In this paper we study Moebius applicable surfaces, i.e., conformally immersed surfaces in Moebius 3-space which admit deformations preserving the Moebius metric. We show new characterizations of Willmore surfaces, Bonnet surfaces and…

In this paper, we study conformally flat hypersurfaces of dimension $n(\geq 4)$ in $\mathbb{S}^{n+1}$ using the framework of M\"obius geometry. First, we classify and explicitly express the conformally flat hypersurfaces of dimension…

A triangulated fixed connectivity surface model is investigated by using the Monte Carlo simulation technique. In order to have the macroscopic surface tension \tau, the vertices on the one-dimensional boundaries are fixed as the edges…

For an $H>0$ rotationally symmetric embedded torus $N_{0} \subset \mathbb{R}^{3}$, evolved by Inverse Mean Curvature Flow, we show that the total curvature $|A|$ remains bounded up to the singular time $T_{\max}$. We then show convergence…

In this paper, we show that, under arbitrary bounded Willmore energy assumption, embedded Willmore spheres (or more generally, embedded Willmore spheres under area constraint) with small diameter in a given $3$-dimensional Riemannian…

We show that if a closed $C^1$-smooth surface in a Riemannian manifold has bounded Kolasinski--Menger energy, then it can be triangulated with triangles whose number is bounded by the energy and the area. Each of the triangles is an image…

Suppose an orientation preserving action of a finite group $G$ on the closed surface $\Sigma_g$ of genus $g>1$ extends over the 3-torus $T^3$ for some embedding $\Sigma_g\subset T^3$. Then $|G|\le 12(g-1)$, and this upper bound $12(g-1)$…

For an integral $2$-varifold $V=\underline{v}(\Sigma,\theta_{\ge 1})$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with generalized mean curvature $H\in L^2$ such that $\mu(\mathbb{R}^n)=4\pi$ and $\int_{\Sigma}|H|^2d\mu\le 16\pi(1+\delta^2)$ , we show that $\Sigma$…

In previous report (J. Phys. A (1997) 30 4019-4029), I showed that the Dirac field confined in a surface immersed in $R^3$ by means of a mass type potential is governed by the Konopelchenko-Kenmotsu-Weierstrass-Enneper equation. In this…

We investigate surfaces with bounded L^p-norm of the fractional mean curvature, a quantity we shall refer to as fractional Willmore-type functional. In the subcritical case and under convexity assumptions we show how this…

In this paper we consider surfaces which are critical points of the Willmore functional subject to constrained area. In the case of small area we calculate the corrections to the intrinsic geometry induced by the ambient curvature. These…

Using methods of formal geometry, the Poisson sigma model on a closed surface is studied in perturbation theory. The effective action, as a function on vacua, is shown to have no quantum corrections if the surface is a torus or if the…

It is known that the energy of a weak solution to the Euler equation is conserved if it is slightly more regular than the Besov space $B^{1/3}_{3,\infty}$. When the singular set of the solution is (or belongs to) a smooth manifold, we…

This is the second of two articles in which we investigate the geometry of free boundary and capillary minimal surfaces in balls $B_R\subset\mathbb{S}^3$. In this article, we find monotonicity formulae which imply that capillary minimal…

The bending energy of any freely deformable closed surface is quadratic in its curvature. In the absence of constraints, it will be minimized when the surface adopts the form of a round sphere. If the surface is confined within a…

We consider an effective action of a compact (n-1)-torus on a smooth 2n-manifold with isolated fixed points. We prove that under certain conditions the orbit space is a closed topological manifold. In particular, this holds for certain…
