In the paper, three lower bounds are given for the Morse index of a constant mean curvature torus in Euclidean3‐space, in terms of its spectral genus g . The first two lower bounds grow linearly in g and are stronger for smaller values of g , while the third grows quadratically in g but is weaker for smaller values of g . 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification 53A10, 53A35.
