We construct families of embedded, singly periodic minimal surfaces of any genus $g$ in the quotient with any even number $2n>2$ of almost parallel Scherk ends. A surface in such a family looks like $n$ parallel planes connected by $n-1+g$…
In this paper, we propose a method of fundamental solutions for the problems of two-dimensional potential flow past a doubly-periodic array of obstacles. The solutions of these problems involve doubly-periodic functions, and it is difficult…
We present a computational approach to general hyperelliptic Riemann surfaces in Weierstrass normal form. The surface is either given by a list of the branch points, the coefficients of the defining polynomial or a system of cuts for the…
We discuss a special class of solutions to the minimal surface system. These are vector-valued functions that "decrease area" and are natural generalization of scalar functions. After defining area-decreasing maps, we show several classical…
Minimal surfaces of general type in Euclidean 4-space are characterized with the conditions that the ellipse of curvature at any point is centered at this point and has two different principal axes. Any minimal surface of general type…
We show that a problem on minimal periods of solutions of Lipschitz functional differential equations is closely related to the unique solvability of the periodic problem for linear functional differential equations. Sharp bounds for…
We study viscosity solutions to the classical one-phase problem and its thin counterpart. In low dimensions, we show that when the free boundary is the graph of a continuous function, the solution is the half-plane solution. This answers,…
We introduce a method-of-lines formulation of the closest point method, a numerical technique for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) defined on surfaces. This is an embedding method, which uses an implicit representation of the…
Minimal surfaces with planar curvature lines are classical geometric objects, having been studied since the late 19th century. In this paper, we revisit the subject from a different point of view. After calculating their metric functions…
We introduce a new technique, which we call the boundary method, for solving semi-discrete optimal transport problems with a wide range of cost functions. The boundary method reduces the effective dimension of the problem, thus improving…
We introduce the Loop Weierstrass Representation for minimal surfaces in Euclidean space and constant mean curvature 1 surfaces in hyperbolic space by applying integral system methods to the Weierstrass and Bryant representations. We unify…
We consider a surface $M$ immersed in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with induced metric $g=\psi\delta_2$ where $\delta_2$ is the two dimensional Euclidean metric. We then construct a system of partial differential equations that constrain $M$ to lift to a…
Lawson and Osserman proved that the Dirichlet problem for the minimal surface system is not always solvable in the class of Lipschitz maps. However, it is known that minimizing sequences (for area) of Lipschitz graphs converge to objects…
An interesting problem in classical differential geometry is to find methods to prove that two surfaces defined by different charts actually coincide up to position in space. In a previous paper we proposed a method in this direction for…
We introduce a new constructive method for establishing lower bounds on convergence rates of periodic homogenization problems associated with divergence type elliptic operators. The construction is applied in two settings. First, we show…
In this paper, we shall study the Dirichlet problem for the minimal surfaces equation. We prove some results about the boundary behaviour of a solution of this problem. We describe the behaviour of a non-converging sequence of solutions in…
We discover a family of closed, embedded minimal surfaces in the three-dimensional round sphere which includes new examples with low genus. The existence proof relies on an equivariant min-max procedure applied to a novel sweepout which is…
In this paper, we build properly embedded singly periodic minimal surfaces which have infinite total curvature in the quotient by the period. These surfaces are constructed by adding a handle to the toroidal half-plane layers defined by H.…
In this paper we generalize the periodic unfolding method and the notion of two-scale convergence on surfaces of periodic microstructures to locally periodic situations. The methods that we introduce allow us to consider a wide range of…
