For any open orientable surface $M$ and convex domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{C}^3,$ there exists a Riemann surface $N$ homeomorphic to $M$ and a complete proper null curve $F:N\to\Omega.$ This result follows from a general existence theorem…

We prove that any convex domain of C^2 carries properly embedded complete complex curves. In particular, we exhibit the first examples of complete bounded embedded complex curves in C^2

We prove that on every compact Riemann surface $M$ there is a Cantor set $C \subset M$ such that $M \setminus C$ admits a proper conformal constant mean curvature one ($\mathrm{CMC\text{-}1}$) immersion into hyperbolic $3$-space…

Let $F$ be a proper essential immersed surface in a hyperbolic 3-manifold $M$ with boundary disjoint from a torus boundary component $T$ of $M$. Let $\alpha$ be the set of coannular slopes of $F$ on $T$. The main theorem of the paper shows…

We define a new theory of discrete Riemann surfaces and present its basic results. The key idea is to consider not only a cellular decomposition of a surface, but the union with its dual. Discrete holomorphy is defined by a straightforward…

The classical theorem of F\'{a}ry states that every planar graph can be represented by an embedding in which every edge is represented by a straight line segment. We consider generalizations of F\'{a}ry's theorem to surfaces equipped with…

We show that every topological surface lamination of a 3-manifold M is isotopic to one with smoothly immersed leaves. This carries out a project proposed by Gabai in [Problems in foliations and laminations, AMS/IP Stud. Adv. Math. 2.2…

We prove that closed surfaces of all topological types, except for the non-orientable odd-genus ones, can be minimally embedded in the Riemannian product of a sphere and a circle of arbitrary radius. We illustrate it by obtaining some…

In this paper we prove that, given an open Riemann surface $M$ and an integer $n\ge 3$, the set of complete conformal minimal immersions $M\to\mathbb{R}^n$ with $\overline{X(M)}=\mathbb{R}^n$ forms a dense subset in the space of all…

We approach the study of totally real immersions of smooth manifolds into holomorphic Riemannian space forms of constant sectional curvature -1. We introduce a notion of first and second fundamental form, we prove that they satisfy a…

We consider immersions of a Riemann surface into a manifold with $G_2$-holonomy and give criteria for them to be conformal and harmonic, in terms of an associated Gauss map.

We review classical approaches to the problem of isometrically embedding a Riemannian surface into Euclidean 3-space, including coordinate-based approaches exposited by Darboux and Eisenhart, as well as the moving-frames based approaches…

In this paper we construct a properly embedded holomorphic disc in the unit ball $\mathbb{B}^2$ of $\mathbb{C}^2$ having a surprising combination of properties: on the one hand, it has finite area and hence is the zero set of a bounded…

We prove the existence of immersed closed curves of constant geodesic curvature in an arbitrary Riemannian 2-sphere for almost every prescribed curvature. To achieve this, we develop a min-max scheme for a weighted length functional.

We study the embedded Calabi-Yau problem for complete embedded constant mean curvature surfaces of finite topology or of positive injectivity radius in a simply-connected three-dimensional Lie group X endowed with a left-invariant…

Consider a domain D in R^3 which is convex (possibly all R^3) or which is smooth and bounded. Given any open surface M, we prove that there exists a complete, proper minimal immersion f : M --> D. Moreover, if D is smooth and bounded, then…

We study curvature functionals for immersed 2-spheres in non-compact, three-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(M,h)$ without boundary. First, under the assumption that $(M,h)$ is the euclidean 3-space endowed with a semi-perturbed metric…

In this paper, we prove that any non-positively curved 2-dimensional surface (alias, Busemann surface) is isometrically embeddable into $L_1$. As a corollary, we obtain that all planar graphs which are 1-skeletons of planar non-positively…

This note pertains to isometric embeddings endowed with certain geometric properties. We study two embedding problems for a Riemannian manifold $M$ which is diffeomorphic to $\RR^n$ and admits a Bieberbach group $\Gamma$ acting by…
