We show that a Riemannian 3-manifold with nonnegative scalar curvature and mean-convex boundary is flat if it contains an absolutely area-minimizing (in the free boundary sense) half-cylinder or strip. Analogous results also hold for a…

A marginally trapped surface in the four-dimensional Minkowski space is a spacelike surface whose mean curvature vector is lightlike at each point. We associate a geometrically determined moving frame field to such a surface and using the…

Seiberg-Witten theory leads to a delicate interplay between Riemannian geometry and smooth topology in dimension four. In particular, the scalar curvature of any metric must satisfy certain non-trivial estimates if the manifold in question…
