Distribution value of algebraic curves and the Gauss maps on algebraic minimal surfaces

In this paper, we first establish a degeneracy second main theorem for algebraic curves from compact complex Riemann surfaces into projective varieties intersecting hypersurfaces in subgeneral position. We then use it to study the ramified values for the Gauss map of the complete (regular) minimal surfaces in [Formula: see text] with finite total curvature in the case where the Gauss map may be algebraic degenerate. Our results generalize and improve the previous results in the field.
