Based on properties of n-subharmonic functions we show that a complete, noncompact, properly embedded hypersurface with nonnegative Ricci curvature in hyperbolic space has an asymptotic boundary at infinity of at most two points. Moreover,…

This paper is about hypersurfaces with boundary lying in the Euclidean unit ball, which meet the unit sphere at a fixed angle $\theta\in(0,\frac{\pi}{2}]$. Such hypersurfaces are called $\theta$-capillary hypersurfaces and for those we…

Evolving smooth, compact hypersurfaces in R^{n+1} with normal speed equal to a positive power k of the mean curvature improves a certain 'isoperimetric difference' for k >= n-1. As singularities may develop before the volume goes to zero,…
