of the volume functional and the Dirac action, defined on an appropriated Dirac bundle. The solutions show a relation to Dirac-harmonic maps under some constraints on the energy-momentum tensor, extending the relation between Riemannian minimal surface and harmonic maps.
