This paper consists of two parts. In the first part, which is of more abstract nature, the notion of quasi boundary triples and associated Weyl functions is developed further in such a way that it can be applied to elliptic boundary value…
We investigate the logarithmic convexity of the length of the level curves for harmonic functions on surfaces and related isoperimetric type inequalities. The results deal with smooth surfaces, as well as with singular Alexandrov surfaces…
We introduce a new method of symmetrization of mappings on the $n$-sphere ($n\geq 2$). They are applied to estimate solutions of quasilinear elliptic partial differential equations of $p$-Laplacian type, with combinations of Dirac measures…
This paper regroups some of the basic properties of Lipschitz maps and their flows. Many of the results presented here are classical in the case of smooth maps. We prove them here in the Lipschitz case for a better understanding of the…
We consider codimension 2 sphere congruences in pseudo-conformal geometry that are harmonic with respect to the conformal structure of an orthogonal surface. We characterise the orthogonal surfaces of such congruences as either $S$-Willmore…
We prove the following theorem: every quasiconformal harmonic mapping between two plane domains with $C^{1,\alpha}$ ($\alpha<1$), respectively $C^{1,1}$ compact boundary is bi-Lipschitz. The distance function with respect to the boundary of…
In this paper, we study a natural discretization of the smooth Gaussian curvature on surfaces, which is defined as the quotient of the angle defect and the area of a geodesic disk at a vertex of a polyhedral surface. It is proved that each…
Given a map $u : \Om \sub \R^n \larrow \R^N$, the $\infty$-Laplacian is the system \[ \label{1} \De_\infty u \, :=\, \Big(Du \ot Du + |Du|^2 [Du]^\bot \ \ot I \Big) : D^2 u\, = \, 0 \tag{1} \] and arises as the "Euler-Lagrange PDE" of the…
For compact domains with smooth boundaries, we present an approximation scheme for surface spline approximation that delivers precise $L_p$ approximation orders on well known smoothness spaces. This scheme overcomes the boundary effects…
The theory of the isoptic curves is widely studied in the Euclidean plane $\bE^2$ (see \cite{CMM91} and \cite{Wi} and the references given there). The analogous question was investigated by the authors in the hyperbolic $\bH^2$ and elliptic…
We investigate the logarithmic and power-type convexity of the length of the level curves for $a$-harmonic functions on smooth surfaces and related isoperimetric inequalities. In particular, our analysis covers the $p$-harmonic and the…
In this paper, we prove that Euclidean hypersurfaces with almost extremal extrinsic radius or $\lambda_1$ have a spectrum that asymptotically contains the spectrum of the extremal sphere in the Reilly or Hasanis-Koutroufiotis Inequalities.…
In the Teichm\"uller space of a hyperbolic surface of finite type, we construct geodesic lines for Thurston's asymmetric metric having the property that when they are traversed in the reverse direction, they are also geodesic lines (up to…
We show the regularity of, and derive a-priori estimates for (weakly) harmonic maps from a Riemannian manifold into a Euclidean sphere under the assumption that the image avoids some neighborhood of a half-equator. The proofs combine…
We show that the class of quasisymmetric maps between horizontal self-affine carpets is rigid. Such maps can only exist when the dimensions of the carpets coincide, and in this case, the quasisymmetric maps are quasi-Lipschitz. We also show…
We determine explicit birational models over Q for the modular surfaces parametrising pairs of N-congruent elliptic curves in all cases where this surface is an elliptic surface. In each case we also determine the rank of the Mordell-Weil…
We investigate shrinking maps from a cusped hyperbolic surface into the moduli space of closed Riemann surfaces. For such a map and its lift to the Teichm\"uller space, we consider whether they are quasi-isometric embeddings with respect to…
We prove that every sense-preserving harmonic $K$--quasiconformal homeomorphism $f\colon D\to\Omega$ between Lyapunov domains (equivalently, bounded $C^{1,\alpha}$ domains) in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $\alpha\in(0,1]$, is globally Lipschitz on…
In \cite{kamz} the author proved that every quasiconformal harmonic mapping between two Jordan domains with $C^{1,\alpha}$, $0<\alpha\le 1$, boundary is bi-Lipschitz, providing that the domain is convex. In this paper we avoid the…
Liebmann's Theorem asserts that a compact, connected, convex surface with constant mean curvature (CMC) in the Euclidean space must be a totally umbilical sphere. In this article we extend Liebmann's result to hypersurfaces with boundary.…
