This note concerns the area growth and bottom spectrum of complete stable minimal surfaces in a three-dimensional manifold with scalar curvature bounded from below. When the ambient manifold is the Euclidean space, by an elementary…
We study the higher expansion properties of locally symmetric spaces, with a particular focus on octonionic hyperbolic manifolds. We show that codimension two minimal submanifolds of compact octonionic locally symmetric spaces must have…
We present a global representation for surfaces in 3-dimensional hyperbolic space with constant mean curvature 1 (CMC-1 surfaces) in terms of holomorphic spinors. This is a modification of Bryant's representation. It is used to derive…
The hexagon is the least-perimeter tile in the Euclidean plane. On hyperbolic surfaces, the isoperimetric problem differs for every given area. Cox conjectured that a regular $k$-gonal tile with 120-degree angles is isoperimetric for its…
In this paper we examine the geometry of minimal surfaces of arithmetic hyperbolic 3-manifolds. In particular, we give bounds on the totally geodesic 2-systole, construct infinitely many incommensurable manifolds with the same initial…
We establish parabolicity and quadratic area growth for minimal surfaces-with-boundary contained in regions of R^3 which are within a sub-logarithmic factor of the exterior of a cone. Unlike previous work showing that these two properties…
We investigate complete minimal submanifolds $f\colon M^3\to\Hy^n$ in hyperbolic space with index of relative nullity at least one at any point. The case when the ambient space is either the Euclidean space or the round sphere was already…
We prove that a C2 Hamiltonian system H in M is globally hyperbolic if any of the following statements holds: H is robustly topologically stable; H is stably shadowable; H is stably expansive; and H has the stable weak specification…
This paper characterizes a compact piece of the helicoid $H_C$ in a solid cylinder $C \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ from the following two perspectives. First, under reasonable conditions, $H_C$ has the smallest area among all immersed surfaces…
The hexagon is the least-perimeter tile in the Euclidean plane for any given area. On hyperbolic surfaces, this "isoperimetric" problem differs for every given area, as solutions do not scale. Cox conjectured that a regular $k$-gonal tile…
In this pedagogical note we present a short proof of the following main result of arxiv.org/abs/0911.5319, and clarify its relation to the isoperimetric problem. On the hyperbolic plane consider triangles ABC with fixed lengths of AB and…
We prove an existence and uniqueness theorem about spherical helicoidal (in particular, rotational) surfaces with prescribed mean or Gaussian curvature in terms of a continuous function depending on the distance to its axis. As an…
The existence of embedded minimal surfaces in non-compact 3-manifolds remains a largely unresolved and challenging problem in geometry. In this paper, we address several open cases regarding the existence of finite-area, embedded, complete,…
Stable compact minimal submanifolds of the product of a sphere and any Riemannian manifold are classified whenever the dimension of the sphere is at least three. The complete classification of the stable compact minimal submanifolds of the…
For a proper immersed minimal disk in $\bf{R}^N$ with quadratic area growth, we show that any harmonic function whose negative part grows at a slow sub-linear rate is constant. This leads to a higher codimensional Bernstein theorem for…
This} paper presents relations between least area and normal surfaces, embedded in either a Euclidean or hyperbolic $3$-manifold. A relaxed version of normal surfaces, termed quasi-normal, is introduced, and it is shown that under…
In this paper, we find lower bounds for volumes of hyperbolic 3-manifolds with various topological conditions. Let V_3 = 1.01494 denote the volume of a regular ideal simplex in hyperbolic 3-space. As a special case of the main theorem, if a…
In this paper, we show that there are non-properly embedded minimal surfaces with finite topology in a simply connected Riemannian 3-manifold with nonpositive curvature. We show this result by constructing a non-properly embedded minimal…
We show that a one-ended simply connected at infinity hyperbolic group $G$ with enough codimension-1 surface subgroups has $\partial G \cong \mathbb{S}^2$. Combined with a result of Markovic, our result gives a new characterization of…
