Finite topology self translating surfaces to mean curvature flow of surfaces constitute a key element for the analysis of Type II singularities from a compact surface, since they arise in a limit after suitable blow-up scalings around the…

In 1997, Collin proved that any properly embedded minimal surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with finite topology and more than one end has finite total Gaussian curvature. Hence, by an earlier result of Lopez and Ros, catenoids are the only…

This article explains a program to study complete and properly embedded minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ developed jointly with W.H. Meeks and A. Ros in the last three decades. It follows closely the structure of my invited ICM talk with…

In this paper, we use the conjugate surface construction to prove the existence of certain non-periodic symmetric immersed minimal surfaces. These surfaces have finite total curvature and embedded catenoid ends, and they have positive genus…

We prove that, given a compact Riemann surface $\Sigma$ and disjoint finite sets $\varnothing\neq E\subset\Sigma$ and $\Lambda\subset\Sigma$, every map $\Lambda \to \mathbb{R}^3$ extends to a complete conformal minimal immersion…

A very interesting problem in the classical theory of minimal surfaces consists of the classification of such surfaces under some geometrical and topological constraints. In this short paper, we give a brief summary of the known…

We prove that closed surfaces of all topological types, except for the non-orientable odd-genus ones, can be minimally embedded in the Riemannian product of a sphere and a circle of arbitrary radius. We illustrate it by obtaining some…

In this paper we shall establish that properly embedded constant mean curvature one surfaces in H^3 of finite topology are of finite total curvature and each end is regular. In particular, this implies the horosphere is the only simply…

We extend the theory of complete minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ of finite total curvature to the wider class of elliptic special Weingarten surfaces of finite total curvature; in particular, we extend the seminal works of L. Jorge and…

We study the rigidity of complete, embedded constant mean curvature surfaces in R^3. Among other things, we prove that when such a surface has finite genus, then intrinsic isometries of the surface extend to isometries of R^3 or its…

In [15] Robert Osserman proved that the image of the Gauss map of a complete, non flat minimal surface in R^3 with finite total curvature miss at most 3 points. In this paper we prove that the Gauss map of such a minimal immersions omit at…

We present new examples of complete embedded self-similar surfaces under mean curvature by gluing a sphere and a plane. These surfaces have finite genus and are the first examples of self-shrinkers in $\mathbb R^3$ that are not rotationally…

In this paper we find, for any arbitrary finite topological type, a compact Riemann surface $\mathcal{M},$ an open domain $M\subset\mathcal{M}$ with the fixed topological type, and a conformal complete minimal immersion $X:M\to\R^3$ which…

We show that immersed minimal surfaces of $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ with bounded curvature and proper self intersections are proper. We also show that the restriction of the immersing map to a wide component is always proper. When the immersing map…

In this paper we survey a number of recent results concerning the existence and moduli spaces of solutions of various geometric problems on noncompact manifolds. The three problems which we discuss in detail are: I. Complete properly…

Surfaces of finite geometric type are complete, immersed into the tree-dimensional Euclidean space with finite total curvature and Gauss map extending to an oriented compact surface as a smooth branched covering map over the unit sphere of…

We show the existence of various families of properly embedded singly periodic minimal surfaces in R^3 with finite arbitrary genus and Scherk type ends in the quotient. The proof of our results is based on the gluing of small perturbations…

This paper proves that classical minimal surfaces of arbitrary topological type with total boundary curvature at most 4\pi must be smoothly embedded. Related results are proved for varifolds and for soap film surfaces.

We study the old problem of isometrically embedding a 2-dimensional Riemannian manifold into Euclidean 3-space. It is shown that if the Gaussian curvature vanishes to finite order and its zero set consists of two Lipschitz curves…

The symmetries of surfaces which can be embedded into the symmetries of the 3-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^3$ are easier to feel by human's intuition. We give the maximum order of finite group actions on $(\mathbb{R}^3, \Sigma)$…
