Shapes and singularities in triatic liquid crystal vesicles

Determining the equilibrium configuration and shape of curved two-dimensional films with (generalized) liquid crystalline (LC) order is a difficult infinite dimensional problem of direct relevance to the study of generalized polymersomes, soft matter and the fascinating problem of understanding the...
