There exists a holomorphic quadratic differential defined on any $H-$ surface immersed in the homogeneous space $\mathbb{E}(\kappa,\tau)$ given by U. Abresch and H. Rosenberg, called the Abresch-Rosenberg differential. However, there were…

We review the following subjects: 1. Basic theory on algebraic curves and their moduli space, 2. Schottky uniformization theory of Riemann surfaces, and its extension called arithmetic uniformization theory, 3. Application to these theories…

In this work we study surfaces in radial conformally flat spaces. We characterize surfaces of rotation with constant Gaussian and Extrinsic curvature in these radial 3-spaces. We prove that all the spheres in the conformal 3-space have…

A projective hypersurface is nodal if it does not have singularities worse than simple nodes. We calculate the rational cohomology of the spaces of equations of nodal cubic and quartic plane curves and also nodal cubic surfaces in the…

We study surfaces with a constant ratio of principal curvatures in Euclidean and simply isotropic geometries and characterize rotational, channel, ruled, helical, and translational surfaces of this kind under some technical restrictions…

We investigate geometric properties of surfaces given by certain formulae. In particular, we calculate the singular curvature and the limiting normal curvature of such surfaces along the set of singular points consisting of singular points…

We investigate the class of degenerations of smooth cubic surfaces which are obtained from degenerating their Cox rings to toric algebras. More precisely, we work in the spirit of Sturmfels and Xu who use the theory of Khovanskii bases to…

We get new results (and rederive some know ones) on smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^n$ by unifying several view points into a coherent general view. Namely, we show and use new relations of the evolute (caustic) with the curvature ellipse,…

For a parabolic surface partial differential equation coupled to surface evolution, convergence of the spatial semidiscretization is studied in this paper. The velocity of the evolving surface is not given explicitly, but depends on the…

The Laplace-Beltrami problem on closed surfaces embedded in three dimensions arises in many areas of physics, including molecular dynamics (surface diffusion), electromagnetics (harmonic vector fields), and fluid dynamics (vesicle…

We prove that finite area isolated singularities of surfaces with constant positive curvature in R^3 are removable singularities, branch points or immersed conical singularities. We describe the space of immersed conical singularities of…

We give simple criteria for the singularities appearing on surfaces codimension less than or equal to two. As applications, we give conditions for codimension two singularities that appear in ruled surfaces and center maps of surfaces in…

This is a case study of the algebraic boundary of convex hulls of varieties. We focus on surfaces in fourspace to showcase new geometric phenomena that neither curves nor hypersurfaces do. Our method is a detailed analysis of a general…

We study some geometrical aspects of two dimensional orientable surfaces arrising from the study of CP^N sigma models. To this aim we employ an identification of R^(N(N+2)) with the Lie algebra su(N+1) by means of which we construct a…

A mean-field theory is developed for the scale-invariant length distributions observed during the coarsening of one-dimensional faceted surfaces. This theory closely follows the Lifshitz-Slyozov-Wagner theory of Ostwald ripening in…

We study the global geometry of surfaces in Sasakian space forms whose mean curvature vector is parallel in the normal bundle (these include the Riemannian Heisenberg space of dimension $2n+1$). We prove a codimension reduction theorem. We…

In this paper we develop the compactness theorem for $\lambda$-surface in $\mathbb R^3$ with uniform $\lambda$, genus, and area growth. This theorem can be viewed as a generalization of Colding-Minicozzi's compactness theorem for…

We study the Crofton's formula in the Lorentzian AdS$_3$ and find that the area of a generic space-like two dimensional surface is given by the flux of space-like geodesics. The "complexity=volume" conjecture then implies a new holographic…

We consider the polynomial algebra $\mathbb{C}[\mathbf{z}]:=\mathbb{C}[z_1,\,z_2,\,z_3]$ and the polynomial $f:=z_1^3+z_2^3+z_3^3+3qz_1z_2z_3$, where $q\in \mathbb{C}$. Our aim is to compute the Hochschild homology and cohomology of the…

Using the method of moving frames we analyze the algebra of differential invariants for surfaces in three-dimensional affine geometry. For elliptic, hyperbolic, and parabolic points, we show that if the algebra of differential invariants is…
