For a compact 3-manifold $M$ which is a circle bundle over a compact Riemann surface $\Sigma$ with even Euler number $e(M)$, and with a Riemannian metric compatible with the bundle projection, there exists a compact minimal surface $S$ in…

We prove existence of partitions of an open set $\Omega$ with a given number of phases, which minimize the sum of the fractional perimeters of all the phases, with Dirichlet boundary conditions. In two dimensions we show that, if the…

For every $p,q\geq 1$, we construct minimal embeddings of $\mathbb{S}^p \times \mathbb{S}^q \times \mathbb{S}^1$ in $\mathbb{S}^{p + q + 2}$ by doubling the links of free-boundary minimal cones in $\mathbb{R}^{p+q+3}$ with bi-orthogonal…

We introduce the nonlocal analogue of the classical free boundary minimal hypersurfaces in an open domain $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ as the (boundaries of) critical points of the fractional perimeter $\operatorname{Per}_s(\cdot,\,\Omega )$…

In this paper we discuss nondegeneracy and stability properties of some special minimal hypersurfaces which are asymptotic to a given Lawson cone $C_{m,n}$, for $m,\,n\ge 2$. Then we use such hypersurfaces to construct solutions to the…

A recent trend in Non-Rigid Structure-from-Motion (NRSfM) is to express local, differential constraints between pairs of images, from which the surface normal at any point can be obtained by solving a system of polynomial equations. The…

In this paper we show that a nonlocal minimal surface which is a graph outside a cylinder is in fact a graph in the whole of the space. As a consequence, in dimension~$3$, we show that the graph is smooth. The proofs rely on convolution…

We prove that for an embedded minimal surface $\Sigma$ in $S^3$, the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian operator $\lambda_1$ satisfies $\lambda_1\geq 1+\epsilon_g$, where $\epsilon_g>0$ is a constant depending only on the genus $g$ of…
