Half Wente Torus

The Wente Torus
As concretized by Stewart Dickson Research sponsored by Computer Science and Mathematics Division of Oak Ridge National Laboratory, managed by UT-Battelle, LLC for the U.S. DOE under Contract No. DE-AC05-00OR22725

Is a compact immersion of the torus which has constant mean curvature. Previous to 1984, the only known surface having this property was the sphere. Henry Wente, who discovered this surface is on the faculty of the Department of Mathematics, University of Toledo.
