We study the principal curvatures of properly embedded constant mean curvature hypersurfaces in the Anti-de Sitter space $\mathbb{H}^{n,1}$. We generalize the notion of convex hull and give an upper bound on the principal curvatures which…

Solving the Plateau problem means to find the surface with minimal area among all surfaces with a given boundary. Part of the problem actually consists of giving a suitable definition to the notions of 'surface', 'area' and 'boundary'. In…
