This paper brings several contributions to the classical Forster-Bell-Narasimhan conjecture and the Yang problem concerning the existence of proper and almost proper (hence complete) injective holomorphic immersions of open Riemann surfaces…
$f$-Biharmonic maps are generalizations of harmonic maps and biharmonic maps. In this paper, we obtain some descriptions of $f$-biharmonic curves in a space form. We also obtain a complete classification of proper $f$-biharmonic isometric…
We show that any isometric immersion of a flat plane domain into $\mathbb R^3$ is developable provided it enjoys the little H\"older regulairty $c^{1,2/3}$. In particular, isometric immersions of local $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity with $\alpha…
We study translating solitons for the mean curvature flow, $\Sigma^2\subseteq\mathbb{R}^3$ which are contained in slabs, and are of finite genus and finite entropy. As a first consequence of our results, we can enumerate connected…
We build an explicit $C^1$ isometric embedding $f_{\infty}:\mathbb{H}^2\to\mathbb{E}^3$ of the hyperbolic plane whose image is relatively compact. Its limit set is a closed curve of Hausdorff dimension 1. Given an initial embedding $f_0$,…
We study the existence of proper holomorphic embeddings of bordered Riemann surfaces into the complex plane C^2. Denote by M(R) the moduli space consisting of all equivalence classes of complex structures J on a given smooth oriented…
Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension 3, and let \mathscr{F} denote the collection of all embedded surfaces homeomorphic to \mathbb{RP}^2. We study the infimum of the areas of all surfaces in \mathscr{F}. This quantity is…
We examine the space of surfaces in $\RR^{3}$ which are complete, properly embedded and have nonzero constant mean curvature. These surfaces are noncompact provided we exclude the case of the round sphere. We prove that the space $\Mk$ of…
The main goal of this paper is to show a counterexample to the following conjecture: {\bf Conjecture} [Meeks, Sullivan]: If $f:M\to \mathbb{R}^3$ is a complete proper minimal immersion where $M$ is a Riemannian surface without boundary and…
Let $M$ be a Riemannian 3-manifold of nonnegative Ricci curvature, Ric $\geq 0.$ We suppose that $M$ is conformally flat and simply connected or more generally that it admits a conformal immersion into the standard 3-sphere. Let $\Sigma$ be…
We consider the class of all conformal mappings from a compact Riemann surface into the threedimensional or fourdimensional Euclidean space. A sequence in this class with bounded Willmore functional is shown to have a sequence of conformal…
We prove that any complete, embedded minimal surface $M$ with finite topology in a homogeneous three-manifold $N$ has positive injectivity radius. When one relaxes the condition that $N$ be homogeneous to that of being locally homogeneous,…
For a smooth closed embedded planar curve $\Gamma$, we consider the minimization problem of the Willmore energy among immersed surfaces of a given genus $\mathfrak{g}\geq1$ having the curve $\Gamma$ as boundary, without any prescription on…
Let $X$ denote a metric Lie group diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^3$ that admits an algebraic open book decomposition. In this paper we prove that if $\Sigma$ is an immersed surface in $X$ whose left invariant Gauss map is a diffeomorphism…
Let $\Omega$ be a compact and mean-convex domain with smooth boundary $\Sigma:=\partial\Omega$, in an initial data set $(M^3,g,K)$, which has no apparent horizon in its interior. If $\Sigma$ is spacelike in a spacetime $(\E^4,g\_\E)$ with…
In this paper, we prove that any mean curvature flow translator $\Sigma^2 \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ with finite total curvature and one end must be a plane. We also prove that if the translator $\Sigma$ has multiple ends, they are asymptotic to…
Since constant mean curvature surfaces in 3-space are special cases of isothermic and constrained Willmore surfaces, they give rise to three, apriori distinct, integrable systems. We provide a comprehensive and unified view of these…
We define and study embeddings of cycles in finite affine and projective planes. We show that for all $k$, $3\le k\le q^2$, a $k$-cycle can be embedded in any affine plane of order $q$. We also prove a similar result for finite projective…
We restrict our discussion to the orientable category. For $g > 1$, let $OE_g$ be the maximum order of a finite group $G$ acting on the closed surface $\Sigma_g$ of genus $g$ which extends over $(S^3, \Sigma_g)$, where the maximum is taken…
Let $M^{n+1}$ be a closed manifold of dimension $3\leq n+1\leq 7$. We show that for a $C^\infty$-generic metric $g$ on $M$, to any connected, closed, embedded, $2$-sided, stable, minimal hypersurface $S\subset (M,g)$ corresponds a sequence…
