Abstract: In this paper we describe the dynamics of shape fluctuations of microemulsion droplets around a spherical equilibrium form. In the analysis we take the bending elasticity and the natural curvature of the interface into account. Furthermore we keep the volume of the droplets constant rather than the surface area of the droplets. We argue that this is more appropriate for microemulsion droplets.
