V.3 Existence of Parametric disc extensions to Jordan<br />

rectifiable curves.<br />

One point has not been addressed at this stage in order to prove<br />

theoremV.2, thisis the question to knowwhether C(Γ) is empty<br />

or not while assumingΓto be a rectifiableclosed curve only. We<br />

are going to answer positively to this question.<br />

Theorem V.3. Let Γ be a closed Jordan rectifiable curve then<br />

C(Γ) is not empty.<br />

✷<br />

Our approach consists in approximating Γ by smooth curves<br />
