We construct a parabolic entire minimal graph $S$ over a finite topology complete Riemannian surface $\Sigma$ of curvature $-1$ and infinite area (thus of non-parabolic conformal type). The vertical projection of this graph yields a…
We construct harmonic diffeomorphisms from the complex plane $C$ onto any Hadamard surface $M$ whose curvature is bounded above by a negative constant. For that, we prove a Jenkins-Serrin type theorem for minimal graphs in $M\times R$ over…
We investigate the minimal surface problem in the three dimensional Heisenberg group, H, equipped with its standard Carnot-Caratheodory metric. Using a particular surface measure, we characterize minimal surfaces in terms of a sub-elliptic…

In this paper, we establish a min-max theory for constructing minimal disks with free boundary in any closed Riemannian manifold. The main result is an effective version of the partial Morse theory for minimal disks with free boundary…
In this paper, we study the differential inclusion associated to the minimal surface system for two-dimensional graphs in $\mathbb{R}^{2 + n}$. We prove regularity of $W^{1,2}$ solutions and a compactness result for approximate solutions of…
Generalizing the Cauchy-Riemann equations, we construct the Osserman system of the first order for a pair $\left(f(x, y), g(x,y) \right)$ of two ${\mathbb{R}}$-valued functions on the domain $\Omega \subset {\mathbb{R}}^{2}$. The graph…
It is a well known phenomenon that many classical minimal surfaces in Euclidean space also exist with higher dihedral symmetry. More precisely, these surfaces are solutions to free boundary problems in a wedge bounded by two vertical planes…
This dissertation is devoted to the resolution of the Plateau problem in the case of polygonal boundary curves in three-dimensional Euclidean space. It relies on the method developed by Ren\'e Garnier and published in 1928 in a paper which…
In this paper, we consider minimal graphs in the three-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M\times\mathbb{R}$. We mainly estimate the Gaussian curvature of such surfaces. We consider the minimal disks and minimal graphs bounded by two Jordan…
In this paper, we prove a generalization of Rado's Theorem, a fundamental result of minimal surface theory, which says that minimal surfaces over a convex domain with graphical boundaries must be disks which are themselves graphical. We…
We recently established a Toponogov type triangle comparison theorem for a certain class of Finsler manifolds whose radial flag curvatures are bounded below by that of a von Mangoldt surface of revolution (arXiv:1205.3913). In this article,…
We study the Dirichlet problem at infinity on a Cartan-Hadamard manifold for a large class of operators containing in particular the p-Laplacian and the minimal graph operator.
We construct geometric barriers for minimal graphs in H^n xR. We prove the existence and uniqueness of a solution of the vertical minimal equation in the interior of a convex polyhedron in H^n extending continuously to the interior of each…
We consider any Finsler metric on a closed, orientable surface of genus greater than one. H. M. Morse proved that we can associate an asymptotic direction to minimal rays in the universal cover (in the Poincar\'e disc: a point on the unit…
We develop a theory of "minimal $\theta$-graphs" and characterize the behavior of limit laminations of such surfaces, including an understanding of their limit leaves and their curvature blow-up sets. We use this to prove that it is…
This is an expanded version of my plenary lecture at the 8th European Congress of Mathematics in Portoro\v{z} on 23 June 2021. The main part of the paper is a survey of recent applications of complex-analytic techniques to the theory of…
We investigate the class of geodesic metric discs satisfying a uniform quadratic isoperimetric inequality and uniform bounds on the length of the boundary circle. We show that the closure of this class as a subset of Gromov-Hausdorff space…
We show that there are minimal graphs in R^{n+1} whose intersection with the portion of the horizontal hyperplane contained in the unit ball has any prescribed geometry, up to a small deformation. The proof hinges on the construction of…
Let $G$ be a finite group acting on a connected open Riemann surface $X$ by holomorphic automorphisms and acting on a Euclidean space $\mathbb R^n$ $(n\ge 3)$ by orthogonal transformations. We identify a necessary and sufficient condition…
