In this article, we prove a geometric inequality for star-shaped and mean-convex hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space by inverse mean curvature flow. This inequality can be considered as a generalization of Willmore inequality for closed…

We give a universal upper bound for the total curvature of minimizing geodesic on a convex surface in the Euclidean space.

In this study, we define the generalized normal ruled surface of a curve in the Euclidean 3-space $E^3$. We study the geometry of such surfaces by calculating the Gaussian and mean curvatures to determine when the surface is flat or minimal…

This is an elementary introduction to a method for studying harmonic maps into symmetric spaces, and in particular for studying constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces, that was developed by J. Dorfmeister, F. Pedit and H. Wu. There already…

In Euclidean space, we investigate surfaces whose mean curvature $H$ satisfies the equation $H=\alpha\langle N,\mathbf{x}\rangle+\lambda$, where $N$ is the Gauss map, $\mathbf{x}$ is the position vector and $\alpha$ and $\lambda$ are two…

We show that the surface area preserving mean curvature flow in Euclidean space exists for all time and converges exponentially to a round sphere, if initially the L^2-norm of the traceless second fundamental form is small (but the initial…

We present a method to construct a large family of Lagrangian surfaces in complex Euclidean plane by using Legendre curves in the 3-sphere and in the anti de Sitter 3-space or, equivalently, by using spherical and hyperbolic curves,…

This preliminary report studies immersed surfaces of constant mean curvature in $H^3$ through their {\it adjusted Gauss maps} (as harmonic maps in $S^2$) and their {\it adjusted frames} in SU(2). Lawson's correspondence between Euclidean…

In the previous paper, Takahasi and the authors generalized the theory of minimal surfaces in Euclidean n-space to that of surfaces with holomorphic Gauss map in certain class of non-compact symmetric spaces. It also includes the theory of…

We classify weakly complete constant Gaussian curvature $-1<K<0$ surfaces in the hyperbolic three-space in terms of holomorphic quadratic differentials. For this purpose, we first establish a loop group method for constant Gaussian…

In this paper, we find all constant slope surfaces in the Euclidean 3-space, namely those surfaces for which the position vector of a point of the surface makes constant angle with the normal at the surface in that point. These surfaces…

We consider properly immersed finite topology minimal surfaces S in complete finite volume hyperbolic 3-manifolds N, and in M x S(1), where M is a complete hyperbolic surface of finite area. We prove S has finite total curvature equal to…

We investigate the problem of finding complete strictly convex hypersurfaces of constant curvature in hyperbolic space with a prescribed asymptotic boundary at infinity for a general class of curvature functions.

We classify complete orientable hypersurfaces of constant isotropic curvature in space forms. We show that such a hypersurface has constant mean curvature only if it is an isoparametric hypersurface, and that it is minimal if and only if it…

In this paper, we investigate the rigidity problems of complete hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature and constant scalar curvature in Euclidean spaces. Firstly, under some conditions of Gaussian-Kronecker curvature, we provide…

A linear Weingarten surface in Euclidean space ${\bf R}^3$ is a surface whose mean curvature $H$ and Gaussian curvature $K$ satisfy a relation of the form $aH+bK=c$, where $a,b,c\in {\bf R}$. Such a surface is said to be hyperbolic when…

This note revisits the inverse mean curvature flow in the 3-dimensional hyperbolic space. In particular, we show that the limiting shape is not necessarily round after scaling, thus resolving an inconsistency in the literature.

It is well-known that for a surface in a 3-dimensional real space form the constancy of the mean curvature is equivalent to the harmonicity of the Gauss map. However, this is not true in general for surfaces in an arbitrary 3-dimensional…

We prove existence of thick geodesic triangulations of hyperbolic 3-manifolds and use this to prove existence of universal bounds on the principal curvatures of surfaces embedded in hyperbolic 3-manifolds.

In this paper, we consider the mean curvature flow of convex hypersurfaces in Euclidean spaces with a general forcing term. We show that the flow may shrink to a point in finite time if the forcing term is small, or exist for all times and…
