Abstract

We prove that, given a C-2 Riemannian metric g on the 2-dimensional disk D-2, any short C-1 immersion of (D-2, g) into R-3 can be uniformly approximated with C-1,C-alpha isometric immersions for any alpha < 1/5 . This statement improves previous results by Yu. F. Borisov and of a joint paper of the first and third author with S. Conti.
