It is known that an $n$-dimensional convex body which is typical in the sense of Baire category, shows a simple, but highly non-intuitive curvature behaviour: at almost all of its boundary points, in the sense of measure, all curvatures are…

Fold singular points play important roles in the theory of maximal surfaces. For example, if a maximal surface admits fold singular points, it can be extended to a timelike minimal surface analytically. Moreover, there is a duality between…

We study the existence problem for achronal hypersurfaces $M \hookrightarrow \overline{M}$ in a globally hyperbolic spacetime, whose mean curvature is a prescribed -- possibly singular -- source, and whose boundary is a given smooth…

In the present article we study a special class of surfaces in the four-dimensional Euclidean space, which are one-parameter systems of meridians of the standard rotational hypersurface. They are called meridian surfaces. We show that a…

A shear-free ray congruence on Minkowski space is a 3-parameter family of null geodesics along which Lie transport of a complementary 2-dimensional spacelike subspace (called the screen space) is conformal. Such congruences are defined by…

We construct a class of Lorentzian harmonic maps into the de-Sitter $2$-space satisfying the eigenvalue equation $\Box N=2H^2N$ for the d'Alambert operator $\Box$ and a non-zero constant $H$ from framed null curves. We also investigate two…

We introduce a class of zero mean curvature surfaces with singularities in the isotropic 3-space, called ZMC-faces. As a main result, we establish three Osserman-type inequalities for a ZMC-face under certain assumptions on both…
