This extends a result of Colding and Minicozzi, who constructed a sequence for which the curvature blows up only at the center of the ball, and is a partial affirmative answer to the larger question of the existence of a sequence for which the curvature blows up precisely on a prescribed closed set on the x_3-axis.10 pages, 0 figures, preprintDifferential GeometryPrimary 53C42; Secondary 53A10, 57R40Embedded minimal disks with prescribed curvature blowuptext
