The elements of this family which are embedded are called unduloids; all other elements, which correspond to parameter value τ ∈ R− , are immersed and are called nodoids. The unduloids are stable in the sense that the only global constant mean curvature deformations of them are to other elements of this Delaunay family. We prove here that this same property is true for nodoids only when τ is sufficiently close to zero (this corresponds to these surfaces having small 'necksizes'). On the other hand, we show that as τ decreases to −∞, infinitely many new families of complete, cylindrically bounded constant mean curvature surfaces bifurcate from this Delaunay family. The surfaces in these branches have only a discrete symmetry group.
