Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension 3, and let \mathscr{F} denote the collection of all embedded surfaces homeomorphic to \mathbb{RP}^2. We study the infimum of the areas of all surfaces in \mathscr{F}. This quantity is…

Graph embedding is a powerful method in parallel computing that maps a guest network $G$ into a host network $H$. The performance of an embedding can be evaluated by certain parameters, such as the dilation, the edge congestion and the…

In this paper we study the the Gauss image problem, which is a generalization of the Aleksandrov problem in convex geometry. By considering a geometric flow involving Gauss curvature and functions of normal vectors and radial vectors, we…

The central idea of the proof is to show that a minimal flow v on a compact 3-manifold M implies the existence of a codimension one foliation F on it, which is transverse to the flow. If M is the 3-sphere, Novikov's theorem applies to show…

We show that a complete $m$-dimensional immersed submanifold $M$ of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ with $a(M)<1$ is properly immersed and have finite topology, where $a(M)\in [0,\infty]$ is an scaling invariant number that gives the rate that the norm of…

We discuss recent results on minimal surfaces and mean curvature flow, focusing on the classification and structure of embedded minimal surfaces and the stable singularities of mean curvature flow. This article is dedicated to Rick Schoen.

We embark in a program of studying the problem of better approximating surfaces by triangulations(triangular meshes) by considering the approximating triangulations as finite metric spaces and the target smooth surface as their…

We consider laminar flow in channels constrained geometrically to remain between two parallel planes; this geometry is typical of microchannels obtained with a single step by current microfabrication techniques. For pressure-driven Stokes…

This paper is the second in a series where we attempt to give a complete description of the space of all embedded minimal surfaces of fixed genus in a fixed (but arbitrary) closed 3-manifold. The key for understanding such surfaces is to…

Wintgen ideal submanifolds in space forms are those ones attaining equality pointwise in the so-called DDVV inequality which relates the scalar curvature, the mean curvature and the scalar normal curvature. They are Moebius invariant…
