A minimal surface in a Euclidean space $\mathbb R^n$ for $n\ge 3$ is an immersed surface which locally minimizes the area. Every oriented minimal surface is parameterized by a conformal harmonic immersion from an open Riemann surface, and vice versa. In this talk, I shall present a recent result on the existence of minimal surfaces of a given conformal type having a given finite group of symmetries induced by orthogonal transformations on $\mathbb R^n$.

Everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend.
