We develop a min-max theory for the construction of capillary surfaces in 3-manifolds with smooth boundary. In particular, for a generic set of ambient metrics, we prove the existence of nontrivial, smooth, almost properly embedded surfaces…

We prove some Bernstein theorems for entire space-like submanifolds in pseudo-Euclidean spaces and, as a corollary, we obtain a new proof of the Calabi-Pogorelov theorem on global solutions of Monge-Ampere equations.

On any space-like W-surface in the three-dimensional Minkowski space we introduce locally natural principal parameters and prove that such a surface is determined uniquely up to motion by a special invariant function, which satisfies a…

We prove that any strongly regular Weingarten surface in Euclidean space carries locally geometric principal parameters. The basic theorem states that any strongly regular Weingarten surface is determined up to a motion by its structural…

We derive curvature estimates for minimal submanifolds in Euclidean space for arbitrary dimension and codimension via Gauss map. Thus, Schoen-Simon-Yau's results and Ecker-Huisken's results are generalized to higher codimension. In this way…

Let $ \Omega \subsetneq \mathbf{R}^n\,(n\geq 2)$ be an unbounded convex domain. We study the minimal surface equation in $\Omega$ with boundary value given by the sum of a linear function and a bounded uniformly continuous function in $…
