Many geometry processing techniques require the solution of partial differential equations (PDEs) on manifolds embedded in $\mathbb{R}^2$ or $\mathbb{R}^3$, such as curves or surfaces. Such manifold PDEs often involve boundary conditions…

Let $M\subset\mathbb{R}^3$ be a properly embedded, connected, complete surface with boundary a convex planar curve $C$, satisfying an elliptic equation $H=f(H^2-K)$, where $H$ and $K$ are the mean and the Gauss curvature respectively -…

We show a generic finiteness result for least area planes in 3-dimensional hyperbolic space. Moreover, we prove that the space of minimal immersions of disk into hyperbolic space is a submanifold of a product bundle over a space of…

The main point of this paper is that, under suitable conditions on the mean curvature and the Ricci curvature of the ambient space, we can extend Choi-Schoen's Compactness Theorem to compact embedded minimal surfaces to simple immersed…

We show that if $D \subset \mathbb P^N$ is obtained from a codimension two local complete intersection $C$ by adding embedded points of multiplicity $\leq 3$, then $D$ is a flat limit of $C$ and isolated points. As applications, we…

We restate the semistable reduction theorem from geometric invariant theory in the context of spaces of morphisms on $\mathbb{P}^{n}$. For every complete curve $C$ downstairs, we get a $\mathbb{P}^{n}$-bundle on an abstract curve $D$…

We construct a simply connected $2-$complex $C$ embeddable in $3-$space such that for any embedding of $C$ in $\mathbb S^3$, any edge contraction forms a minor of the $2-$complex not embeddable in $3-$space. We achieve this by proving that…

We give a generalization of Meeks-Yau's celebrated embeddedness result for the solutions of the Plateau problem for extreme curves.

We show that immersed minimal surfaces of $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ with bounded curvature and proper self intersections are proper. We also show that the restriction of the immersing map to a wide component is always proper. When the immersing map…

In this article we show that every closed orientable smooth $4$--manifold admits a smooth embedding in the complex projective $3$--space.

If M is a manifold with compressible boundary, we analyze essential disks in M, as well as incompressible, but not necessarily boundary incompressible, surfaces in M. We are most interested in the case where M is a handlebody or compression…

We consider compact connected minimal surfaces, with a pair of boundary curves (not necessarily convex) in distinct planes, that have least-area amongst all orientable surfaces with the same boundary. When the planes containing these two…

A surface embedded in space, in such a way that each point has a neighborhood within which the surface is a terrain, projects to an immersed surface in the plane, the boundary of which is a self-intersecting curve. Under what circumstances…

We show that the following algorithmic problem is decidable: given a $2$-dimensional simplicial complex, can it be embedded (topologically, or equivalently, piecewise linearly) in $\mathbf{R}^3$? By a known reduction, it suffices to decide…

We prove that for any given compact Riemannian manifold $N$ of dimension $n+1 \geq 3$ and any non-negative Lipschitz function $g$ on $N$, there exists a quasi-embedded, boundaryless hypersurface $M \subset N,$ of class $C^{2, \alpha}$ for…

Any sequence of properly embedded minimal disks in an open subset U of Euclidean 3-space has a subsequence such that the curvatures blow up on a relatively closed subset K of U and such that the disks converge in the complement of K to a…

We prove that compact 3-manifolds $M$ of constant curvature +1 with boundary a minimal surface are locally naturally parametrized by the conformal class of the boundary metric $\gamma$ in the Teichmuller space of $\partial M$, when…

Let $C$ be a smooth (irreducible) curve of degree $d$ in $\mathbb{P}^{2}$. Let $\mathbb{P}^{2} \hookrightarrow \mathbb{P}^{5}$ be the Veronese embedding and let $\mathcal{I}_{C}$ denote the homogeneous ideal of $C$ on $\mathbb{P}^{5}$. In…

For 3 $\leq$ n $\leq$ 7, we prove that a bumpy closed Riemannian n-manifold contains a sequence of connected embedded closed minimal surfaces with unbounded area.

We prove a structural theorem that provides a precise local picture of how a sequence of closed embedded minimal hypersurfaces with uniformly bounded index (and volume if the ambient dimension is greater than three) in a Riemannian manifold…
