We develop a new method to construct explicit, regular minimal surfaces in Euclidean space that are defined on the entire complex plane with controlled geometry. More precisely we show that for a large class of planar curves $(x(t), y(t))$…
The classical Bj\"orling problem is to find the minimal surface containing a given real analytic curve with tangent planes prescribed along the curve. We consider the generalization of this problem to non-minimal constant mean curvature…
The Bj\"orling problem amounts to the construction of a minimal surface from a real-analytic curve with a given real-analytic normal vector field. We approximate that solution locally by discrete minimal surfaces as special discrete…
We study points of moderately low degree on a curve $C$ over a number field, which is embedded on a nice toric surface $S$. Recently, Smith and Vogt related the linear equivalence classes of such points to intersections of $C$ with curves…
This paper proposes a simple technique of curve and surface construction with B-splines. Given a control polygon or a control mesh together with node ordinates corresponding to all control points, a rational curve or surface is obtained by…
A product-quotient surface is the minimal resolution of the singularities of the quotient of a product of two curves by the action of a finite group acting separately on the two factors. We classify all minimal product-quotient surfaces of…
In this article, we study an analog of the Bj\"orling problem for isothermic surfaces (that are more general than minimal surfaces): given a real analytic curve $\gamma$ in ${\mathbb R}^3$, and two analytic non-vanishing orthogonal vector…
In this paper, we study the problem of computing a homotopy from a planar curve $C$ to a point that minimizes the area swept. The existence of such a minimum homotopy is a direct result of the solution of Plateau's problem. Chambers and…
The singular Bj\" orling problem and its solution for timelike minimal surfaces is a well-known result in minimal surface theory. In this article, we give a different proof of this theorem using split-harmonic maps. This is motivated by a…
An interesting problem in classical differential geometry is to find methods to prove that two surfaces defined by different charts actually coincide up to position in space. In a previous paper we proposed a method in this direction for…
The first main purpose of this paper is to contribute to the existing knowledge about the complex projective surfaces $S$ of general type with $p_g(S) = 0$ and their moduli spaces, constructing 19 new families of such surfaces with hitherto…
We demonstrate that the operation of taking disjoint unions of J-holomorphic curves (and thus obtaining new J-holomorphic curves) has a Seiberg-Witten counterpart. The main theorem asserts that, given two solutions (A_i, psi_i), i=0,1 of…
Let $p>3$ be a prime and $E$ be a supersingular elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{F}_{p^2}$. Let $c$ be a prime with $c < 3p/16$ and $G$ be a subgroup of $E[c]$ of order $c$. The pair $(E,G)$ is called a supersingular elliptic curve with…
We study the Dirichlet problem associated to the equation for self-similar surfaces for graphs over the Euclidean plane with a disk removed. We show the existence of a solution provided the boundary conditions on the boundary circle are…
We prove existence and uniqueness of the solution of the Bj\"orling problem for minimal surfaces in a three-dimensional Lie group.
We give a definition of isoclinic parametric surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^4_2$ and prove that such an isoclinic conformal immersion comes from two holomorphic functions. A Cauchy problem was proposed and solved, namely: construct an isoclinic…
If $\alpha\in\r$, an $\alpha$-stationary surface in Euclidean space is a surface $\Sigma$ whose mean curvature $H$ satisfies $H(p)=\alpha |p|^{-2} \langle\nu,p\rangle$, $p\in\Sigma$. These surfaces generalize in dimension two a classical…
In this paper we will show the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the Bj\"orling problem for minimal surfaces in a 3-dimensional Lorentzian Lie group.
We show that the autoequivalence group of the derived category of any smooth projective toric surface is generated by the standard equivalences and spherical twists obtained from -2-curves. In many cases we give all relations between these…
A $\textit{spherical $t$-design curve}$ was defined by Ehler and Gr\"{o}chenig to be a continuous, piecewise smooth, closed curve on the sphere with finitely many self-intersections whose associated line integral applied to any polynomial…
