Let $M$ be an open Riemann surface and let $\Lambda\subset M$ be a closed discrete subset. In this paper, we prove the existence of complete conformal minimal immersions $M\to\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\ge 3$, with prescribed values on $\Lambda$ and…

This paper is the first 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 Riemannian 3-manifold. The key for understanding such…

We establish the lower bound of $4\pi(1+g)$ for the area of the Gauss map of any immersion of a closed oriented surface of genus $g$ into $\mathbb{S}^3$, taking values in the Grassmannian of $2$-planes in $\mathbb{R}^4$. This lower bound is…

It was proven by Hitchin that any solution of his evolution equations for a half-flat SU(3)-structure on a compact six-manifold M defines an extension of M to a seven-manifold with holonomy in G_2. We give a new proof, which does not…

In this paper, we investigate nilpotent and unimodular solvable Lie groups that admit quasi-Einstein metrics $(M,g,X)$ with $X$ a left-invariant vector field, which we call totally left-invariant quasi-Einstein metrics. We give a complete…

We show that a properly immersed minimal hypersurface in M x R_+ equals some M x {c} when M is a complete, recurrent n-dimensional Riemannian manifold with bounded curvature. If on the other hand, M has nonnegative Ricci curvature with…

We prove that for any open Riemann surface $N$ and finite subset $Z\subset \mathbb{S}^1=\{z\in\mathbb{C}\,|\;|z|=1\},$ there exist an infinite closed set $Z_N \subset \mathbb{S}^1$ containing $Z$ and a null holomorphic curve…

The Solomon-Tits theorem says that the poset of proper non-trivial subspaces of a finite-dimensional vector space has realisation equivalent to a wedge of spheres. In this paper we prove a variant of this result for collections of geodesic…

In this paper we have proved several approximation theorems for the family of minimal surfaces in R^3 that imply, among other things, that complete minimal surfaces are dense in the space of all minimal surfaces endowed with the topology of…

We consider surfaces immersed in three-dimensional pseudohermitian manifolds. We define the notion of (p-)mean curvature and of the associated (p-)minimal surfaces, extending some concepts previously given for the (flat) Heisenberg group.…

We state and prove a corrected version of a theorem of Singerman, which relates the existence of symmetries (anticonformal involutions) of a quasiplatonic Riemann surface $\mathcal S$ (one uniformised by a normal subgroup $N$ of finite…

In this survey, we discuss various aspects of the minimal surface equation in the three-sphere S^3. After recalling the basic definitions, we describe a family of immersed minimal tori with rotational symmetry. We then review the known…

Minimal surfaces in closed 3-manifolds are classically constructed via the Almgren-Pitts approach. The Allen-Cahn approximation has proved to be a powerful alternative, and Chodosh and Mantoulidis (in Ann. Math. 2020) used it to give a new…

In this paper we consider an inverse problem of determining a minimal surface embedded in a Riemannian manifold. We show under a topological condition that if $\Sigma$ is a $2$-dimensional embedded minimal surface, then the knowledge of the…

Let $M$ be an open Riemann surface. It was proved by Alarc\'on and Forstneri\v{c} (arXiv:1408.5315) that every conformal minimal immersion $M\to\mathbb R^3$ is isotopic to the real part of a holomorphic null curve $M\to\mathbb C^3$. In this…

In this article, we give the integrability conditions for the existence of an isometric immersion from an orientable simply connected surface having prescribed Gauss map and positive extrinsic curvature into some unimodular Lie groups. In…

Half-flat SU(3)-structures are the natural initial values for Hitchin's evolution equations whose solutions define parallel G_2-structures. Together with the results of arXiv:0912.3486v1, the results of this article completely solve the…

As a generalization of slant submersions (Sahin, 2011), semi-slant submersions (Park and Prasad), and slant Riemannian maps (Sahin), we define the notion of semi-slant Riemannian maps from almost Hermitian manifolds to Riemannian manifolds.…

We establish the following theorem of Bernstein type for the first Heisenberg group: Let S be a C^2 connected H-minimal surface which is a graph over some plane P, then S is either a non-characteristic vertical plane, or its generalized…

We introduce a special class of nilpotent Lie groups of step 2, that generalizes the so called $H$(eisenberg)-type groups, defined by A. Kaplan in 1980. We change the presence of inner product to an arbitrary scalar product and relate the…
