This article explains a program to study complete and properly embedded minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ developed jointly with W.H. Meeks and A. Ros in the last three decades. It follows closely the structure of my invited ICM talk with…
We show that in the setting of proper metric spaces one obtains a solution of the classical two-dimensional Plateau problem by minimizing the energy, as in the classical case, once a definition of area (in the sense of convex geometry) has…
The Fields Medal, often referred as the Nobel Prize of mathematics, is awarded to no more than four mathematician under the age of 40, every four years. In recent years, its conferral has come under scrutiny of math historians, for…
This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of research on Douglas curvature in Finsler spaces. It explores the significance, properties, and applications of Douglas curvature, and its role in understanding Finsler…
An outline of J\"org Eschmeier's main mathematical contributions is organized both on a historical perspective, as well as on a few distinct topics. The reader can grasp from our essay the dynamics of spectral theory of commutative tuples…
This is a corrected version of my paper "Application of integral geometry to minimal surfaces" appeared in International J. Math. vol. 4 Nr. 1 (1993), 89-111. The correction concerns Proposition 3.5. We discuss this correction in Appendix…
The paper sheds a new light on the fundamental theorems of complex analysis due to P. Fatou, F. and M. Riesz, N. N. Lusin, I. I. Privalov, and A. Beurling. Only classical tools available at the times of Fatou are used. The proofs are very…
We give a fairly complete solution to the asymptotic Plateau Problem for area minimizing surfaces in H2xR. In particular, we identify the collection of Jordan curves in the asymptotic boundary of H2xR, which bounds an area minimizing…
The contributions of Lucio Russo to the mathematics of percolation and disordered systems are outlined. The context of his work is explained, and its ongoing impact on current work is described and amplified.
In this thesis, we present various contributions to the study of free boundary minimal surfaces. After introducing some basic tools and discussing some delicate aspects related to the definition of Morse index when allowing for a contact…
The purpose of this article is three-fold. First, we apply a general theorem from our earlier work to produce many new minimal doublings of the Clifford Torus in the round three-sphere. This construction generalizes and unifies prior…
We discuss applications of minimal surfaces to comparison geometry.
In this paper, we present our general results about traversing flows on manifolds with boundary in the context of the flows on surfaces with boundary. We take advantage of the relative simplicity of $2D$-worlds to explain and popularize our…
This paper has several goals. The first idea is to study the geometric PDEs of connection-flatness, curvature-flatness, Ricci-flatness, scalar curvature-flatness in a modern and rigorous way. Although the idea is not new, our main Theorems…
We present a general purpose method for solving partial differential equations on a closed surface, based on a technique for discretizing the surface introduced by Wenjun Ying and Wei-Cheng Wang [J. Comput. Phys. 252 (2013), pp. 606-624]…
We provide a probabilistic approach to studying minimal surfaces in three-dimensional Euclidean space. Following a discussion of the basic relationship between Brownian motion on a surface and minimality of the surface, we introduce a way…

We define and prove the existence of unique solutions of an asymptotic Plateau problem for spacelike maximal surfaces in the pseudo-hyperbolic space of signature (2, n): the boundary data is given by loops on the boundary at infinity of the…
By fully describing the lattice of subfields of some towers of number fields built by iterating square roots, we obtain infinitely many fields, each of them either contradicts Julia Robinson's problem (obtaining a JR-number $4$ which is not…
