    Constant mean curvature spheres in \(\text{ Sol}_3\) (English)
    0 references
    \(\mathrm{Sol}_3\) is a simply connected homogeneous 3-dimensional manifold whose isometry group has dimension 3 and represents one of the eight models of geometry established by Thurston. For each \(H>0\), the author shows that there exists a unique immersed constant mean curvature (abbreviated, CMC) \(H\) sphere \(S_H\) in \(\mathrm{Sol}_3\). An essential result proved in this paper is the existence of height estimates for certain CMC graphs \(H\) in \(\mathrm{Sol}_3\) that exclusively depend on a fixed positive lower bound for \(H\).
