The sharp isoperimetric inequality on minimal submanifolds

Topic:
We will describe the history of the conjecture that the isoperimetric inequality with the Rn
constant should hold for a domain on a minimal submanifold of dimension
n in Euclidean space. We will then describe a new method which proves
the inequality in many cases for n=2, and which we believe has the potential to handle the general two dimensional case.
