We show that if over some number field there exists a certain diagonal plane cubic curve that is locally solvable everywhere, but that does not have points over any cubic galois extension of the number field, then the algebraic part of the…

We prove that the 3-D free-surface incompressible Euler equations with regular initial geometries and velocity fields have solutions which can form a finite-time "splash" (or "splat") singularity first introduced in [9], wherein the…

Bernstein problem for affine maximal type equation has been a core problem in affine geometry. A conjecture proposed firstly by Chern for entire graph and then extended by Trudinger-Wang to its fully generality asserts that any Euclidean…

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 that in a closed Riemannian manifold with dimension between $3$ and $7$, either there are minimal hypersurfaces with arbitrarily large area, or there exist uncountably many stable minimal hypersurfaces. Moreover, the latter case…

Zarankiewicz's problem asks for the largest possible number of edges in a graph that does not contain a $K_{u,u}$ subgraph for a fixed positive integer $u$. Recently, Fox, Pach, Sheffer, Sulk and Zahl considered this problem for…

A timelike minimal surface in Minkowski 3-space is a surface whose induced metric is Lorentzian and with vanishing mean curvature. Such surfaces have many kinds of singularities. In this paper, we prove existence and non-existence theorems…

We explore a connection between the Finslerian area functional based on the Busemann-Hausdorff-volume form, and well-investigated Cartan functionals to solve Plateau's problem in Finsler 3-space, and prove higher regularity of solutions.…

We use integrable systems techniques to study the singularities of timelike non-minimal constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces in the Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space. The singularities arise at the boundary of the Birkhoff big cell of the loop…

In 1960s, Almgren initiated a program to find minimal hypersurfaces in compact manifolds using min-max method. This program was largely advanced by Pitts and Schoen-Simon in 1980s when the manifold has no boundary. In this paper, we finish…
