| contents | The combination of recent results due to Yu and Chen [Proc. AMS 150(4), 2020, 1749-1765] and to Bostan and Yurkevich [Proc. AMS 150(5), 2022, 2131-2136] shows that the 3-D Euclidean shape of the square Clifford torus is uniquely determined by its isoperimetric ratio. This solves part of the still open uniqueness problem of the Canham model for biomembranes. In this work we investigate the generalization of the aforementioned result to the case of a rectangular Clifford torus. Like the square case, we find closed-form formulas in terms of hypergeometric functions for the isoperimetric ratio of its stereographic projection to $\mathbb{R}^3$ and show that the corresponding function is strictly increasing. But unlike the square case, we show that the isoperimetric ratio does not uniquely determine the Euclidean shape of a rectangular Clifford torus. |
