摘要
It is known that planar disks and small spherical caps are the only constant mean curvature graphs whose boundary is a round circle. Usually, the proof invokes the Maximum Principle for elliptic equations. This paper presents a new proof of this result motivated by an article due to Reilly. Our proof utilizes a flux formula for surfaces with constant mean curvature together with integral equalities on the surface.
