Alexandrov's soap bubble theorem is a mathematical theorem from geometric analysis that characterizes a sphere through the mean curvature. The theorem was proven in 1958 by Alexander Danilovich Alexandrov.[1][2] In his proof he introduced the method of moving planes, which was used after by many mathematicians successfully in geometric analysis.

Soap bubble theorem

Let be a bounded connected domain with a boundary that is of class with a constant mean curvature, then is a sphere.[3][4]
