Abstract

We consider the class of minimal surfaces given by the graphical strips S in the Heisenberg group H¹ and we prove that for points p along the center of H¹ the quantity is monotone increasing. Here, Q is the homogeneous dimension of H¹. We also prove that these minimal surfaces have maximum volume growth at infinity.
