Abstract We construct two complex-conjugated rigid minimal surfaces with $p_g\!=q=2$ and $K^2\!=8$ whose universal cover is not biholomorphic to the bidisk $\mathbb{H} \times \mathbb{H}$. We show that these are the unique surfaces with these invariants and Albanese map of degree 2, apart from the family of product-quotient surfaces given in [33]. This completes the classification of surfaces with $p_g=q=2, K^2=8$, and Albanese map of degree 2.

AbstractIn this paper we prove that a complete, embedded minimal surface M in {\mathbb{R}^{3}} with finite topology and compact boundary (possibly empty) is conformally a compact Riemann surface {\overline{M}} with boundary punctured in a finite number of interior points and that M can be represented in terms of meromorphic data on its conformal completion {\overline{M}}. In particular, we demonstrate that M is a minimal surface of finite type and describe how this property permits a classification of the asymptotic behavior of M.
