Summary of FvK Model
1. With decreasing thickness minimizers converge to a two waveprofile.
2. The periodic profiles do agree qualitatively with experimentalobservations.
3. We proved rigorously that there is no “crossover” regime whichallows for refinement of the number of waves.
4. We showed that the minimum are perturbations of isometricimmersions with localized regions of stretching near the edge ofthe domain and along the lines of inflection.

Amsler Surfaces
1. A surface of constant negative Gaussian curvature K and twostraight asymptotic curves is called an Amsler Surface.
2. The similarity solution ϕ(λ) = φ(u, v), λ = 2√
uv satisfies thefollowing Painleve III equation in trigonometric form:{
ϕ′′(λ) + 1λϕ′(λ)− sin(ϕ(λ)) = 0
ϕ(0) = πn and dϕ
dλ (0) = 0.
3. A key property of these surfaces is that the surface has two asymptotic
lines that intersect at the origin at an angle ϕ(0) = πn .

Summary of Kirchhoff Model
1. We provided numerical evidence that the maximum principalcurvatures of smooth isometric immersions grows exponentiallyin√−K0R. This is not capture by the FvK approximation.
2. We constructed piecewise smooth isometric immersions thathave the same symmetry as the experimentally observeddeformations. These periodic Amsler surfaces have bendingenergy then their smooth counterparts.
3. For each n ≥ 2 there is a radius Rn ∼ log(n) such that then-periodic Amsler surfaces only exist for 0 < R < Rn. This givesa natural mechanism for refinement of wavelength withincreasing diameter.

Future Directions
1. The full problem has multiple scales. Perhaps a combination ofdifferent reduced theories is needed in various regions of thedomain.
2. The periodic shapes in swelling hydrogels are the result ofdynamical processes. It may be more appropriate to model thistype of differential growth dynamically, perhaps as a gradientflow of the elastic energy. seem to describe the observedpatterns.
3. In the FvK approximation the deformation is perturbed around aflat surface. Perhaps it is more appropriate to perturb around anexact isometric immersion.
