Let $Q_0$ and $Q_1$ be two Lagrangian spheres in a $6$-dimensional symplectic manifold. Assume that $Q_0$ and $Q_1$ intersect cleanly along a circle that is unknotted in both $Q_0$ and $Q_1$. We prove that there is no nearby Hamiltonian…

We introduce and study the notion of a transformation surface associated with a nowhere-vertical minimal surface in the three-dimensional Heisenberg group, and prove its minimality and duality. Furthermore, by using the logarithmic…

We investigate the minimal and isoperimetric surface problems in a large class of sub-Riemannian manifolds, the so-called Vertically Rigid spaces. We construct an adapted connection for such spaces and, using the variational tools of…

Timelike minimal surfaces in the three-dimensional Lorentzian Heisenberg group are shown to be constructed from Lorentzian harmonic maps into the de-Sitter two-sphere, and they naturally admit singular points. In particular, we provide…

In the context of the minimal SO(5) linear {\sigma}-model, a complete renormalizable Lagrangian -including gauge bosons and fermions- is considered, with the symmetry softly broken to SO(4). The scalar sector describes both the electroweak…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{C}^2$ be a smooth domain. We establish conditions under which a weakly conformal, branched $\Omega$-free boundary Hamiltonian stationary Lagrangian immersion $u$ of a disc in $\mathbb{C}^2$ is a $\Omega$-free…

Let $M$ be an orientable surface immersed in the De Sitter space $S_1^3$ in $R^4_1$ or anti de Sitter space $H_1^3$ in $R^4_2$. In the case that $M$ is of $L_1$-2-type we prove that the following conditions are equivalent to each other: $M$…

We show that any closed oriented immersed Hamiltonian stationary isotropic surface $\Sigma$ with genus $g_{\Sigma}$ in $S^{5}\subset\mathbb{C}^{3}$ is (1) Legendrian and minimal if $g_{\Sigma}=0$; (2) either Legendrian or with exactly…

We study minimal surfaces in generic sub-Riemannian manifolds with sub-Riemannian structures of co-rank one. These surfaces can be defined as the critical points of the so-called {\it horizontal} area functional associated to the canonical…

We compare two families of left-invariant metrics on a surface group $\Gamma=\pi_1(\Sigma)$ in the context of course-geometry. One family comes from Riemannian metrics of negative curvature on the the surface $\Sigma$, and another from…

In this paper, we prove a classification theorem for the stable compact minimal submanifolds of the Riemannian product of an $m_1$-dimensional ($m_1\geq3$) hypersurface $M_1$ in the Euclidean space and any Riemannian manifold $M_2$, when…

Motivated by a recent work of Chen-Zheng [8] on Strominger space forms, we prove that a compact Hermitian surface with pointwise constant holomorphic sectional curvature with respect to a Gauduchon connection $\nabla^t $ is either K\"ahler,…

We study minimal Lagrangian surfaces in the complex hyperbolic quadric. We show that minimality of a Lagrangian surface is characterized by a loop of flat connections, which yields an associated $\mathbb S^1$-family of isometric…

Linear vector waves, both quantum and classical, experience polarization-driven bending of ray trajectories and polarization dynamics that can be interpreted as the precession of the "wave spin". Both phenomena are governed by an effective…

In this paper, we prove that a Riemannian $n$-manifold $M$ with sectional curvature bounded above by $1$ that contains a minimal $2$-sphere of area $4\pi$ which has index at least $n-2$ has constant sectional curvature $1$. The proof uses…

In 1951, H. Hopf proved that the only surfaces, homeomorphic to the sphere, with constant mean curvature in the Euclidean space are the round (geometrical) spheres. These results were generalized by S. S. Chern, and then by Eschenburg and…

For any $k\in \mathbb{N}$ we construct an Hamiltonian stationary Lagrangian map from a disc to $\mathbb{C}^2$ with infinitely many Schoen-Wolfson singularities which is of class $C^k$ up to the boundary and has smooth trace.

A Hamiltonian cycle in a graph is a spanning subgraph that is homeomorphic to a circle. With this in mind, it is natural to define a Hamiltonian d-sphere in a d-dimensional simplicial complex as a spanning subcomplex that is homeomorphic to…

In this work we study surfaces in radial conformally flat spaces. We characterize surfaces of rotation with constant Gaussian and Extrinsic curvature in these radial 3-spaces. We prove that all the spheres in the conformal 3-space have…

We study minimal graphs in the homogeneous Riemannian 3-manifold $\widetilde{PSL_2(\mathbb{R})}$ and we give examples of invariant surfaces. We derive a gradient estimate for solutions of the minimal surface equation in this space and…
